ye Q’s love of fashion, luxury and eyewear led us to the London based
fashion house that is LINDA FARROW. Since we consider ourselves
“hipsters” we were dying to touch, feel and see what all the fuss was
about. Why was this brand so huge with London society and on every
fashion runway and popular with all the celebrities? It only took one look
and our questions were answered; Street style, cool, luxurious quality and
attention to detail.
The journey began in SILMO, Paris in 2013 when we met up with SIMON
JABLON... How we met Simon is by itself amazing. We were having
a breezy chat and running around the booth like kids in a candy store
unknowing to us who Simon was... Whether it was our West Indian accent amongst the French or the mere fact that we were just bubbling
with excitement about the brand, Simon came over to us and personally sat and chatted with us about the collection for over an hour...
Sam ...called him the “Brand Manager”, he laughed casually in his laid
back style and told us that he was in fact the owner and in fact Linda
Farrow’s son... His cool sophistication was really everything you would

Barbados and Rihanna. He was proud that she was a huge fan of the brand
amongst the Hollywood’s A-list... then he told us the most amazing story.
