    XXL for the ladies??

    Just wondering, is there a lady's line of frames that is dedicated for the larger woman? With eye sizes 54 and larger?
    ie, XXL is our go to line for large men's sizes.

    Gee, I thought those for the ladies were measured in A, B, C, & D designations.

    Menizzi Eyewear also makes a line called Biggu that may work. We don't carry it but I've checked them out online. They're pretty funky.

    It's not exactly a ladies line, but check out Michael Ryan from Europa International for some relatively trendy styles and Tura for the semi-glitzy standby.

    A&A the same vender that does XXL has the Alexander line for women that include some nice large sizes. Lately it's my "go to" line for big head women.

    Many of the Danish and German lines have larger sizes, check out ProDesign and Brendel.
