Bonjour from MOSCOT Paris!

on Nov 29 2018

We’re thrilled to announce the opening of our new standalone flagship shop in Paris! Located on the corner of Rue du Temple in the historic Marais district, we’re bringing downtown NYC to the City of Lights! Located at 26 Rue du Temple, 75004 Paris, France. Our third European mono-branded shop will showcase the full breadth of the MOSCOT eyewear collection with familiar touches that are distinctly MOSCOT, including tchotchkes, vintage furniture and artifacts from the family archives, tin ceilings made in New York that are quintessential to historical Lower East Side architecture, and the overall nostalgic feeling of having stepped into Great Grandma Sylvia Moscot’s living room. We’re especially excited about the location of our newest Shop, as Zack Moscot, 5th Generation Chief Design Officer shares, “Rue du Temple and this area of the Marais was once known for small specialty shops and vendors that sold various essentials and knickknacks, not unlike the historic marketplace of Orchard Street and the Lower East Side, where immigrants such as my Great Great Grandfather, Hyman Moscot, sold wares from their pushcarts.” 4th Generation owner and CEO Harvey Moscot adds, “We’re humbled by the continued support from our fans worldwide, especially in France. This unique corner location allows us to tell our story in a way that never compromises the company’s key pillars of service, quality, and always putting our customer first.” “To shop at MOSCOT is to have a distinctively New York, cultural experience. Here, traditional, old-world charm unites with contemporary tastes, with a dash of Lower East Side personality.” We look forward to bringing 100+ years of eyewear expertise and timeless, classic designs to Paris as we continue to carry on the MOSCOT Legacy.

ANDY COHEN | THE VANTZ & VELVYL

on Oct 14 2018

Andy Cohen, Emmy Award-winning producer, writer, radio personality, and host for Bravo best known for Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, has become a new classic - like his VANTZ in Black. If The LEMTOSH had a smart aleck little brother, his name would be VANTZ. With its subtle curves, small diamond rivets, and playful array of colorways, The VANTZ has the same great DNA as the beloved LEMTOSH, with its own feeling of flare. His other signature look - or persona - is The VELVYL. A moniker for Uncle Hesh's best friend William when they were farshnoshket, VELVYL wore these glasses, and only these glasses, his entire life. Lookin' for a sunglass? Shop The VANTZ SUN and The VELVYL SUN. Craving more MOSCOT? Read on for highlights, celebrity sightings, insider info, & surprise announcements in MOSCOT Moments.
