MOSCOT unveils fall eyewear collection for 2026

MOSCOT, the 111-year-old heritage New York City-based eyewear brand, has unveiled its fall collection for 2026 that is rooted in optical expertise and is a tribute to the art and science of seeing clearly – and looking good doing it.

The Fall 2026 Collection showcases handcrafted Italian acetate, lightweight metal constructions, real hardware, and thoughtfully engineered features – from comfortable keyhole bridges and titanium nose pads to durable multi-barrel hinges. Signature MOSCOT details like raised rivets, acetate temple tips, and custom made tints for sun styles reinforce the brand’s commitment to both function and form.

Each frame is designed not only to stand out stylistically, but to perform. True optical expertise lies in the balance: proportion, weight distribution, fit, and lens customisation. It’s the invisible work that makes a frame feel effortless from the first try-on to the last wear of the day.“This collection is a nod to our roots,” says Dr. Harvey Moscot, fourth generation and CEO of the brand. “Optical expertise means understanding the complexities of vision – prescription strength, lens thickness, balance, and durability – and designing frames that support those needs from the very start. That responsibility has guided us since 1915, and it continues to guide every frame we make.”

The collection includes designs like the BISHEART – plain, simple yet incredibly chic, the DIBBIK – round glasses finished with acetate accents, and the LIKTIG, which was inspired by Dr. Noel, the longtime principal of Seward Park High School just two blocks from MOSCOT’s Lower East Side shop.

There is also the MINYAN, an aviator-style eyewear, the SHANEKITE, meant to exude confidence and boldness and the SHMECKEL. Speaking about the designing process, Zack Moscot, fifth generation and chief design officer of the brand, explained that when creating eyewear, they see how a frame ‘lives on someone’.

“Our family has spent over 110 fitting faces and fine-tuning lenses. When we design a collection, we think about optical needs, how a frame lives on someone – how it sits, how it moves, how it feels. The assortment is intentionally built to accommodate a full spectrum. That’s the difference. We don’t design first and hope it works optically. We design with optical requirements in mind from the start,” he explained. 

The MOSCOT eyewear fall 2026 collection is now available online and at Moscot London locations: Beak Street, Covent Garden, Marylebone and King’s Road.
