Oscar x Frank | The Estate Photochromic Sunglasses in Light Tort
Yellow photochromic lenses deepen in bright sunlight and lighten again indoors, so one pair covers the whole day.
The Oscar x Frank Estate Sunglasses in Light Tort take the narrow, slightly upswept frame of the nineties and rebuild it by hand. The shape sits close to the face and reads sharp rather than oversized, with fine gold rivets at the outer corners as the only decoration.
The light tortoiseshell acetate is warm and honeyed, a softer alternative to a dark tort, and it sits well against most skin tones. The frame is cut from Mazzucchelli 1849 Italian acetate and hung on Italian Visottica Comotec hinges with rubber coated screws, which is the detail that keeps a frame feeling solid years in.
The lens is the point of difference. Essilor optics in a yellow photochromic tint react to UV, so they deepen outdoors in strong Cape Town light and clear as you step inside, with an anti reflective coating on the inner surface to stop glare bouncing back at you.

The Boetiek Experience
Boetiek is a curated women’s clothing boutique based on Kloof Street in Cape Town, offering a considered selection of international and local brands. Each piece is chosen with a focus on quality, fit, and effortless styling—designed to form part of a modern, timeless wardrobe.
At the heart of Boetiek is a vision of thoughtful dressing, where fewer, better pieces create a wardrobe that feels both elevated and enduring. Our collections are carefully selected from brands that share this philosophy—balancing contemporary design with timeless appeal, and prioritising craftsmanship, fabric, and silhouette. Alongside our international labels, we proudly support South African creators, with accessories sourced locally and a strong emphasis on collaboration with emerging designers.
Our space extends beyond fashion, with an in-store art gallery curated by the New Art Collective, showcasing Cape Town artists, and a selection of handcrafted Italian and French sunglasses that reflect our commitment to quality and design. Every element of Boetiek is considered, creating a retail experience that feels both refined and personal.
Our team are more than sales assistants—they are in-house styling consultants, available to guide you in building a wardrobe that works for you. From understanding fit and proportion to working with colour palettes and personal style, they offer a tailored approach to dressing that is both intuitive and informed.
Our full collection is available online, with nationwide delivery across South Africa, or you are welcome to visit us in-store at 79 Kloof Street, Cape Town to experience Boetiek in person.
