GOGOSHA OPTIQUE: Face of the Day: Rolfe Kent …’Scores’ again.

Composer Rolfe Kent honored with BMI career award. (Variety)

Rolfe’s scores include “Sideways,” “Up in the Air,” “Dexter” and Julia’s personal favorites… “Legally Blonde and “Election”… to name but a few.

Our good friend, Rolfe Kent, received BMI’s Richard Kirk Award for career achievement Wednesday night at the Regent Beverly Wilshire Hotel.

Kent joins John Williams, Jerry Goldsmith and John Barry, past recipients of the performing-rights society’s top honor… Erm, WOW!

Rolfe can be seen here looking ‘jolly handsome’ in his Barton Perreira: Gilbert in Umber Tortoise; whilst collecting his award in his own inimitably style… Successful, creative and armed with a rapier wit, amazingly Rolfe is still looking for his leading lady to star in the RomCom of life… inquire within.

GOGOSHA OPTIQUE: WHAT WE ARE ALL ABOUT: When we say handmade, we mean HANDMADE. Oliver Goldsmith: Bespoke

GOGOSHA OPTIQUE: WHAT WE ARE ALL ABOUT: When we say handmade, we mean HANDMADE. Oliver Goldsmith: Bespoke

Since first meeting Claire Goldsmith - the great grand daughter of Oliver Goldsmith - in Paris c2007, we have been huge fans of both Claire herself, and the iconic eyewear collections she helped resurrect from the dusty showcases of history. Even before Julia opened Gogosha Optique, she knew that OG was going to be one of her ‘must have’ collections.

As a continuing homage to their iconic past, and propelling Oliver Goldsmith into the 21st Century, the inspirational Claire started a ‘Bespoke’ eyewear service, and Gogosha Optique are both honored and thrilled to be one of 10 locations in the world to offer it… because we know you deserve it!

This is a short film about how a bespoke frame by Oliver Goldsmith Sunglasses is made. Using one of the last remaining factories in England - this is what HANDmade is about…. THIS is what Gogosha is all about.
