The Esther Named for Esther Gordy Edwards, much-loved sister of Mr. Gordy, The Esther is our tribute to the wonderful Women of Motown who’ve constantly redefined soulful chic throughout the label’s unique history.

Choose from all black with tortoiseshell detailing or black with vintage Italian-styled tortoiseshell temples. Wear The Esther when you’re cruising with the radio on (tuned to Motown for sure), chilling wherever life takes you or share a touch of red carpet class with everyone you meet. • Polarized UV 400 lenses • Made from the 1984 pressing of Sammy Davis Jr’s “Hello Detroit” • Open bridge for outstanding comfort and style • Inlaid Gold Motown Museum logo on thermo formed temples • Base material of hypoallergenic Italian acetate
