Some may wonder how the really cool store Operations in Soho managed to open, because it’s owned by 3 born-in-the-’80s kids who have great retail instincts, but no experience to back it up, and certainly no legitimate backers.
Some may also be unaware that one of Operations’ owners is the son of the guy who runs Safilo, the immense and actually very cool company that lisence’s eyewear for Burberry, Prada, D&G, you know… all those designers who now have their own collectible Barbie.
The thing is, the store is lovely and the boys who run it are hot. And apparently, well-inheriting. So scoot on down to Mercer.
