MYKITA + Maison Margiela Sunglasses: Snake Charming

mykita maison margiela python sunglasses 02True to its name the new MYKITA + Maison Margiela TRANSFER collection is about ‘transferring’ familiar patterns and textures to a new context.

In a triumph of modern handcraft, the python texture – a recurrent Maison Margiela motif – has been etched and meticulously lacquered by hand on to the stainless steel frame, putting an intellectual spin on conventional luxury codes. Flat lenses add to the avant-garde aesthetic of this high-fashion eyewear.
