The House of KARL LAGERFELD is pleased to introduce a new, limited-run sunglass style as part of The Ultimate Icon collection. Fusing heritage inspirations with a contemporary aesthetic, the square-shaped silhouette is equal parts polished, bold, and feminine.
The sun style is crafted with an acetate frame-front with oblique milling, for a delicate yet durable result. As added embellishment, the temples feature a glossy metal fan logo. The statement motif is inspired by the vintage fan accessory that Karl Lagerfeld was known to carry with him at all times in the ‘80s and ‘90s; it now appears throughout KARL LAGERFELD collections as a subtle nod to history while conveying a forward-looking spirit.
The sun style is available in four premium acetate colors: black and white, dark tortoise, petrol and lilac, and cyclamen and rose.
The Ultimate Icon campaign and collection celebrate a true multi-hyphenate — a Renaissance man whose passion for photography, literature, architecture and interior design resulted in unprecedented artistic creation. The Ultimate Icon honors Karl Lagerfeld’s enduring impact and legacy, guided by his own mantra: "embrace the present and invent the future."
The special-edition sunglass style is now available online, while quantities last, at www.karl.com.
