Karen Walker “Metals” is a bold expression of negative space.
We introduced the range with Karen Walker’s first optical collection. Now we present the Metals sunglasses.

“We altered our focus this season with new styles that expose their intrinsic architecture and create a sense of illusion, almost as if the frames float on the face,” says Karen Walker.

The collection introduces a new aviator shape, the JACQUES, as well as metal reworks of classic Karen Walker shapes.  The all metal frames feature sleek cutouts on the front, lending a light and airy feel; jewellery for the eyes.

The stellar color palette includes metallic blue with blue mirror lenses, gold with classic G15 lenses , and silver with metallic silver mirror lenses. Worth noting the entire collection uses air-cushioned nose pads for a finely tuned comfortable fit and Zeiss lenses for superb optics.

Karen Walker debuts her first ever line of eyeglasses!

The “Metals” optical collection, featuring frames composed entirely from metal, is an exploration of negative space. In true Karen Walker fashion they are bold, chic, and unlike any eyeglasses we have ever seen.

“The lightness of the way the Metals frames float on the face worked perfectly for extension into clear lenses,” Karen says. “There’s an inherent delicacy to the collection that transcends conventional spectacles to become jewellery for the eyes.”

Each metal shape – aviator teardrop ‘Jacques’, ‘Simone’ from ’Super Duper Strength’, ‘Marguerite’ from ‘Number One’ is available for us to customize and fit with you Rx lenses. The color palette includes: silver, metallic blue, and gold. Check it out below…
