Melting in the Sun

Everyone that has ever worn too much black eyeliner and white face makeup (admit it, we’ve all done it at some point or another) can directly relate to these glasses.  The feeling of bursting into flames while walking down the street on a hot, ultra sunny day – it has been personified in plastic for us now.  

Klavers van Engelen premiered these melting sunglasses for their Fall / Winter 2008 Milan runway show.  I can’t really say that I approve of the majority of the collection, as it contains far too much bright orange for me, but these definitely stand out.
