In Glowing Colours

MYKITA - In Glowing Colours

New arrivals to the MYKITA collection stand out in vibrant and graphic tones showcasing the brand’s passion for contemporary colour composition.

INSPIRATION

Harmonious yet often unconventional, the refined colour and surface compositions set MYKITA glasses apart. Significant research and development has always gone into advancing the surface treatments and lacquers, which contribute to the characteristic modernity of the frames. This extensive catalogue of design ingredients and colour palettes enables the wide variety of styles and colourways in the collection that allows each person to find their personal favourite.

COLLECTION

New arrivals to the LITE and DECADES collections impress with eye-catching colourways: Poppy Red and Safrane delivers warm vibes all year around via 70's inspired sun frame PALOMA, which has plenty of surface area for the hand-lacquered colourway to play out with contrasting tones for the top and bottom half of the rims. The Jet Black and Greige version is a softer take on Black / White and just as classic.

Lightweight stainless steel frames are fitted with slender acetate rims that also provide a comfortable nose bridge.

Heritage eyewear styles get a high-tech makeover – MYKITA MYLON presents refined, functional pieces for elevated everyday wear.

INSPIRATION

The HYBRID line brings together the two core competences of the Modern Manufactory, precision craftsmanship and advanced technologies, to create progressive eyewear design with a uniquely modern and sophisticated aesthetic. The eyewear construction uses the respective material properties of stainless steel and the laser-sintered MYLON material to optimal effect, producing a perfectly balanced and lightweight frame with outstanding wearing comfort. Precious yet functional, the new crop of mixed material models recalls visual codes of high-end HiFi systems and luxury timepieces.

Including both optical and sunglass frames, the new line of HYBRID models feature MYLON fronts / rims fitted inside a handcrafted stainless steel frame.

MYKITA STUDIO - Retro Cool Renaissance

MYKITA STUDIO 13 Sunglasses

Presenting a product innovation from MYKITA STUDIO – STUDIO 13 reinvents cool 60’s aesthetic using a novel material mix and 3D manufacturing technology.

INSPIRATION

Representing the creative core of the Modern Manufactory, MYKITA STUDIO is a showcase for high-fashion concepts and uncompromising designs that reflect the aesthetic zeitgeist. In an eyewear first, STUDIO 13 presents a novel material concept – MYKITA’s proprietary high-tech MYLON material in combination with traditional acetate. Ultra-light, durable and made using 3D printing technology, MYLON makes up the main ingredient of these high volume sunglasses; acetate is used for the slim rims around the lenses, delivering the defining detail and appeal of this design series.

COLLECTION

The capsule collection presents two sunglass models: Both offer plenty of volume, STUDIO 13.1 is a slimmer silhouette with cool, unisex appeal.

MYKITA | Studio 13.1 Sunglasses in MA3 - Slate Grey/Champagne with Terra Solid Lenses

STUDIO 13.2 a more glamorous, oversize square shape. Central to both eyewear pieces is the interplay of the two materials and their respective colors, which creates the defining and unique look. Solid, matte MYLON paired with glossy, transparent acetate let the lenses appear to hover inside the frame front. Ton-sûr-ton colourways using tortoise shell acetates present a more understated version. Opaque colour-blocking options such as Black / Sand deliver a high contrast graphic effect. For all models, high volume and rounded edges come together for a bold, retro look with undeniable 60’s flair.
