A new, subversive chapter for the Parisian couture house.

Written by: Flora Baibol

In a few recent years Balmain has been making steady, confident steps down the path of artisanal eyewear in collaboration with Akoni.

In the world of eyewear, Japan is the undoubted hallmark of excellence, so this creative tandem between the leader of Japanese eyewear and the historic French Maison came as no surprise for those in the know.

This new, subversive dream that started in the mind of the house’s maestro Olivier Rousteing, then manifested into a tangible dream in some of Japan’s finest workshops and now finally landed at Bottega Di Sguardi.

With only 15 selling points in Italy, the eyewear line is carefully distributed, thus limited in access and quantity. Don’t miss your chance to become the first of not many to sport the prestigious, unique selection!
