alain mikli “picasso”

An extraordinary example of sculptural eyewear design, these asymmetrical sunglasses by Alain Mikli challenge traditional notions of balance and symmetry. The contrasting lenses and bold geometric shapes create a striking visual tension, turning the frame into a wearable piece of art.

These asymmetrical sunglasses by Alain Mikli are part of the “Picasso” design concept — a line originally introduced in the early 1980s and later revisited to mark its 30th anniversary.

This piece is not only a continuation of one of Mikli’s most iconic ideas, but also a tribute to a design philosophy that challenges symmetry, perception, and conventional beauty.

A rare and highly collectible piece that perfectly embodies the intersection of fashion, art, and individuality.
