The Kenzo Takada Altair is a best seller panto frame made of acetate with titanium temples and hypoallergenic nose-pads. A timeless and elegant design handmade in Japan.
Kenzo Takada collaborated with MASUNAGA, a leading Japanese eyewear manufacture. MASUNAGA designed by Kenzo Takada sunglasses and optical frames combine vintage inspired elements with fashion forward contemporary design. Delicate engraving on the bridge, the bar and the temples are reminiscent of 1920’s jewelry details. The original rim is designed with the star motif from MASUNAGA GMS and Kenzo Takada’s family emblem Campanule flower.
Inspired by a Japanese Kimono, Mr. Kenzo’s early, highly desirable collection included easy to wear smocks, tunics, oriental blouses and wide legged trousers.
Because of his refreshing use of color, pattern and print, he was called “The magician of colors” and made him one of the most important fashion designers who led the Prêt-à-Porter in Paris.

Classic Japanese packaging, all done with care. It made the experience that much more satisfying. Love the glasses and design and production quality by Masunaga. Selection of the best globally eyewear I consider means I will return for more.."
