Mugler and Gentle Monster Form the Spiral 01 and 02
References: highsnobiety
Mugler works in collaboration with Gentle Monster to create captivating eyewear in the form of Spiral 01 and Spiral 02. Both of these are defined by its bug-eyes silhouette which makes a bold fashion statement to any outfit. It nods to the Mugler 1997 series dubbed Les Insectes which was its haute couture line as influence is drawn from the look of the insect's pincers, wings, and hard-shell bodies.
The glasses from the capsule then went on to become pieces on display at museums such as Paris' Palais Galliera and New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art. This serves as the inspiration for the new collaboration. Each model is offered in three colors which offers six pieces in total.
