L’Incognito Sunglasses

Year: Spring/Summer 2008

In 2008, Maison Martin Margiela released its first pair of eyewear in the form of the L’Incognito sunglasses. Futuristic in its design influences, these visor-style sunglasses feature a large wrap-around frameless build. The L’Incognitos give the illusion of a censor bar over the eyes, a nod to Margiela’s design philosophy of masking the body to create a simple canvas for his works. Much like the rest of Margiela’s work, these shades exude a cerebral, minimalist quality while retaining an element of wearability. Even if you can’t join Daft Punk or take Cyclops’ place in the X-Men, these The L’Incognitos are still the ultimate sunglasses statement piece.
