Matsuda

Innovation and experimentation have been a part of Matsuda’s DNA since Mitsuhiro Matsuda founded his fashion house in Tokyo over 50 years ago. Recognized as being one of the first designers to meld architecture with fashion, it was his ready-to-wear and eyewear creations that truly captured the attention of the world in the 1980s. His campaigns were celebrated collaborations with renowned artists, such as Nan Goldin, Jan Saudek, Juergen Teller and Bruce Weber, cementing Matsuda’s reputation as an innovator and creator of art-as-fashion. Hand-engraved filigree and hand-lacquered detailing impart artistic allure on round and oval celluloid acetate framework, while aviators, vintage-brow-line styles, and hexagonal shapes are rendered in sterling silver, feather-light titanium, and gold-plated metals. Multi-layered polarized and UV-protective lenses range from silver and gold mirrored finishes to a spectrum gradient and solid standards for all tastes.
