BRANDS

MATSUDA

“Luxury through material, quality through craft, innovative by design.”

Mitsuhiro Matsuda’s legendary eyewear brand elevates opticals to art pieces. The brand merges architectural aesthetics with craftsmanship, using fine Japanese acetate, sterling silver, and 18k gold. With intricate details including hand-engraved filigrees and adjustable nose pads, Matsuda’s sunglasses can take over 250 steps to finish.

Matsuda achieved cult status in the 1980’s and 1990’s, appearing in high fashion editorials and Hollywood films like Terminator 2. The brand’s A/W 1996 collaboration with photographer Nan Goldin spawned a coffee table book, entitled Nan Goldin meets Yukio Kobayashi: Naked New York, which won an award from the Art Directors Club of New York. Matsuda articulates its strong ties to art and culture with heritage collections, as well as with new styles.
