| MYKITA + Fall/Winter 2009 Super hot German eye and sunglass line MYKITA has been busy this fashion week. That's Berlin Fashion Week for all of us in the throws of New York Fashion Week, just to clarify. They've teamed up with two super hot German designers -- Bernard Wilhelm and c.neeon -- to show new styles from their collection. First up, Bernard Wilhelm's Fall/Winter 2009 collection: Skiing is an ancient sport and method of transportation, and it was specifically the slalom wizardry, downhill heroics and fearless jumpers seen at the 1976 Winter Olympics in Innsbruck that provided the inspiration for the collection. To accompany his skimpy ski outfits, Willhelm joined forces with MYKITA to present three mirrored aviator-style metal frames: FRANZ, SEPP and LUKE. Check out the video on their site. Next up: c.neeon whose collection was inspired by Russian artist Sonja Delaunay. The collection draws from the movement's experimental use of strong colours and geometric shapes. In order to complete their playful yet clear and strong looks c.neeon were searching for key accessories. "We found the perfect match in MYKITA's modern, retro- inspired Collection No. 2 glasses", explains designer Clara Leskovar. Check out the video here. Not bad company to be in, if you ask me.
