Don’t: Break the glass. Do: Adopt a cool sense of detachment, and don a pair of KAREN WALKER shades from her collection ‘Lost in Paradise,’ a stylish acknowledgement that although we can’t change our environment, we can distance ourselves from it.

FORBIDDEN FRUIT

Framed as a sensual, delicous surrender to desire, KAREN WALKER’S latest collection ‘Eden’ invites us to walk the line between pleasure and pain: the classical beauty of a pearl re-imagined with spiky, silver barbs.
