With past designs that included Geordi La Forge-esque wrap-arounds, the unveiling of the Spring/Summer 2010 Maison Martin Margiela sunglasses was heavily anticipated. This season Margiela opted for a more classic than funky approach.
Resembling a pair of classic pilot glasses, the new model is called The Incognito Assemblé and it comes in black and tortoiseshell. The Spring 2010 Maison Martin Margiela sunglasses have plastic and metal frames with the plastic extending only halfway around the lenses.
