The [Monster](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/monster-arc-smart-sound-reactive-led-lamp) Butterfly by Vivienne Tam headphones are beautifully adorned with a butterfly motif -- an image that means a lot to fashion designer Vivienne Tam. Consumer electronics company Monster certainly brought [high-tech features](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/disruptive-headphone) to this collaboration.

The headphones are equipped with ControlTalk, all-metal housing, high performance eartips with various shapes and sizes for the perfect fit, and a cable slider and clip so that the earpieces stay where they should -- in your ears.

**Implications** - These headphones marry [fashion and music](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bose-x-kendra-scott), promising to embark listeners on a different journey and life experience. Tam's gorgeous designs are fueled by the movement and rhythm of the music.
