Original and Daring Eyewear Designer Feted
25th August 2013 Designer Anna-Karin Karlsson was bestowed the prestigious Swedish Fashion Accessory Award last evening for her amazing eyewear creations. The Award is a coveted prize in Scandinavia, and entrants must prove not only their fashion-worthiness, but also their business acumen. Speaking from Stockholm where the designer is based and where she received the award, Karlsson said: “I cried with happiness when I found out. This is the most important thing that could ever happen to me.”
Dramatic and luxurious, AKK eyewear is a total expression of Anna-Karin’s quest for beauty, love and romance. She says: “I like designs that are graphic and strong; I want to tell a story, and make eyewear with feeling.” AKK’s first optical collection will be launched at the end of September at the Paris Fashion Events, and she will also unveil her new sunglass designs.
