Karen Walker’s Spring Ads Are the Most Charming

For her 2014 spring campaign, sunglass designer Karen Walker created one of the most naturally charming ads of the season (somehow managing to top last season’s). The New Zealander partnered with the United Nations ITC Ethical Fashion Initiative to commission works from local Kenyan artists, which took the form of printed cloth pouches that accompany each pair of sunglasses. To honor the collaboration, Walker also cast the artists in this season’s ads, pairing her quirky, oddball shades with the personal style of the subjects for beautiful results.
