Karen Walker has partnered with the United Nations' ITC Ethical Fashion Initiative on her new Spring 2014 eye wear collection, called Visible.
Walker is using her collection to highlight and celebrate Kenyan artisans who created a series of screen printed pouches that will accompany any purchase.
The Ethical Fashion Initiative promotes fair and sustainable business rather than a reliance on aid in disadvantaged African and Haitian communities (their motto is "not charity, just work"), bringing together craftspeople and international brands to produce products.
Walker not only used the work of the artisans behind the scenes, but also used them as stars in her new campaign.
The collection, which will include; over-sized black frames with color tinted translucent lenses and gold trims, gold glitter and filigree styles, and reflective gold lenses, and the pouches will be available in store from February 3rd.
