Akoni X Balmain 

Akoni eyewear's newest and most credible collection features a collaboration with French luxury fashion house Balmain, which exhibits the same luxurious attention to detail held at the heart of both brands. Oliver Rousteing, the creative director of Balmain, and Akoni CEO, Rosario Toscano, certainly did not fail with this collection. With bold gold detailing alongside thick frames, the collection is nothing short of extravagant.
