Alain Mikli - Eye Level Opticians, Islington, London

Alain Mikli

Alain Mikli (born Aålain Miklitarian in France on April 1, 1955) is a French-Armenian designer of high-end handmade eyeglasses and accessories.

Mikli’s line features unique colors and shapes, and are a favorite among European celebrities and avant-garde Americans.

Mikli claims his use of color is inspired by his Lebanese Armenian heritage.

In 1978, Mikli opened his design studio in Paris. By 1983, celebrities like Elton John helped bring the line recognition by wearing and touting Mikli products.

Kanye West wore Alain Mikli sunglasses in his music video, Stronger, which he specifically requested from the designer.

This style of sunglasses has become a wide phenomenon, usually being referred to as “shutter shades”.

On January 23, 2013, Alain Mikli International was bought by Italian eyewear giant Luxottica for around 90 million euros.

Eyelevel Opticians, Islington, are an official London stockist of Alain Mikli glasses and eyewear.
