Story & heritage

Alain Mikli opened his design studio in Paris in 1978 and built a reputation for high-end handmade eyewear with distinctive colors and graphic shapes. The brand’s own retail footprint is currently boutique-led, while authorized eyewear retailers carry the current optical and sunglass models.

A05070 Sunglasses sits inside that eyewear-only language: a cat-eye sunglass chosen here because current authorized product pages identify the model, colorways, sizing, and USD retail offer rather than relying on memory or resale listings.

Materials & craft

The sourced product information describes A05070 Sunglasses through its frame form, colorways, and fit measurements. For the Specs Collective models, the retailer identifies Italian handcraft and acetate construction; for Sunglass Hut models, the product page supplies the current lens/frame color and fit details.

How to choose & style

Choose these frames as face-shaping objects, not quiet neutrals. The squared and rectangular Mikli pieces sharpen soft tailoring; the cat-eye and pillow sun shapes add lift to simple knits, black shirting, and minimal outerwear.

If you want the safest entry point, pick dark nacrée, tortoise, or Havana-adjacent colors. If the frame is the outfit’s punctuation mark, the red, blue, opal, and layered acetate versions are the ones that make Mikli feel unmistakable.
