""Swedish eyewear designer Anna-Karin Karlsson's name is one to remember, she designs the most exclusive and unique sunglasses available. My No. 1 choice for eyewear couture."
Martina Bonnier, Fashion Director DV Magazine
Anna-Karin Karlsson was thrown into the highest end of eyewear fashion at 19 after finishing her acting/art degree when she landed a job in the oldest and one of the most renowned opticians in London.
Her fascination for sunglasses started as a child when a friend's mother returned from Florida equipped with 80's glamour. But it wasn't until she tried on a pair of Christian Roth sunglasses that this fascination developed into a true passion.
She quickly advanced in the Old Bond street practise and dispensed and designed eyewear for Sultans, Princesses, Kings, Lords, Dukes, Fashionistas - and mere mortals. The men who had their bespoke suits made up on nearby Saville Row would come to the practice to have matching eyewear custom made. The Anna Molinari girls would shop for sunglasses to fit their new outfit. Karlsson was soon working the trade and fashion shows, setting fashions for the fashion forward and learning from the best.
Meanwhile, she grew ever more fascinated with the dark and the grime of the UK underground music scene. Music was a huge part of her life; while signed to independent music labels, Karlsson would write music in the evenings and record whenever she had a free hour.
It was from this swirl of music, art, and acting that Anna-Karin's unique vision and style was born, building on her deep admiration for the traditional skills she saw through her work on bespoke eyewear.
In the Autumn of 2013, Anna-Karin Karlsson won the prestigious, premier award in Swedish fashion; Guldknappen. She was recognised for her acclaimed collection - "Perfecting the Art of Dying Alone".
"With passionate will-power, persistance and a skilled eye for beauty, Anna-Karin Karlsson has made the impossible possible. The world's most savvy celebrities are standing in line to wear her couture creations. The Queen of spectacular spectacles is the given winner of: Damernas Värld Guldknappen Accessory 2013" "

- History
Designpriset Guldknappen instiftades 1981 av tidskriften Damernas Värld med målet att stödja och främja svenskt mode. Pristagaren väljs ut av en jury. Priset delas ut vid ett offentligt arrangemang med modevisning. Pristagaren presenteras med ett reportage i Damernas Värld. 2008-2009 förvärvade Nordiska museet en stor del av de tidigare vinnarkollektionerna och en överenskommelse gjordes med Damernas Värld om att de vinnande plaggen kommande år skänks till Nordiska museet.
