KAREN WALKER EYEWEAR – HELTER SKELTER /VINTAGE CLEAR Blog Detail

The Helter Skelter is a signature Karen Walker shape that continues to be a timeless wardrobe staple. Crafted in a transparent vintage clear bio-acetate, the translucent frame is fitted with dark brown mono lenses for an effortlessly cool look. The style is accentuated with polished gold nose bridge, slender metal arms and our iconic arrowhead pins at the temple.

This silhouette is crafted in premium bio-acetate, a more natural version of acetate made with wood pulp that’s cultivated and harvested according to the guidelines of the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) and a unique vegetable-derived solution that replaces traditional chemical plasticiser. With approximately 68% of its raw materials obtained from natural and renewable sources, these frames are both bio-based and biodegradable.
