Designer Karen Walker Transforms Herself in Her New Ad Campaign

Karen Walker takes eyewear to the next level with her newest collection, titled Transformers. Transformers also alludes to the many identities a person can assume on, say, different social media platforms, whether it’s Instagram, Facebook, or Snapchat. Hollywood is also a touchstone for Walker, who stated, “It’s a city that is built on re-inventing oneself.” Walker’s portraits are also a nod to Robert Mapplethorpe for his hyperrealist photography.
