K1 Series by Belcaro is my first exploration into fashion — a personal project designed, modelled, and rendered from scratch. The goal was to create eyewear that felt both wearable and distinctive, grounded in minimalist geometry and urban utility. This was a study in restraint, materials, and the complexity of product design.

Insight

Sunglasses are no longer just functional. They’ve become cultural signals — worn at night, indoors, and as part of a daily identity. People don’t take them off because they’re hiding something, but because they’re showing something. They communicate confidence, not just protection from the sun.

Idea

The design was inspired by a shadow — the one place where sunlight loses its power. K1 embraces contrast and presence: sharp lines, deep blacks, and a form that feels composed in any environment. Built to look right in the morning rush or under club lights, K1 was made for people who never switch gears.
