Karlie Kloss is best known for her modeling career (OK, and her delicious cookies), but model isn’t the only title the 21-year-old wants to hold.
The Victoria’s Secret Angel has decided to try her hand at designing again through a new partnership with eyewear brand Warby Parker.
According to Vogue, Kloss is to collaborate on a range of sunglasses with Warby Parker (the project is featured in the magazine’s May issue). The forthcoming capsule collection will include three metal frames that each feature ombre lenses and have a 1970s aesthetic.
Additionally, this creative collaboration has a charity element. Proceeds from the sales of the glasses, which cost $145, will benefit Edible Schoolyard NYC, which is a nonprofit that encourages low-income public school children to eat healthier.
“Very excited to be collaborating with Warby Parker on a special collection to benefit Edible Schoolyard NYC featured here in Vogue Magazine this month! More details to come in June, stay tuned….#karliexwarby,” Kloss wrote on her Facebook page.
While Kloss has already been spotted wearing a pair of sunglasses from the upcoming collection, they won’t actually be available for the public to purchase until June 10.
This isn’t the first time Kloss has played the part of designer though. In May 2013, the model collaborated with denim brand Frame on two styles of jeans that were created for long-legged ladies.
“It’s a really exciting collaboration for me, because it came out of necessity,” Kloss told Fashionista at a preview of the line.
“I’ve been insecure my whole life about my height because I couldn’t find clothes to fit my body.”
