Characterized by its \"chunky butterfly\" silhouette, the Mills utilizes complex lamination to encase a soft, rounded inner eye shape within a sharp, architectural outer rim, creating a look that is both avant-garde and wearable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction \u0026amp; Material Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul data-rte-list=\"default\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArduous Lamination Process:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Mills undergoes a proprietary two-month bonding cycle where the inner and outer acetate silhouettes are fused into a single monolithic block.
