Shah Rukh Khan stole the spotlight at the Met Gala 2025, and while his sculptural Gaurav Gupta ensemble turned heads, it was his choice of sunglasses that truly set the tone. Bold and brimming with attitude, the sleek frames brought a modern edge to his otherwise regal look, proving that the right pair of sunglasses can do more than just complete a look; they can define it.
At the heart of this iconic appearance were the Akoni Eris Two sunglasses. These aren’t just any frames—Akoni’s Eris Two channels the “look-at-me” assurance of its mythological namesake. Drawing inspiration from the rebellious spirit of Eris, the goddess who ignited the Trojan War, the design merges a 90s-inspired silhouette with a bold, octagonal lens shape. Crafted from Japanese titanium, the frames offer a striking interplay of matte tones and shimmering precious metals.
Set against his midnight-black sherwani with futuristic metallic detailing and a dramatic cape, the sunglasses added an effortless cool, offering a sharp contrast to the grandeur of his outfit. And then there was the accessory of the hour: a vintage-style walking stick, adorned with subtle crystal work and an ornate handle, adding layers of drama and storytelling. But even with the cape and cane, it was the Akoni Eris Two that pulled the entire look together—mysterious, powerful, and unmistakably SRK.
Because when the King steps out, it’s not just fashion—it’s a moment.
