Designer Bio
A-Morir, the luxury artisanal eyewear line created by designer Kerin Rose Weinberg, has become a much publicized favorite among fashion’s biggest trendsetters. Drawing inspiration from her time spent studying classical music as a child combined with her lifelong love of rock and roll she sets herself apart with her rebellious designs executed with an impeccably refined craftsmanship. A-Morir has been repeatedly commissioned and loved most notably by pop’s heavy hitters Rihanna, Lady GaGa, Beyonce', Katy Perry, Grace Jones, Debbie Harry, 2NE1, and Estelle, and has already caught on with underground up and comers Lana Del Rey, Iggy Azalea, Solange, and Kreayshawn. Kerin has also been commissioned to create concert and video looks for the Black Eyed Peas, Rihanna, Katy Perry and Lady Gaga, for whom she created her now iconic insect and pearl covered teacup. A-Morir has gone from being loved by the biggest names in pop to the biggest names in fashion. A-Morir's Spring/Summer 12 collection was recognized as a 'New Talent' by Vogue Italia and honored in their SS2012 showcase. Nina Garcia and Anna Dello Russo have both been spotted in A-Morir, pieces have been worn by fashion superstars Karlie Kloss, Carmen Kass, Crystal Renn, and Andre Pejic and have photographed in countless Vogue editorials. Under the direction of Nicola Formichetti Kerin created masks for a cover of Vogue Homme Japan, shot by Steven Klein, and created custom accessories for the Mugler Mens SS12 video and runway show. .The SS13 collection introduces an exciting range of new materials, including: miniature fedoras, Hamsas, custom-made French veil and Swarovski Elements crystal mesh. These features are integrated seamlessly with signature A-Morir mainstays like Swarovski Elements crystals and cup chains. As always, the pieces in this new collection are meticulously hand embellished with premium materials. Veils are juxtaposed with rainbow-mirrored sports lenses, while metallic aluminum chains sit comfortably alongside pastel Swarovski mesh.
