About the activation

Two exclusive Toronto trunk shows bring Berlin-inspired artistry, Art Déco glamour and handcrafted luxury eyewear to First Canadian Place and Yorkville on October 22 and 24, 2026.

Toronto's fashion and design scene is welcoming a distinctive European collection this October as Berlin-based artist and designer Sarah Settgast makes her Canadian debut with HOFFMANN Natural Eyewear at KARIR Eyewear.

For two days only, visitors can discover a collection that brings together artistic expression, vintage glamour and intricate craftsmanship. The Canadian launch will be presented through two separate trunk shows: one in Toronto's Financial District and another in the heart of Yorkville.

Inspired by the elegance of the Roaring Twenties, the decorative beauty of Art Nouveau and the bold geometric influences of Art Déco, the Sarah Settgast by HOFFMANN collection offers a creative interpretation of luxury eyewear.

Where Fashion, Art and Craftsmanship Meet

Sarah Settgast isn't just an eyewear designer. The Berlin-based creative is also a painter and author, bringing an artistic perspective to her collaboration with HOFFMANN Natural Eyewear.

Her designs draw inspiration from the expressive fashion of the 1920s, when elaborate accessories, decorative details and distinctive silhouettes helped define an era of individuality and glamour.

According to KARIR's supplied event information, the collection features handcrafted frames incorporating natural buffalo horn, precious metals and mother-of-pearl inlays.

Each piece is produced through a process involving more than 300 individual steps, highlighting the attention to detail behind the collection.

The result is eyewear that goes beyond its everyday function, blending wearable design with the visual language of art, fashion and craftsmanship.

Two Exclusive Toronto Trunk Shows

The collection's Canadian debut will take place at two KARIR Eyewear boutiques, giving visitors a choice of locations.

Thursday, October 22, 2026 — First Canadian Place

  • Time: 11 a.m.–4 p.m.
  • Location: KARIR Eyewear, First Canadian Place
  • Address: 100 King Street West, Toronto
  • Entrance: Main level, Adelaide Street entrance

Located in the heart of Toronto's Financial District, the First Canadian Place presentation offers downtown visitors an opportunity to discover the collection.

Saturday, October 24, 2026 — Yorkville

  • Time: 11 a.m.–4 p.m.
  • Location: KARIR Eyewear, Yorkville
  • Address: 138 Cumberland Street, Toronto

The second presentation brings the collection to Yorkville, a neighbourhood known for its designer boutiques, galleries and luxury shopping.

Both trunk shows feature the Canadian launch of Sarah Settgast by HOFFMANN Natural Eyewear, but they take place on separate dates at different KARIR locations.

What Makes This Collection Different?

The collection brings together several distinctive design elements:

  • 1920s-inspired glamour: Designs influenced by flapper-era fashion and vintage decorative styles.
  • Art Nouveau and Art Déco influences: Artistic references that give the collection its distinctive aesthetic.
  • Natural materials: Handcrafted frames featuring buffalo horn, as described by the organizer.
  • Intricate embellishments: Precious metals and mother-of-pearl inlays add decorative detail.
  • Detailed craftsmanship: A production process involving more than 300 individual steps, according to KARIR's supplied brief.
  • An artistic perspective: A collaboration shaped by the creative vision of Berlin-based artist Sarah Settgast.

For visitors interested in fashion, accessories, European design or distinctive eyewear, the trunk shows offer an opportunity to explore a collection making its first appearance in Canada.

Who Should Check It Out?

This launch may be particularly interesting for fashion enthusiasts, design lovers, collectors of distinctive accessories and anyone curious about the craftsmanship behind luxury eyewear.

It's also an opportunity to discover a designer collection in a boutique setting rather than through a conventional retail display.

Whether you're exploring downtown Toronto during the week or planning a Saturday in Yorkville, the two presentations offer different opportunities to experience the Canadian debut.

Before You Go

Both public trunk shows run from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on their respective dates.

The organizer has confirmed the dates, times and boutique locations. Public admission conditions, appointment requirements, product prices and specific designer appearance times have not been confirmed.
