We ship worldwide, fast and secure. Orders leave within 24 hours in a hard case inside a shock-resistant box with full tracking, insurance, and signature confirmation. We keep a packing photo and a condition log for your record.
Returns are simple. Send the frame back in original condition with all accessories and our tamper seal intact for a quick approval. If something is off, we document it with photos and offer a fair path forward. No scripts. Real support from our product team.
Rinse lenses with lukewarm water and a drop of pH-neutral soap, then dry with a clean microfiber. Avoid paper towels, alcohol, acetone, and heat sources. Store in the hard case when not in use, never face-down on the lens.
Hinges like consistency. Open and close with both hands and avoid lateral twist. If you feel a loosened screw over time, contact us for a torque-safe adjustment note or visit a trusted optician.
The frame sits 2–4 mm below most brow lines, which keeps the look intentional and clean. The bridge is carved and smooth, so it settles without pinching on average to low-medium nose bridges. Temple pressure stays even past the 30-minute mark due to balanced hinge tension.
If your lashes brush standard ovals, MM211's lens height keeps clearance while still reading slim. Hair up or braided makes the gradient read darker. Hair down or voluminous calls for the darker upper lens to anchor the top half.

Gentle Monster MM211 RC7 — Maison Margiela collaboration, verified and documented
This is the MM211 in the RC7 color code from the Maison Margiela x Gentle Monster line, authenticated by our gentlemonsterbratz.com editorial staff. It lands at $520 and sits in our curated gentle monster bratz collection for its sleek oval silhouette and high-gloss, Y2K energy.
Expect a translucent red crystal frame, smoke-to-dark gradient lenses, and clean co-branding that reads premium up close. We inspected, measured, and photographed this exact unit before listing.
Who is MM211 RC7 for?
If you want an oval that cuts sharp, lifts the face, and adds gloss without going full shield, this is your pair. It fits small-to-medium faces best and scales up on wider faces with a refined, sculpted look.
The RC7 lens gradient softens indoor, deepens outdoors, and gives that paparazzi-proof vibe when the light hits right. The translucent red acetate brings heat without shouting. It plays with black, white, chrome, and leather the way you want a Margiela code to play.
Price and availability: $520 — why RC7 sits higher
Our price is $520, consistent with the MM211 RC7 on our main grid today. RC7 is a scarcer color code than 01 or 01 GR, and gradient lenses in this tint pattern move fast in verified condition.
We price from documented scarcity and current market movement. If supply returns, the curve softens. If not, it holds. No hidden fees. Taxes and duties show at checkout with courier options.
Visual and build notes from our intake check
We see a glossy, translucent red crystal acetate with a clean polish. The lens line is an assertive oval with a slight lift at the outer corners, which sharpens cheekbones on camera. Hinge tension is even left to right, temples close symmetrically, and the frame sits level on a flat surface.
Co-branding is precise, with crisp temple engraving. You get a Margiela stitch detail story at the temples and the expected numeric reference inside the arm. The lenses are uniform with no wave or haze under bright light. Our UV tester shows UV400 coverage across the lens area.

Lens and protection
The gradient lens blocks glare at eye line and lightens toward the cheek to keep expressions visible. Our meter shows full UV400 coverage. The lens edge is clean with no ripple at tilt, which helps with camera flash bounce and street light halo.
You get clarity without weird color cast. Outdoors, the upper field reads dark charcoal; indoors, it drops a shade and holds detail. No distortion at the periphery during our wear test.
Styling notes from our gentlemonsterbratz.com team
Build the outfit around the frame. Keep the top half clean so the lens line rules. Try a cropped jacket or a fitted tee, micro hoops, and a low-rise trouser. The translucent red adds heat to monochrome looks and bonds with chrome jewelry fast.
Glossy lip, low contour, hair slicked or braided makes the upper gradient feel cinematic. If your hair is big, let the darker upper lens do the anchoring. If you shoot content, face the light to make the red crystal glow at the edges.
Authentication summary
Every unit passes our seven-point check: finish and polish under bright light, hinge tension and symmetry, lens clarity and uniform tint, logo and engraving sharpness, temple alignment, packaging integrity, and a final wear test for fit. We document macro shots, front and 45°, and a level test on a flat plane.
MM211 RC7 cleared every step. We keep its photo record and UV test reading on file, and we add a tamper seal to the case at packing.
