Lysandra Perez-Brown CEO of Khandie Woo LLC

Khandie Woo LLC is a wearable art brand specializing in eccentric eyewear and vibrant accessories. With roots in Brooklyn, New York, many imagine that our one-of-a-kind pieces were created in a high-end gallery or art studio. While we’re proud to say that our pieces were displayed in galleries and on runways across the globe, we’re equally as proud to say that our origin is nowhere near as glamorous.<br />Khandie Woo LLC is the product of nearly ten years of passion, hard work, and unwavering determination, even in the face of unimaginable stress. Our first pair of lensless glasses — the art piece that put us on the map — wasn’t created in a studio. Instead, they started as bifocals bought for a few bucks from the local thrift store... and then they broke not too long after that. So, our founder Lysandra did what she does best. She made it work! Harnessing her creative prowess with recycled mediums and fabrics sourced from the Caribbean, Lysandra used material she had on hand to wrap the glasses in a way she had never seen done before. Then,<br />she unveiled them to the world with a matching headwrap and handmade accessories. From there, the rest is history. As interest grew for her handcrafted pieces, Lysandra’s wearable art caught the attention of a designer in the Netherlands. Soon, both Lysandra and Khandie Woo LLC were on the runway across Europe, as well as in New York and Los Angeles. More recently, Lysandra spearheaded her time at ART AT FAME: The Khandie Woo Pop-Up Experience, and had our products highlighted in a FOX5 Good Day New York profile as well as in a Hot Spring Accessories feature on the Wendy Williams Show and a Reebok Campaign. Today, Khandie Woo LLC is evolving from made-to-order products to steadily manufactured goods that will be more widely accessible on a global scale. And despite our broader reach, our message will always be the same: To remain unapologetically you, confident in your Khandie Woo frames.<br /> <br />About Our Founder & CEO, Lysandra<br /><br />Lysandra Perez-Brown is th
