VANNI Announces EMBRACE Limited Edition Sunglasses with Artist Elisa Alberti

Eyewear brand VANNI announced the EMBRACE collection, a limited edition of acetate sunglasses created in collaboration with artist Elisa Alberti. The release features two unique models inspired by Alberti’s paintings and sculptural works, reflecting her distinctive style characterized by contrasts between deep black surfaces and delicate tones, as well as rounded shapes juxtaposed with sharp lines. Alberti, who won the VANNI #artistroom prize at Artissima 2023, explores relationships between colour, shape, and texture across transparent and opaque finishes. The design incorporates soft, curved temple shapes that extend to the front frame, translating the materiality and surface interplay of her artistic practice into eyewear form.
