VANNI Launches Pixel and Micropixel Collections; Announces Theater-Inspired Campaign

VANNI has introduced the Micropixel collection, a line of eyeglasses crafted from exclusive acetate developed by the brand's style center. The design draws inspiration from digital pixelated graphics, utilizing a dense lattice of squared flecks to create a shimmering, iridescent effect that shifts hue based on light angle. The collection features full, dimensional shapes in unisex and feminine forms, combining block material with transparent acetate accents. Available colors include blue, turquoise, purple, tortoiseshell, and black. Specific color variations within the line comprise silver, teal, purple, bright blue, and red, often paired with tortoiseshell or black temples. The aesthetic relies on pearly microparticles composed at high density to evoke a mother-of-pearl appearance.

VANNI has introduced the Pixel collection, a line of metal eyewear inspired by digital image pixels. The frames feature vibrantly hued metal sheets accented with contrasting colorful details on the lugs and temples, alongside exclusive acetate temple tips from the Wired, Tangram, and Pixel lines. A distinctive square cutout step motif adorns the outer edge of the brow, while slim temples echo this stepped design with small tonal checks. The collection offers shapes ranging from rounded to delicately rectangular, described as feminine and large without being oversized. Color options span brilliant hues like fuchsia, orange, and purple, as well as sober shades such as black, grey, and gold, all enlivened by unexpected details.

Eyewear brand VANNI announced a special project celebrating Italian theater, opera, and prose. The campaign features eyewear from the new collection photographed on miniature theatre sets designed by students from the Accademia Albertina delle Belle Arti in Turin. Human images within the shoot are created using AI, inspired by characters from famous works including Puccini’s opera 'Turandot', Baricco’s monologue 'Novecento', and Calvino’s novel 'Le Città Invisibili'. The initiative acknowledges Professor Massimo Voghera and the participating students for making their set designs available. This announcement details the creative concept and production methods but does not specify product availability dates, pricing, or geographic distribution limits for the featured eyewear.
