VANNI debuts limited-edition sunglasses for Expo Dubai and recycled acetate charms

VANNI has introduced a collection of pendants and earrings crafted from discarded acetate material remaining from its eyewear production. This initiative applies circular economy principles to the brand's Made in Italy design process, aiming to minimize environmental impact by repurposing waste from exclusive acetate slabs into sustainable accessories. The pieces are described as contemporary in style while retaining the original material's characteristics. Each accessory is produced as a limited edition item and is uniquely numbered. The source confirms the use of recycled production waste but does not specify pricing, exact launch dates, or broader availability details beyond the description of the items as limited-edition treasures derived from manufacturing remnants.

VANNI, part of the Exclusive Brands Torino network, announced a limited edition sunglasses collection created for Expo Dubai 2020. The release features two designs: a feminine metal frame with mirrored lenses, glitter embellishments, and exclusive acetate tips, alongside a unisex rounded model with tortoiseshell acetate inserts and tips. Both styles include packaging personalized with Expo graphics. These eyewear pieces are part of a curated selection of 13 products from various sectors, including Jewelry, Fashion, Food, Textile, Beauty, and Design, sharing a unified graphic motif inspired by the event. The collection is scheduled for display inside the Bookshop of the Monaco Pavilion at Expo Dubai. Other participating brands include Allemano, Bava, Costadoro, Estetica, Galup, Pepino, Gobino, Lauretana, Opificio, Pininfarina Cambiano, and Quercetti.
