Bayria Eyewear pays homage to the creative genius of Anna Piaggi, the "crazy variable" as Franca Sozzani nicknamed her, with AnnAcronista, a limited edition produced in only 100 pieces, paired with a hat created by Pasquale Bonfilio, a milliner from Puglia with an established atelier in Milan, whose creations are in demand by Paris Hilton, Rossy de Palma, Eva Herzigova, Monica Bellucci, Miss Keta, Achille Lauro, and Donatella Rettore.
AnnAcronista is a butterfly optical frame, in black acetate set against a beige sheet. Imperceptible hollows allow the underlying color to come through in the thickness immediately before the lens and in the side, where a thick, irregularly shaped, pointed rod contrasts the delicacy of the front. The juxtaposition of black and beige refers to the colors of the printed paper on which his words flowed, while the graceful, floating butterfly shape is an invitation to freedom of expression, without limits or constraints.
The Bonfilio hat matched
with this whimsical frame is also in beige and black,
made of 40 pieces of recycled paper, with a metal core, which allows the brim to be shaped and take on different fashions from time to time.
