Vivienne Westwood statement frames adopt tortoise shell and gradient acetate in unexpected colours, and intricate pearl details, synonymous with the house, embellish bold acetate styles. The impact and choice of raw materials to create the collection have been selected with the upmost consideration. The hand-made acetate frames and temple tips in the collection are crafted in an innovative Eastman material ‘Acetate Renew’, made from 60% bio-based content and 40% certified recycled content. The bio-based material is formed of renewable wood pulp cellulose from FSC certified sources. The recycled content is formed of waste plastic diverted from landfill, which would otherwise not be recycled.

The packaging of the collection has also been carefully considered with a recycled by product leather case, organic cotton bag and recycled polyester cloth – all produced with 100% green energy.
