Bayria Eyewear presents AnnAcronista, a limited edition that pays homage to the unforgettable Anna Piaggi, icon of international fashion. This special collection, made up of a butterfly optical frame in black and beige acetate, represents a tribute to the creative genius of Anna Piaggi, capable of mixing styles, eras and emotions.

Bayria Eyewear, the brand born in 2018 as a tribute to the city of Bari, presents AnnAcronista, a limited edition that celebrates the unforgettable Anna Piaggi. This extraordinary collection, produced in only 100 pieces, represents a tribute to the creative genius of one of the most influential and visionary figures on the international fashion scene.

Anna Piaggi was a one-of-a-kind figure. With her signature style, featuring cheeks painted with orange knobs, blue eyeshadow and a blue quiff poking out of her collected headpieces, she charmed the world. Her fashion was a mix of sensations of the moment, a combination of styles, eras and emotions. It was she who introduced the concept of "vintage", creating bold combinations between ethnic tunics, Manolo Blahnik sandals and high fashion pieces, giving new life to each garment and giving them a contemporary aura.

Muse and friend of Karl Lagerfeld, Anna Piaggi left an indelible mark on the fashion system from the 60s to the 2000s. She began her career as a writer for Arianna, the first women's magazine, and then became a pillar of Vogue, with the famous column "DP Doppie Pagine di Anna Piaggi". Through her famous word collages of hers, she has been able to illustrate the connections and inspirations between eras, styles and stylists, opening up new creative horizons.

Karl Lagerfeld defined Anna Piaggi as the one who gave new life to the clothes of the past, wearing them with a current spirit. She was able to revive distant moments, a past that seemed familiar even if it had never lived. Anna anticipated tomorrow's trends through her clothes, inventing fashion with flair and originality.

The limited edition AnnAcronista by Bayria Eyewear is a butterfly optical frame, made of black acetate with an opposing beige plate. Subtle incisions allow the underlying color to emerge just before the lenses and on the sides, where a thick, irregularly shaped and pointed temple creates a contrast with the delicacy of the front. The combination of black and beige recalls the shades of the printed paper on which Anna Piaggi's words unfolded. The butterfly shape, light and floating, invites freedom of expression, without limits or constraints. AnnAcronista is a timeless model, like Anna Piaggi herself, capable of overcoming the styles that have followed one another in the history of fashion, interpreting them and making them her own. Never excessive, always different and elegant.

The AnnAcronista frame is combined with a hat created by Pasquale Bonfilio, an Apulian milliner with a prestigious Milanese atelier. His creations are requested by celebrities such as Paris Hilton, Rossy de Palma, Eva Herzigova, Monica Bellucci, Miss Keta, Achille Lauro and Donatella Rettore. The hat, made in 40 pieces with recycled paper and a metal core, allows the brim to be shaped into different shapes, harmonizing perfectly with the aesthetics and spirit of AnnAcronista.

Bayria Eyewear, in addition to paying homage to Anna Piaggi, stands out for its commitment to sustainability. The frames are produced in Italian laboratories that guarantee ethical work and respect for the territory. Furthermore, the cellulose acetate used is produced with lower quantities of solvents and is highly resistant over time.

Bayria Eyewear's AnnAcronista collection captures the innovative and unique spirit of Anna Piaggi, offering fashion lovers an opportunity to wear a piece of history. With its distinctive aesthetic and impeccable quality, AnnAcronista is a tangible tribute to a fashion icon who has left an indelible mark on the cultural landscape of our time.
