De Rigo: Sustainable style

British luxury fashion label Mulberry has released its spring/summer 2021 eyewear collection focused on sustainable design and materials.

Mulberry is a signatory of the UN Fashion Industry Charter for Climate Action and has chosen to take holistic action against climate change by aiming to achieve a net-zero emission goal by 2025.

Its new eyewear collection includes three sustainable frames, one sunglass style and two prescription frames. The frames are constructed from biodegradable acetate and the sunglasses feature nylon lenses created from castor oil.

VML123

VML122 is a prescription semi-cat’s eye frame with a metal core and acetate finishing. Inbuilt nose-pads and paddle-shaped temples complete the refined, simplistic silhouette.
