Created in partnership with VIU Eyewear, this new range incorporates eco-conscious practices by blending organic and recycled materials. Launching alongside ARMEDANGELS’ Spring/Summer 2024 collection, the eyewear line consists of HAALO, a classic, versatile option with a rounded shape and robust frame, and SPECTRAA, a [cat-eye style with an angular design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vantage-30). The collection's sustainable ethos extends to its construction, with both frames crafted from VIU Eyewear’s [Eastman](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mondottica) Acetate—a cutting-edge compound comprising 96% organic and recycled materials. Each frame will be available in two color variations per style: Khaki and Cherrywood for HAALO and Black and Crystal for SPECTRAA. The new line is available on ARMEDANGELS' website.
