NEW YORK—One day of greenness just wasn’t enough for ECO by Modo—so, in honor of Earth Day’s 40th anniversary, the eyewear company sponsored a whole “Earth Month” starting with a Green Drinks party April 13. Guests were treated to organic cocktails, networking, music and the opportunity to recycle their old eyewear in exchange for free admission.

ECO strives for sustainability by producing an entire collection made of recycled acetate and stainless steel. All eyeglasses and sunglasses that were collected at the event will be distributed to charities.

Take a look at the eco-paradise venue and some of the green-minded industry professionals who showed up to do their part:

that "green" can be fashionable.

eco-conscious fun.
