AN ICON IN MOTION

To celebrate the 40th anniversary of the In Motion Business Unit, Poltrona Frau presents Vanity Fair XC In Motion: a limited edition of just forty pieces that reinterprets one of the brand's most recognizable icons through the language of Italian Futurism.

VANITY FAIR XC IN MOTION Limited Edition

The iconic Vanity Fair XC showcases Absolute Dynamism of the Left Hand by Ivo Pannaggi (1901–1981), a leading figure of the second wave of Italian Futurism.

 

Digitally printed on Pelle Frau® ColorSphere Impact Less leather, the artwork interacts with the chair's forms, transforming it into a collectible piece that celebrates forty years of innovation, research, and the culture of movement.

FORTY YEARS OF EXCELLENCE

From its first collaborations in the 1920s and 1930s, crafting bespoke interiors for Vincenzo Lancia automobiles, to the establishment of the In Motion Business Unit in 1986 with the Lancia Thema 8.32 project featuring a Ferrari engine, Poltrona Frau In Motion has brought Italian craftsmanship to the automotive, aviation, and marine industries, developing unique expertise in designing high-performance interiors.

 

Vanity Fair XC In Motion celebrates this journey: forty years of research, innovation, and craftsmanship, where beauty and performance continue to evolve together.

DYNAMISM TAKES SHAPE

The artwork does not depict a means of transportation, but movement in its purest form: a powerful, distilled gesture constructed through force lines that express energy and creative tension.

 

The hand thus becomes the symbol of In Motion's identity and of the culture of craftsmanship that has defined Poltrona Frau for more than a century, in harmony with its historic principle: Intelligence in Our Hands. In Pannaggi's work, the hand represents creative energy and the act of design; for Poltrona Frau, it has always symbolized the culture of craftsmanship and artisanal precision. It is through this dialogue that Vanity Fair XC In Motion takes shape.

A Limited Edition of 40 Pieces

Vanity Fair XC In Motion Limited Edition is created for collectors, design enthusiasts, and art lovers. Each of the 40 pieces is distinguished by a plaque bearing the product name and its individual limited-edition number, and is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
