We are hearing and seeing a lot of buzz about 1950′s style coming back in. Last week I took a couple of young ladies out to the theater and they dressed in 1950′s style. That tells me that the trend is not just coming back but is here! It is being shown in all the fashion shows yes, but when you see it on young people in the street that tells you more! It tells you it is not just fashion magazine hype but is real. This is a trend that will do well as it works not just for teens but all ages, and will become mainstream. Not everyone will buy into of course but that doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t embrace it for customers that will and make some 50′s eyewear styles available and display them with confidence. Just don’t put lined bi-focal lenses it them, ha ha!
I just read this piece about Geek is Chic on the Eyecessorize FB page. Katy Perry really has the look, eyewear as well the clothes (skirt a wee bit short for the 50′s!) as seen on the Katie Perry website and Bettie Page pin up look on her current tour.
What a great opportunity this is for eyewear, plenty of companies are already on it. We saw OGI Frames do the Mad Men New Season premier party. This TV show has become very popular and a lot of fans love the look which is very 50′s/early 60′s, see pictures below. I love these eyeglass frames by OGI shown in the pictures by Stacy Schwartz taken at the Mad Men party.
