I was leafing through Parade magazine on Sunday and was reading about the Oscars. There was a picture of Sophia Loren from the premier of her movie “Nine” next to Sandra Bullock. I was totally struck by Sophia Loren’s enduring beauty and so happy to see her photographed in a wildly glamorous premier outfit wearing her eyeglasses! So good for the optical industry. Here she is in her Zyloware (style is SLM 169) with a trendy color tint on the lenses.
There needs to be more frames like this. Many mature ladies have told me that they have trouble finding larger eyeglass frames that are not “old lady” frames. We know that Sophia Loren would never wear an “Old lady” frame!

Not “OLD LADY GLASSES”! You’ve gotta be kidding. The glasses Ms Loren is wearing could be straight out of the late 70′s to early 80′s, complete with the Brown to Rose tint. I’m an old man who customarily wears glasses from a company that went out of business in the 50′s, but not old enough to feel comfortable escorting a woman so historically attired in eyewear.
And Zyloware wants to know why so few people want to purchase their product.
But big and retro are in now- Plus a woman like Sophia Loren can wear anything and look good. She is someone I admire.
