IN STYLE
2015
FOR
A new year, for many, signifies a fresh start and an opportunity to reinvent
oneself, including style. Whether to help you see better or to protect
your eyes from the sun, there is no doubt that frames, although small in size,
can make a major impact as a bold or dramatic fashion statement or
a cheeky-chic wardrobe staple.
The trends we see on the runways of New York, Paris and Milan make their
way into frame design. As we all know, styles come and go, but lately, as with
most fashion including, “eyewear trends tend to evolve rather than change,
most trends from the last couple of seasons are still in fashion, they have just
been updated,” said Jill Bartlett director of client services at PRECISION.
Overall, “frames will get thinner again with fluid, less angular lines,” said
Miet Vaes PR-agent at theo eyewear. And have more intricate details.
This will apply to both metal and acetate frames.
Wooden frames will be around for a while because of its sustainable
appearance. “I see a lot of wooden frames, nowadays, since the industry
notices the DIY-look works,” said Vaes. However, as seen in the Marc Stone
collection, wood finish is being done on acetate frames to achieve
the same type of look.
