08Fashion is an ever changing and at some times strange thing. What people wear, how they live and how they act is being constantly changed by what ever is going on in the media. Whether it’s what a celebrity was seen doing in the media or whether it’s a new film release, no matter what it is, it always has an effect on the public.
The recently released Harry Potter film, Harry Potter and The Half Blood Price, is the latest thing to effect people, not just children though, people of all ages. They film has already broken a number of box office records, and just like the previous films in the series, it’s having an affect on fans that want to be like the wizard. This has lead to companies seeing a rise in Potter style clothing, in particular, glasses. Many companies, Glasses Direct being one, are benefiting from the current fashion trends. They have reported seeing a 100% rise in sales of the Harry Potter designer glasses that they sell.
Many people are finding that when they go to choose a new pair of glasses, they see the Harry Potter style frames and find that they match their personal interests aswell as their desired price. The Potter style glasses tend to be very cheap glasses because the style and design of the glasses is quite basic, this is the big reason why many people are buying them.
This was said by the founder of Glasses Direct, Jamie Murray Wells: “We always see a surge in styles to match current trends.
The new Harry Potter style is leading trends further away from think rimmed glasses. With popularity of the glasses on the rise and the cost of them so low, we could all be looking like Harry Potter in the future. Unfortunately glasses retailers haven’t yet released the Harry Potter style glasses as prescription sunglasses, we’ll all just have to squint while looking like wizards.
