Since France re-opened their borders to British tourists, there’s been a sudden surge in ski holiday bookings. Many holidaymakers have been making a mad dash for the slopes to enjoy the winter activities on offer at the country’s popular ski resorts. British tourists make up a large chunk of French ski resort visitors. But due to Covid and travel restrictions, people haven’t been able to ski or snowboard for quite some time.
As we mentioned in our previous blog, eyewear trade fairs are beginning to re-emerge. Whether it’s the long-standing large trade shows or smaller innovative pop-up events dotted around Europe, they’ve all been showcasing the latest trends and fashion for eyewear moving into 2022.
The big eyewear trend for 2022 is the introduction of translucent colours – and there are a lot of them. The spectrum starts with crystal and moves around the colour wheel to a deep midnight blue capturing everything else in between. The most eye-catching colour we’ve seen so far is a soft translucent olive green. Overall, green seems to be the stand out crowd pleaser this year.
The short spell of sunshine we recently experienced has come to an end and summer has very quickly moved into autumn. The days are getting shorter, colder and unfortunately wetter. But on a positive note, with the night’s drawing in we can start to settle into cosy evenings watching some of our favourite shows which have just returned to our TV screens.
At Respectacle Company, we take the time to get to know our customers. We’ve always got time for a chat and a catch-up. During a recent conversation with a couple of our male clients, it came to our attention that our eyewear collections are focused heavily on our female client base. So clearly, we needed to reassess the diversity of our eyewear collections and make some changes to address the needs of our male clientele.
