TThis time last year , the eyewear industry was in shambles .
The COVID-19 pandemic had just begun and there were so many unknowns forcing many of the top brands to take a pause .
Fast forward to now and we ’ ve ( for the most part ) adapted to our new reality . We ’ ve emerged from our homes with a renewed sense of optimism , ready to embrace the warmth of spring .
It ’ s the time of year that usually inspires us to freshen up our wardrobe or pick up a new pair of frames .
According to industry insiders , including Centennial Optical ’ s Linda Mulford-Hum , the ongoing pandemic will continue to influence design choices .
“ Feel-good nostalgia shapes and neutral hues will lend a sense of grounding during these turbulent times ,” she predicts .
