It's official. They're back.
An icon of the 80s, made famous by The Blues Brothers and Tom Cruise in the film Risky Business, they started appearing on starlets such as Chloe Sevigny, Mary-Kate Olsen and Kirsten Dunst earlier this year. Momentum picked up, people started talking - and now Ray Ban has capitalised on this new-found interest, releasing 'The New Wayfarer' sunglasses last night in New York. With attendees like Mischa Barton and Molly Sims - no doubt taking a few freebies home - it seems certain that we're going to continue seeing this style for some time.
As for the rest of us, they'll hit stores in January 2007.
