Preppy speaks to a long list of
distinctiveness, from a point of view of eyewear that
defines a generation. This “preppy” fashion has
been redesigned as each new generation emerges. It is
an intermingling of nostalgia and traditional with a
contemporary interpretation. It’s sassy yet
straightforward. It was originally the P-3 shape that
has been a mainstay in eyewear, but now “preppy”
could mean chic and fashionable.
