Frame Fashion and Fun for Children

Designs Created by and for Young Style Enthusiasts

7th February 2014 Children are aware of fashion from a very early age – they love clothes and accessories. Here are three designs that fulfill youngsters desire to look fashionable and cool. Ic! berlin went right to the source when they wanted to design eyewear for kids, and asked children to participate. There were a series of fun workshops at ic! berlin HQ in Germany, and with guidance from the design team, the little protégés sketched, built and wore their own eyewear creations. Among the results is this distinctive frame – colours of peace (above). The children understood immediately that their designs needed to be wearable and realistic, and they adjusted their designs as the project proceeded. Eyewear entrepreneurs of the future! www.ic-berlin.de
