Gok Wan made it cool to wear prescription glasses, and now the world of social media allows everyone to really appreciate the 'geeky glasses' look.
Social networking has become an essential part of everyday life. We network on our laptops, at work, on our phones (if you’re hip enough to have a smart-phone), and quite frankly, without our daily dose of Facebook, Twitter or Bebo, we just don’t quite feel ourselves. It’s no wonder that you can find pretty much anything on these sites, including the I Love Geeky Glasses fan page, created for people who wear prescription glasses. This Facebook fan page has almost a thousand dedicated fans who either wear prescription glasses, or have spectacle envy and would love a pair of their own.
Gok Wan in Social Media
Britain’s favourite fashion guru has been one of the biggest influences on spectacle wearers everywhere, not just in the UK, but on a global basis. His love and pride of his own prescription glasses has changed the way that we look at specs in the world of fashion. Not only has Gok turned glasses into a fashion accessory, but he’s created a whole new look that both men and women can imitate – the ‘geek chic’ and the ‘metro-sexual’.
Our spec-proud style guru is just as popular online as he is on our television screens and on our book shelves. The Gok Wan Facebook fan page has 344,901 fans and counting! Whether people love him for his prescription glasses, his impeccable fashion sense, or his love of curvy women, it’s clear to see that the world of social networking welcomes him with open arms.
Facebook Appreciates Prescription Glasses
The I Love Geeky Glasses fan page is close to reaching the thousand-fan mark. But that’s not all. Other appreciation groups on the networking site include We Love Nerd Glasses, Glasses Are Sexy, Glasses Are Cool, Prescription Glasses Are For Hotties, and many others. Twitter also has a part to play, giving celebs and role models such as Gok Wan a direct platform to speak to his fans through a simple status update. With 96,466 (and still counting) followers, Gok’s Twitter page is a great way to engage his adoring public. His recent Tweets talk about his love for seafood sticks, his support for fellow celebrity Fearne Cotton’s latest charity project, and launching a new fashion campaign at Debenhams.
