Stylishly Personalized Eyewear

Custom Made Warby Parker Glasses by You

— September 17, 2010 — Business
Designer Warby Parker knows the frustration of shopping for eyewear, and has thus brought the world of eyewear and shoppers together. From the frame to the color, the Warby Parker glasses are custom-made by the shopper. Parker's site enables the users to upload face pictures and superimpose the glasses to ensure a proper fit.

Also beneficial is the free trial session. Not only that, the Warby Parker glasses are very inexpensive -- Parker believes eyewear should not be priced as high as they usually are; therefore, a reasonable cost would make for a better eyewear shopping experience.
Trend Themes
1. Customizable Eyewear - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop a platform that allows customers to fully personalize their eyewear, from the frame to the color, for a unique and tailored shopping experience.

3. Affordable Eyewear - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introduce a line of eyewear that offers high-quality and stylish frames at a significantly lower cost, challenging the traditional high pricing of the eyewear industry.
Industry Implications

2. Augmented Reality - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Collaborate with eyewear brands to develop augmented reality technology that enhances the virtual try-on experience, revolutionizing the way customers shop for eyewear.
3. Direct-to-consumer Fashion - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Establish a direct-to-consumer fashion brand that specializes in affordable and customizable eyewear, offering consumers a convenient and cost-effective alternative to traditional eyewear retailers.
