Whether the fabled Club Tropicana really ended up existing in the 80s matters less than what people imagine in their minds eye of how it would’ve looked & felt. But there’s no doubt that scene could not have been complete without the inclusion of these era defining sunglasses that captured & now illustrate { for anyone who didn’t live through that era } a tiny bolt of popular culture. They are a genuine original of design because dayglo was a craze that exploded then & was an innovation particular to that period, as was the idea of having a permanently attached matched string holder. The general adoption of lightweight matt finish nylon frame materials was also innovative as they had a flexibility way beyond traditional plastics/acetate. Add to this the metallic gold colour burst mirrors & slightly oversized dimensions that was fashion for the sake of fashion attention seeking, a concept so mundane in the present day it probably appears strange to mention it. We can pretty much guarantee that if you are an instagram show off, not only will you be the first to flex this look, but you won’t have to worry about your little sister finding a cheapro repro of it on Asos in a years time.
