Talk about Your Mimesis ...
Palin Eyeglasses are a Hot Item
"Not since Jackie Kennedy's sense of fashion gave a lift to the pillbox hat industry has a political figure had such an affect on anything people wear. But optic shops around the country say women are calling in search of eyeglasses like the ones Sarah Palin wears. Fashion mags are nutso about this.
"ABC News said that the company that makes the glasses started getting calls right after she hit the national spotlight."
And she's inspired a desire not just her glasses, and her hairdo, but for her clothes brands and shoes, too!
More on fashion and this election.
More on desire and fashion imitation.
