It is that time of year again when the Spectacle Wearer of the Year Awards take place. Glasses have become a huge fashion statement in the last few years and this event allows spectacle wearers to showcase their glasses in a stylish and glamorous atmosphere and be in with a chance to win some amazing prizes.
New Irish model, Maria Gildea (20) will be heading to London in October to
represent Ireland in the international competition to find the Spectacle Wearer
of the Year for 2012. Maria from Ardara in Co. Donegal was signed
up by Assets Model
Agency a number of weeks ago having been spotted as having huge potential by staff at Specsavers in
Letterkenny when she went in to their store for an eye check up. She loves wearing glasses and says "The only thing I find difficult about them is
when I’m wearing false eyelashes." The model, who had only appeared in small charity fashion shows in her native
Donegal until this breakthrough, is looking forward to her first trip to London
to compete for the international title.
Having taken part in this competition myself in 2011 I would highly recommend it to anybody who wears glasses, either full time or as a fashion statement, to take part as it is such an amazing experience, I got to meet some amazing people and it also enabled me to be more confident when wearing my glasses.
