Vintage 1984 Ray-Ban Wayfarer Sunglasses Print Advertisement — Original 1980s Fashion Ad
Approximately 10 x 12 inches.
This vintage 1984 Ray-Ban Wayfarer advertisement from Bausch & Lomb captures the electric street energy that made the Wayfarer the defining eyewear of the decade. The original print ad features three fashion-forward models posed against a graffiti-tagged brick wall, each sporting Wayfarers in bold colorways — red, black, and white — mirrored by the trio of frames displayed below. Headlined 'The Wayfarer Set / The Next Move,' this collectible ad documents the moment Ray-Ban repositioned the classic frame as a youth culture icon, fueled by Hollywood placements and MTV's rise. A compelling piece for fashion and eyewear collectors.
