A girl wearing a 60's inspired dress, Prada skirt, sandals and Gucci shades is bringing along with her her dog and her baby in a personalized tricycle. She and a lot of others are now New York's newest fashion icons: fashionistas in bikes.
Last year, the city completed bike lanes in five boroughs stretching to a distance of 320 kilometers, making New York a little more bike-friendly. Since then, the number of cyclist in the city increased to almost 80%.
According to bicycle store owners, their sales increased in the last few months. From a dominantly male hobby, bike sellers suggests that the trend shifted from male buyers to mostly female.
These women either bought the bikes as is, or have them personalized for their own needs and for their own style. Personalized bikes either have glamorous baskets, fenders or had them transformed to tricycles to bring in their children and dogs with them when on a city tour.
With the status of the economy and the growing call for a cleaner earth, I would guess that the trend on bicycles in big cities like New York will continue in the coming years. And along with them, the growing number of fashionistas in bikes.
