The Dream Doesn't Have to Die with the Sony Walkman iPhone Sticker
Armida Ascano — October 27, 2010 — Tech
Retro revival gets its revenge with these featured Sony Walkman iPhone skins. An ironic appeal against the revolution of personal music players, the Sony Walkman iPhone decal bears a striking resemblance to a real Sony Walkman.
The accuracy of this nostalgic piece is in its creative "function" designs. The Sony Walkman iPhone decal comes in a sunshine yellow and also features an AM/FM dial, making it ultra realistic.
Implications - Due to the recent recession, there has been a resurgence of retro and vintage styles. Money-conscious consumers would make their purchases at more affordable thrift stores, and now choose to shop there for their unique products. Companies should incorporate elements of antiquity into their products to appeal to their target demographics.
