Round glasses are back in fashion for some time now. But this year they are really taking hold in North America. John Lennon was wearing them and recently his last round glasses sold for over $10,000 back in 2007. Yoko Ono has famously posted a picture of blood stained glasses, presumably, the ones John worn when he was shot on Twitter. She did it in unti-gun protest.But recently Johnny Depp brought the fashion back, right? He was very consistent with wearing his round frames to all public events. Recently in an interview he explained that he has a very bad vision and must wear glasses at all times to see a thing. He also said that has trouble acting in scenes where glasses must be taken off.
Round glasses add some style for sure. They are more popular among men this season. Round glasses make younger men look a bit older and older men a big younger. Older because of association with first glasses 200 years ago. Younger because these days round glasses are trendy, popular and require a daring person with style to pull them off.
If you are on a hunt for a good brand, Persol, YSL, Tom Ford and Prodesign have a number of options for you. Usually there are just one or two models per brand, because round is round - not much you can design with it. Choose among plastic and metal rims. Also, it is always an option to buy round sunglasses and convert them into glasses if you fall in love with specific frames.
