Unusual glasses from the past
Categories: Fashion
By Pictolic https://pictolic.com/article/unusual-glasses-from-the-past.htmlSunglasses are a typical fashion accessory of the 20th century. Although colored glasses were used to protect the eyes from the bright rays of the sun in antiquity, and tinted lenses were quite common in the 19th century, no one thought of them as a fashion accessory.
In the 1950s, sunglasses were still used primarily as protection against bright sunlight, while driving and skiing. Only representatives of the fashion avant-garde could wear them as a decorative accessory on their heads, even on a cloudy day.

5. Those who were critical of fashion innovation (the core of this target audience were mainly men involved in managerial activities at various levels) in the 1970s continued to be faithful to tradition and preferred glasses in dark, heavy frames, predominantly rectangular in shape. , which continued to remain one of the most popular in the seventies.
6. Despite the fact that the fashion of the 1970s is generally democratic in nature, the general love of consumers for brands was born, by the way, also in this decade.
7. And it flourished in a riotous color in the 1980s. It was at this time that a large number of collections of frames and sunglasses appeared, bearing the names of famous couturiers, fashion houses, and jewelry brands.
