The Changing Of Glasses Being Symbol Of Vogue
The aviator glasses have been necessary items for fashionable people in summer, but the evolutionary history of them are widely divided. It is easy to understand that all of the countries want to be the cradleland of the sunglass now that it is so popular now. But there can be only one mother country, and which can it be?
Now, there are at least three countries claiming that they invented eyeglasses firstly. 500 years ago, some Spanish missionaries mentioned in their books that they brought glasses back from China, but it is a pity that there is no tangible object as a proof. Another version has it that the Eskimo had used a kind of woody goggles 500 years ago, which were actually a long piece of board with two finedrawings on it. Obviously, this kind of article can not be seen as sunglasses.
It is convincible that modern sunglasses were invented by European. The image of Douglas MacArthur, the American General of the Air Force, with a corncob pipe in his mouth and a pair of AO black sunglasses, has been deeply rooted in people’s heart. At the same time, more and more hollywood stars have begun to be fond of wearing this kind of dark glasses. Thus aviator eyeglasses have come into fashion widely among broad masses and in this way the pilot style glasses have become a forever classic.
In the 1950s, Elvis Aron Presley’s music was spreading all over the world. His iconic ducktail hair style, as well as his dressing up of wearing sunglasses in goose egg style with a piece of downward-pointing triangle iron, was being imitated by a crowd of young people. When it came to 1960s, the Beatles was leading a vigorous music culture movement which swept the whole world and meanwhile completely buried Elvis Aron Presley’s dynasty.
The small-bois iron thin-spectacle-frame round glasses often resting on John Lennon’s nose and the dark glasses of the same style also influenced the exterior trend of all dark glasses at that time. Eyeglasses were becoming rounder and rounder, plumper and plumper; their design also became more and more courageous.
While in 1970s, the exterior of glasses developed back to the angular style little by little. Plastic sunglasses with slick broadside and round corners were more and more popular. The lenses came with gradual changing colors as well. The famous fashion designer Yves Saint Laurent was wearing a pair of this kind of eyeglasses at that time.
When it came to 1980s, it was the time for the square frame eyeglasses with obvious coners. The designer Karl Lagerfeld who took over Chanel in 1983 and always weared such a pair of slightly squared dark glasses, was a representative. The image of his wearing dark glasses had early been applied to brand designing, and Karl Lagerfeld, Teddy Bear and Karl Lagerfeld Bag were the best examples.
In 1990s, the trend of fashion became more and more diversified day by day, not only the glasses style of prolate and evolution color lens, but also goggles and ski goggles have ever been the most popular fashionable accessories. Even the antiquated rimless sunglasses were no longer the patent of grandparents. All kinds of borderless aviator eyewear inlaid and coupled with gold, raw wood or gems, leather, can all be a fashion.

Betcha Bottom Dollar $8.06 From the first strains of the opening track, “Sisters,” it’s clear that Betcha Bottom Dollar is not a typical debut album. But then the Puppini Sisters are not a typical pop act, at least not in the 21st century. Their close, three-part harmonies are reminiscent of the vocal groups of the 1930s and 1940s, and particularly the Andrews Sisters. But rather than sounding like an anachronism, the Puppi… |
