History of round spectacles

at the end of the 1200s, bezicles appeared, round glasses without temples that were attached to the nose by pinching.

Round-shaped spectacles were the first to be invented. Round frames held the monopoly on eyeglasses for five centuries, until the oval frame finally appeared. In the 1960s, round frames were democratized thanks to the hippie movement they represented.

Popularized in 1962 by John Lennon and somewhat forgotten in the 1990s, rounded eyeglasses and sunglasses are back in fashion in 2000, thanks to the Harry Potter film series.
In the last two years, vintage style has made a comeback among young and old alike, and rounded spectacle frames are enjoying growing and flourishing success.
In order to stay at the cutting edge of fashion, renowned designers have teamed up with talented designers to rewrite and reinvent the famous round frame.
Always on-trend, rounded spectacle frames remain timeless. They'll put you in the spotlight every time you go out.

Who are round glasses for?

Thanks to their shape, original round sunglasses or Eyeglasses defy time. Whatever the era, we've all worn a pair of round glasses at least once.

Their modern, trendy look appeals to us all, but round frames don't suit every body type.
The round shape is recommended for people with elongated or geometric faces who wish to soften their features while accentuating the softness of their eyes. Rectangular and square faces will be sublimated.

Your face is round, you like soft shapes, be daring and opt for a round frame. Your personality will set you apart from your friends, and you'll assert your character.
If you've opted for large frames, you'll need to be careful with your eyebrows. Your round-shaped glasses can hide them by moving upwards, which would break the harmony of your physique.

As always, people with oval faces will adopt these emblematic glasses with no problem, since their ideal anatomy allows them to wear all shapes of glasses.
Quirky or eccentric, but never outlandish, your rounded eyeglass frames will remain the essential accessory to your fashion outfit for this new season.
