The Best \u201980s Glasses Frames<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Authentic vintage glasses may seem enticing, but they\u2019re dated by definition, so you\u2019re stuck dealing with features that were standard decades ago.  Newer \u201980s-style glasses generally let you pick from more modern options, including colors<\/a>, materials<\/a>, lens enhancements like anti-reflective coatings<\/a>, and lens types<\/a> like progressive lenses<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But we\u2019re here to talk about choosing the best \u201980s glasses frames<\/em>. Not to sound like a broken record, but we can\u2019t say this enough: The \u201cbest\u201d glasses for you, old-school or otherwise, are the ones you like best. So, take these \u201980s glasses style suggestions as a starting point to finding the eyeglass frames that resonate with you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

Cat-Eye Glasses<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Cat-eye glasses<\/a> are a much-loved and flattering design with outer corners that sweep upward toward the temples. Though they\u2019re a timeless style, cat-eye glasses experienced a particular resurgence of popularity in the \u201980s. They\u2019re a touch more flamboyant than your average round or square frames, so it makes sense that they\u2019d blend seamlessly into a decade known for its far-out fashion trends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, try cat-eye glasses whenever you want a look that\u2019s glamorous, fashion-forward\u2014and just a little rebellious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n

Aviator Glasses<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

No collection of glasses from the \u201980s would be complete without aviator glasses<\/a>. The eternally cool aviator style was first adapted in the 1930s from eyewear worn by military pilots. Since then, they were never really off the radar. But aviator glasses and sunglasses got a boost in the \u201980s, thanks to one \u201cthrilling\u201d pop musician\u2014among others\u2014who wore them in music videos, and box-office stars who sported them on screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modern aviator glasses are pretty much indistinguishable from aviator glasses from the \u201980s. They\u2019ve got wide, teardrop-shaped lenses and, usually, thin metal frames<\/a>, often with a top bar running from lens to lens at the browline. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n

Oversized Glasses<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Oversized round or square glasses were a staple of \u201980s glasses fashion. Truth is, oversized glasses were popular in the \u201970s, too. But the big suits, chunky chain jewelry, and voluminous hair of the \u201980s lent themselves to similarly big eyewear. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, \u201980s oversized glasses are a righteous redux that anyone can embrace. Modern versions usually (but not always) feature prominent frames as well, often made of acetate. One fun way to embrace this trend is to get \u201980s oversized glasses frames in a contemporary colorway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just make sure they\u2019re still the right size for you\u2014that is, they fit properly<\/a> and flatter your face shape<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n

Round Glasses<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The \u201980s were nothing if not a decade of style contradictions\u2014think super-short hairstyles vs. humongous \u201cbig\u201d hair, or form-fitting tube dresses vs. drop-waist baggy frocks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In true \u201980s contradictory form, as much as oversized glasses were a thing, little round glasses<\/a>, often with wireframes, were also popular in the \u201980s. Some of these circular glasses were very<\/em> small\u2014not much larger than a silver dollar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While teeny 1980s glasses definitely make a statement, wearing round glasses that fit your face may resonate with you more. Try on a variety of round glasses. If you like the look of one, that\u2019s the right pair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n

Browline glasses<\/a> are rimless or thin-rimmed at the bottom of the lenses but have a thicker rim at the top. The look somewhat mimics eyebrows. Since \u201980s eyebrows could be rather prominent, it\u2019s no surprise that glasses with bold browlines were popular \u201980s glasses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Best Advice for Choosing \u201980s Glasses: Have Fun<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We hope this look back at the four-score decade has you looking forward to wearing some of these \u201980s glasses styles. We do suggest that you get new frames in a vintage style rather than using vintage frames that were actually made in the \u201980s. This way, you\u2019ll have the look you want with the durability and features you need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether you\u2019re getting prescription glasses, sunglasses<\/a>, or both, embrace the process of picking the perfect style and have fun trying them all on<\/a>! You may surprise yourself with what you ultimately decide. And if you can\u2019t pick just one pair? Bundle your two favorites<\/a> and save 15%.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
