The cross glasses are party glasses with two cross-shaped lenses set in a rimless frame with gold-coloured temples. The dark lenses extend across the cheeks, making the cross shape immediately visible from a distance. Wear them to a gothic party, Halloween party or metal and punk-themed event, and they’ll suit both women and men.
What are the cross glasses made of and how big are they?
- The frame and temples are made of metal, while the cross-shaped lenses are made of PVC.
- The glasses measure 13.5 x 14 x 7 cm, so the crosses extend well beyond the eye sockets.
- They are black, with a gold-coloured nose bridge and hinges for contrast.
- Two silver-coloured rivets on each lens attach the crosses to the temples, and transparent nose pads rest on the nose.
- The frame is rimless: the lenses themselves form the outline, without any border around them.
The cross shape as a party look
The cross is one of the best-known symbols in gothic, metal and punk fashion, appearing on jewellery, prints and accessories. Because the shape is featured on the lenses rather than as a pendant, the symbol sits right in the centre of your face and stands out in every photo. Dark lenses enhance this effect by partially concealing your eyes. Keep in mind, however, that these are party glasses: the shape restricts your vision, so wear them for the look rather than trying to see through them all evening.
How to create a recognisable gothic look
Pair the glasses with black clothing, mesh or leather-look pieces and silver-coloured jewellery. Dark eye makeup or a glittery look around the eyes will stand out beneath the open lenses, as the frame does not cover the sides of your face. If you’re wearing a wig with bright locks or long black hair, the clean lines of the crosses will stand out even more. The glasses are also a great addition to a metal band look or vampire outfit.
