Glasses Santa Claus half moon

The Santa half-moon glasses are a gold-coloured eyeglass frame in which both lenses have a straight top and a rounded bottom. This shape immediately evokes the image of an old, benevolent man reading through wish lists over his glasses. You can wear them as a woman or man during Christmas, on Boxing Day, or at Toppers in Concert.

What exactly do these half-moon glasses look like?

• The frame is thin and gold-coloured, with two half-moon-shaped lenses.
• Between the lenses is a curved nose bridge that rests on your nose.
• The straight temples end in black tips that fit behind your ears.
• The glasses are designed for women and men and come as a standalone pair, without any other costume pieces.
• The frame is from the brand Wicked Costumes.

The half-moon glasses as a Santa Claus signature

In pictures and films, Santa Claus is often shown looking over a small pair of glasses low on his nose while going through his list of names. It is precisely the flattened top edge that makes this image recognisable, as the eyes appear above it. Sinterklaas is also often depicted with reading glasses over the Big Book, and therefore this frame is suitable for both holidays.

How to build the Santa look around the glasses

Place the glasses low on your nose above a white beard, so that the gold rim appears just above the moustache. This goes well with a red Santa suit with white trim, a Santa hat and black boots or boot covers. For Sinterklaas, combine them with a red tabard, a mitre and a long beard. As a Christmas lady, wear them with a red dress and a white wig with a bun.

Bring home the Santa half-moon glasses and read through the wish lists as Santa or Sinterklaas during Christmas dinner or on Boxing Day.
