The Bernard retro designer glasses are large, rectangular costume glasses from Boland with a thick, glossy black frame and clear lenses. They are intended for women and men who want to give their outfit for a disco party a distinctive retro look. The wide top rim runs straight across the nose bridge, so the glasses sit across your eyes from the front like a solid bar.
What does the frame of the Bernard glasses look like?
The frame of the Bernard glasses is glossy black, wide and angular, with two large rectangular lenses that you can see through.
- The entire frame, including the temples, has a glossy black finish.
- The lenses are clear, so your eyes remain visible.
- The rims around the lenses are thick and have slightly rounded corners.
- The temples are attached to the frame with hinges, so you can fold them in when storing the glasses.
- The frame consists of 78% polycarbonate, 20% PMMA and 2% copper.
- The glasses are suitable for both women and men.
Large black frames from the disco era
Oversized glasses with thick rims are characteristic of retro fashion from the disco era, when glasses were not meant to blend in but rather to frame the face. This designer frame plays with that image: a heavy, sleek frame that is immediately recognizable as vintage at a party. Because the lenses are clear, you can also see with them inside on a dark dance floor, unlike with sunglasses.
Accessories to complement the black designer frame
The black designer frame works best when the rest of your look lets the sleek frame speak for itself. Women can pair it with bright lipstick and large hoop earrings, while men can opt for a gold chain or a shirt with a wide collar. If you want glitter in your disco look, keep the makeup around your eyes light, so the thick black rims do the work.
Order the Bernard retro designer glasses and complete your disco look in one go, whether you are taking to the dance floor as a woman or a man.
