Backward Glances has all your 60s glasses styles!

60s-glasses

All the iconic 60s glasses, like John Lennon sunglasses, Janis Joplin glasses, and Jackie O glasses, perfect for your 60s fashions.

Did you know that John Lennon began wearing his signature round glasses in 1966, when he wore a pair of old-fashioned round “granny glasses” in his role in the Richard Lester film “How I Won the War”? Before that, he wore glasses more in the Buddy Holly style, or no glasses at all on stage (and struggled to see as he was severely myopic). Lennon’s round glasses became his trademark, and whenever he drew a caricature of himself, it was always with round glasses and long hair. Now everyone refers to those round 60s glasses as “Lennon Glasses”.

All glasses are $8 each, or two for $15
