Glasses for Bangs | Scene-Stealing Eyewear

Proving its enduring appeal, Alexa Chung, Charlotte Gainsbourg, and Caroline de Maigret have continued to be inspired by this era and its stylish ease.

Modern frames with classic appeal, such the current favourite round and wayferer shapes, are an ideal pairing with this seminal style.

There are few hairstyles as iconic as the chin-skimming fringed bob, first popularized by Louise Brooks and later sported by Linda Evangelista, who brought the look from the 20’s to the 90’s and beyond. Natalie Portman, Michelle Williams, Rihanna and Carey Mulligan have all demonstrated how the style can be worn perfectly sleek or with texture.

As this cut is angular, softer hues and rounded edges are the best compliment to your bangs.

Most recently, Beyoncé debuted baby bangs, and launched a spirited online debate, but with the right attitude and accessories made a confident style statement.
