Lennon Rectangular Sunglasses

The story behind the Lennon rectangular sunglasses is pretty fascinating. It’s a world-renowned fact that John Lennon normally wore wide rimmed glasses with perfectly round lenses, the John Sebastian old-fashioned style, which were made to order as per prescription, which went on to become a part of his iconic public image. He also used lenses that were colored or darkened to screen out strong light from the eyes.

But at one time he was fascinated by the rectangular sunglasses that this group, called the Byrds (also known as the “American Beatles”) used. It was after he saw these glasses that he had these prescription sunglasses custom made. He felt it made him look less boring. This was a phase that didn’t last very long, but by then it became a fashion accessory associated with him.

Even today, the Lennon collection is in major demand by Beatles and John Lennon fans worldwide.
