This blog is dedicated to ladies in glasses. The vast majority of the portraits on this blog feature ladies wearing glasses near their own Rx. I felt that this would give a more natural flavour to the pictures and also a more natural setting for the photo shoots from which the pictures on this blog are selected. Nearly all the glasses featured in this blog are from my own collection.

Grazyna 073
Christian Dior glasses first caught my attention when I was working in Switzerland in 1976. Their first frames were in basic colors: red or green or blue. The frames had a consistent design with a "signature stamp" all of its own. You could recognize a pair of Dior glasses even from the far side of the street. Dior was also the first who put his logo on the arms of the glasses. Compact discs had not been invented so the abbreviation "CD" stood for Christian Dior. Two years after their breakthrough, Dior changed the colors of the frames to suit brunettes even better. This narrow frame 1200 was made around 1978.
