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.

Irma 158
This fine portrait of smiling Irma in vintage cat eye glasses by Whitney concludes her come back as "Lady behind crystal veil".
Dear Irma, thank you so much for saving a day that seemed lost when the model did not show up! It was great to do another photo shoot with you. Much appreciated!

Glasses: Whitney, late 1950's
[L: -6.75; c-0.75 h / R: -7.00; c-1.00 h]
These glasses were supplied by Stephan from Bavaria and used during many photo shoots (Leonne, Connie, Christien, Claudia Allegonda, Lucy and Douce). I clearly remember seeing ladies wearing these glasses in the Amsterdam of my childhood.

Irma posing in solid, strong glasses made by Lozza in the mid 1970's. This pair was acquired at the famous "Waterlooplein" flea market in Amsterdam during the late 1980's. Many models posed in these glasses (Conny, Astrid, Farishta, Nel, Petra and Marleen) for my first weblog and it's nice to give the glasses another try. The frame design is ideal as high index lenses did not exist in the 1970's.

Fitted with extra thin lenses (1.67), these tiny glasses are subtle and refined. They were featured in my photo shoots with Marieke, Leonne, Claudine and Claudia Allegonda. Here Irma joins their ranks. One of my favorite portraits from this brief but much appreciated photo shoot!
