What Rimless Glasses are All About?

What Rimless Glasses are All About

Rimless glasses have stood the test of time for many years. Slaying the industry since the 1820s, these classic pairs can elevate your style effortlessly. Thanks to the 26th US President Theodore Roosevelt, their popularity grew immensely in the early 20th century. He sported these rimless glasses like a pro in different events. Apart from that, rimless glasses were spotted on some A-list actors such as Kate Beckinsale and Patrick Dempsey.

Rimless glasses don’t feature any kind of rim in the frame. They have tiny screws that are used to attach the lenses to the temples. Exposed from every side, these types of glasses are hardly noticeable. If you are currently looking for some minimalist eyewear pieces that are stylish and popular, rimless glasses have got your back.

What are Some of the Benefits of Rimless Glasses?

Take a quick look at some of the features of rimless glasses stated below:

Benefits of Rimless
  • Rimless glasses have a wide field of view - With rimless glasses, your peripheral vision will no longer be blocked by metal, plastic or some other material, thus giving you access to a wide field of view. Sometimes, frames are responsible for affecting your vision while driving or reading. That’s where rimless glasses come in handy.
  • They are lightweight and discreet - Full-rim glasses or half-rim glasses come with their own benefits. However, rimless glasses are the best choice if you’re looking for the most lightweight frames. Take a step toward top-notch comfort by choosing these lightweight glasses that are damn sophisticated.
  • Offers seamless transition - These glasses can complement different outfits and face shapes. The reason is the minimal design and all the contemporary style adaptations. You can get many different shapes from classic rectangles and squares to the trendy hexagonal styles in rimless design. The barely-there aesthetic is perfect to enhance your style while focusing on you, not your glasses.  

How to Rock Rimless Glasses?

Let’s explore some styling ideas that touch different aesthetics and settings so that you don’t have to pull out your whole wardrobe in confusion.

How to Rock Rimless Glasses

Rimless glasses naturally look subtle. This makes them perfect for a minimalist look. If you are in the mood for neutral tone outfits like whites, greys and beiges, then these glasses are a perfect accessory. You can also opt for a tailored blazer or clean-cut shirts to add structure for professional settings. They are ideal for office or smart-casual settings to enhance look and confidence.
