Someone who may be best known for wearing sunglasses is pop-singer Elton John. The pop-star of the seventies wore the most unique and eccentric pairs during photoshoots, performances, and press conferences, in a variety of colors and frames. Fans say that Elton began the bold sunglasses trend because of his original style, which had never been seen or worn before. Elton was recognized for wearing sunglasses with attachments to their frames, including wires, rhinestones, and even feathers. In the first photo, the pair that he is wearing during one of his performances appears to be a normal pair of thick-framed circle sunglasses. If you look closely, the frames have circle-shaped silver wires attached. Elton was also often seen wearing sunglasses with different colored lenses, mostly pink and orange. His most classic pair can be seen in the second picture. Large, orange, bug-like lenses with a thick frame encrusted with rhinestones. It doesn’t get more Rocket Man than that.
