the double bridge.


street style: chic minimalistic double bridge.

street style: effortless combination of old meets new.

street style: retro over sized double bridge frame.

the double bridge Aviator sunglasses made popular by Ray Ban, but now manufactured and designed by many.

Let's talk about the Double Bridge frame.
This 70's style frame is back and no longer just for your grandfather. You may in fact already own a "double bridge" frame disguised as sunglasses. Does the Ray Ban Aviator ring any bells? There are more than just a few people rocking the Double Bridge sunglass made most popular by Ray Ban, but Tom Ford, Mykita and SALT. all have some stellar styles too. This look in an ophthalmic frame is so chic and quite flattering. It still speaks to the geek-chic trend that is dominating eyewear at the moment, but has a slightly more refined and minimalistic feel to it.
Depending on your face shape and overall style you could reach for the architectural lines of Mykita's "Bent" frame or if you prefer a more retro feel grab the Tom Ford 5290.
Where can you find these fun styles and great frame shapes? At SIGHT, of course ;)
