Crazy Fashion Trend - Lensless Glasses
This is the latest fad in Hong Kong and several other Asian countries. It's common to find people sporting empty plastic frames, in a variety of bright colors that match their outfit or their hair. It might confuse you as to why anyone who didn't have to wear glasses would want to. But they seem to have reasons of their own.
According to popular radio host Chu Fun, the empty glasses are great because they match her outfits, but they are also practical. When she doesn't have time to put on makeup, the lensless glasses are great to cover up dark circles, she says. They also don't blind her by fogging, or get stuck to false eyelashes or mascara. Chu has four pairs already, in black, pink, red and purple.
