History of Ray-Ban Wayfarer
Together with the
Ray-Ban Aviator, the Ray-Ban Wayfarer is another timeless icon in the fashion world. In 1956, Ray-Ban developed and manufactured the first pair of Ray-Ban Wayfarer sunglasses. They were originally designed in 1952 by Raymond Stegeman who worked for Bausch & Lomb. He created the Ray-Ban Wayfarers based on "a mid-century classic to rival Eames chairs and Cadillac tail fins". The new
Ray-Ban Wayfarer sunglasses are characterised by dark lenses and plastic frames. They are modelled with a rounded lens frame and a horizontal bar. For over 60 years, movie stars, rock stars and politicians have adored them including Marilyn Monroe, John F. Kennedy, The Beatles and Bob Dylan. The polarized Ray-Ban Wayfarers have been featured in many popular movies and TV shows and have become one of the most recognizable sunglasses in history. They are made for almost every type of outfit, face shape and skin tone. They are simple yet stylish.
They quickly became popular in the1950s and 1960s. For a few years, they flew under the radar however, in 1982 and then again in the mid-2000s, they came back into the spotlight after some clever product placement. They remain popular to this day! The Ray-Ban Wayfarer has transformed sunglasses from items that protected your eyes from the sun to sophisticated fashion statements. The Ray-Ban Wayfarer in tortoise shell with its unique and stylish design has always been a favourite item worldwide. Throughout the years, Ray-Ban Wayfarers have always adapted to the taste of consumers with innovative materials and different colours. After many decades, the Wayfarer continues to thrive and is loved by many!
