Make Your Sunglasses a Costume
Start with the frames you can pick up cheaply, then add the coat, the wig or the cap that turns them into a character.
Dr. Disrespect Red tactical vest and a mullet wig
CrowleyRound tinted lenses and a pea coat
The Notorious B.I.G.Flat cap, gold rope chain and dark framesPick the Frame Shape That Sets the Era
The frame shape does most of the work, because each one reads as a different decade on its own. Round wire frames land in the sixties and in science fiction, a thin gold aviator reads as eighties action, wayfarer squares read as a blues band or a detective show, and a wide cat-eye reads as a magazine editor.
Neo wears small round lenses with a leather trench coat, Walter Sobchak’s orange-lens aviators sit over a travel vest and cargo shorts, and Miranda Priestly sets a cat-eye above a white wig and a black wrap blouse. Pick the frame second, after the outfit, and the shape will tell you which decade you are dressing for.
Suits and Uniforms the Frames Finish
A dark suit or a uniform gives the frames something to sit against, which is why a plain black pair carries these costumes on its own. Add the coat, the tie or the cap and the look reads immediately in a photograph.
Men In Black pairs a black suit, a white shirt and a solid tie with dark frames and a neuralyzer prop, Elwood Blues wears wayfarers under a black trilby, and Dr. Disrespect builds his streamer look from a red tactical vest, a black mullet wig and a headset. A long black coat does the same job for the leather-and-lenses looks.
Music, Screen and Street Looks
Stage and street looks let you go louder with the tint. Gold or mirrored aviators read as a rock frontman, and a flat cap with a rope chain reads as Brooklyn rap, so the frames stay the quiet piece in a busy outfit.
Axl Rose wears gold aviators with flag-print leggings and a red bandana, The Notorious B.I.G. tops a patterned shirt with a flat cap and a gold rope chain, and Eazy-E adds a Compton cap, a curled cosplay wig and a front-zip jacket over his jeans. Mirrored lenses only work at a distance, so keep them for the stage.
Buying and Wearing the Frames
Order the frames early, because the licensed shapes sell out before Halloween, and a plated metal frame photographs better and holds its shape where a party-shop pair will not.
Tyler Durden’s red lenses suit a Fight Club look with a rust leather jacket, Sarah Connor wears aviators with a tank top and a utility belt, and Maverick Mitchell puts dark aviators on a flight suit from Top Gun. Plain shapes cover the agent and detective looks for a few dollars, so buy those last and take your time over the one pair that has to look right.
Sunglasses Costume FAQ
What is the easiest sunglasses costume?
A government-agent look. A black two-piece, a white shirt and a dark tie is a whole costume, and the frames are the only new piece you need.
Can I wear my own prescription frames?
Yes. Most costume pairs come with plain or lightly tinted lenses, so wear your own and add the coat, the wig or the hat that pushes the look toward the character.
Which frames work for a group costume?
Dark frames dress a whole group at once with black two-pieces, and a music crowd works the same way as long as each person adds the cap, the chain or the bandana that marks their own character.
Where should I buy them?
Party shops carry plain shapes by the dozen, and the licensed pairs are worth ordering early because they sell out before Halloween. Check the tint before you plan to wear them at night or on a stage.
Do I need the dark tint?
No. Clear or lightly tinted lenses read the same in photographs and let you see where you are going, so save the dark tint for the daylight characters and the stage looks.
Choose Your Sunglasses Costume
Choose the frames that match the character, then keep the outfit simple and let them do the work. Dark agent frames cover the suits and the uniforms, gold aviators cover the action and stage looks, and round lenses cover the science fiction heroes. Two or three pairs get you most of this page, so start with the shape, settle the tint, and only then shop for the coat or the wig around it.
