FAQs
Are these glasses suitable for children?
These are generally designed for adult fancy dress but can fit most older children and teenagers comfortably.
Do these provide UV protection?
No, these are fashion accessories only and offer no protection against ultraviolet light.
Can I have prescription lenses put into these frames?
These frames are intended for costume use and are not designed to support prescription lens installation.
Are the rhinestones glued on securely?
Yes, they are designed to stay attached during normal use, but they should be handled with care to avoid snagging on fabrics.
What if I prefer a different color?
We also offer a white variant (model BA142W) which maintains the same classic 50s silhouette.
Can these be worn over regular prescription glasses?
It is not recommended, as the frame is not designed to fit over existing eyewear.
Troubleshooting
Ear pieces feel too tight or loose
Gently apply slight pressure to the hinges or ear stems to adjust the tension, being careful not to over-bend the plastic.
Rhinestones becoming dull
Use a dry, soft-bristled brush to gently remove dust particles trapped between the stones to restore their natural luster.
Lenses have smudges or glare
Clean the lenses exclusively with a clean, dry microfiber cloth; avoid harsh household chemicals or abrasive paper towels.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is straightforward: simply remove the glasses from the packaging and adjust the ear pieces if necessary to fit your head comfortably. Compatibility is universal, as these are designed as a one-size-fits-most costume accessory. To care for your glasses, wipe the lenses periodically with a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth to remove fingerprints or smudges. Store the glasses in a protective case or a dedicated costume box when not in use to ensure that the rhinestones remain intact and the frame does not get crushed or scratched.
