The style was invented by [[Ray-Ban]] in 1956 and represented a refreshing break from the [[metal]] [[wire-rim glasses]] of the past. The original design resembles [[Cadillac]] [[tail fin]]s. Wayfarer glasses are seen by many as synonymous with [[punk]], [[hipster]] or ''geek chic'' style. {{Glasses}} [[Category:Eyeglasses]]
