Glasses really do make you look smarter. ksubi‘s 2011 eyewear collection, for example, is an optical paean to nerdom.
Called Ad Astra (meaning “to the stars”) the shapes and rimless lenses were inspired by the extraterrestrial obsessives from the 1950s and ’60s who, according to movies, were always super sexy in addition to being super smart, with their cat eye specs, corduroy jackets, binding woolen cardigans and shiny black shoes. Viva la sexy nerd, may you live long and prosper through style revivals like this one.
