John Lennon is one of the most recognizable names (and voices) of the 20th century—and now you can channel his iconic style with these Lennon sunglasses by Modekungen.

Fashion has enjoyed bringing these [mod, circular frames](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modern-retro-collection) back to the forefront time and time again, but Modekungen has managed to put a [fresh twist on them](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/upside-down-sunglasses). These glasses feature two set of frames: the main set that you look through, and a smaller replication of them on the side for pure ornamentation purposes.

These shades would be a perfect [boho-chic accessory](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vintage-soul-collection) for any hippie-dippie music festival or lazy summer day. Lennon’s legacy is no way under threat, but you can continue to perpetuate his influence through these groovy frames.
