Johnny Depp: Iconic Eyeglasses for a Bohemian Charm

Setting aside for a moment Johnny Depp’s controversial public image, we can safely say that he’s greatly admired for his incredible talent as an actor, particularly for his ability to shape-shift for his most eccentric roles. He steps into the shoes of bizarre characters with apparent ease, from the sensitive and scarred Edward Scissorhands to the wicked Sweeney Todd, and of course the unforgettable pirate Jack Sparrow, whose characterization Depp based on The Rolling Stones’ guitarist Keith Richards.

But besides his memorable roles, Depp made a name for himself also as a style icon, staying true to the same Bohemian style since his Hollywood debut. When we think about the actor, we can’t imagine him without his accessories: his beloved fedora, usually matched with a vest, his distinct signet and skull rings and, of course, a nice pair of glasses.

Johnny Depp’s spectacles and sunglasses have become a part of his public figure, from the round, tortoise shell frames with their vintage charm, to the tinted lenses that give him an enigmatic air.

In the end, it all comes down to confidence: Depp knows how to wear clothes and accessories with self-confidence and nonchalance.
