Believe it or not, the first ancient form of sunglasses was created as far back as 2,000 years ago. Because the Inuits lived in regions with a significant amount of snow, it is thought that the Inuits created a form of sunglasses to protect their eyes which were made of driftwood, ivory, and bone. However, it was only in 1929 when Sam Foster invented the modern pair of sunglasses. While its main purpose was to protect the eyes against the sun's harmful rays, it quickly evolved into a trendy accessory loved by men and women alike.
If we were to ask you who owns the largest sunglasses collection, you'd probably think of Elton John, one of the world's most famous singers and fashion icons. However, the Guinness World of Records holder for the largest sunglasses collection is Lori-Ann Keenan from Hawaii, who owns 3,000 pairs! When it comes to the most expensive pair, the $400,000 Chopard fits the bill. This pair of sunglasses is adorned with more than fifty diamonds. Now that's quite a spectacle!
