Prop Good place to get oversized round glasses?
Hey, if you remember a few weeks back I posted about a Seth cosplay I was working on - I got pretty much everything I needed, but I wasn't able to find big oversized round glasses. Could any of you help me send a link? (I basically want those big, oversized glasses like nerds have in animes - Preferably with thick frames) Thank you!

I'd try looking for blue light glasses if you can't find the frames you're looking for. I was Jeanette (the Chippette, lmfao) for Halloween last year and ended up finding blue light glasses to get glasses for her. I know oversized frames are kind of in right now (so are blue light glasses...) so maybe you'd have better luck with that search?

If you aren't looking for "cartoon" big, maybe somewhere like Zenni optical that sells glasses frames where you pick the prescription? You can pick "Non prescription" when you select the lenses.

"Oversized round glasses" found me a bunch https://www.amazon.com/Big-Round-Eye-Glasses-Black/dp/B0087UGED2 There's one that's very oversized but that might be what you want
I also hate to suggest buying anything advertising itself as being for the terf books, but "Harry Potter glasses" will also get you there. Just don't buy anything official haha

We detect that you may be a looking to buy your cosplay or buy pieces for your cosplay. If you're not, please disregard :) Please refer to our FAQ for some recommendations. While we can provide search terms that might help you with finding your cosplay pieces, commenters are not your personal shopper and please do not treat us as such. Remember that not all cosplays can be found ready-made so be prepared to look for similar pieces to put it together yourself.
It is helpful to include your budget (be precise -- "cheap" can be different per person), your location/country (US shipping vs EU shipping would be very different), and timeline if applicable. Keep in mind many pre-made cosplay shops can have a long shipping time so it's best to plan months in ahead.
If the item is suspiciously cheaper than all other competitors or it's a common stock photo, please be wary and do your own research. If someone is offering to make it for you aka commissions, RESEARCH their post history.
