A striking portrait of Carla in late 1950's fashion.
Seen from this angle, there is a cat eye aspect in
the frame of these myodisc glasses.
In the 1980's, long after myodiscs had disappeared
from the streets of Amsterdam, I bought these glasses
at the Waterlooplein flea market. Callers to the house
invariably grab for these glasses when they see my
collection. On one occasion, my then lady friend picked
out these glasses, put them on and then asked,
"would you still love me if I'd have to wear these?"
