NAME THESE FRAMES Sunglasses are a crucial accessory among the jet set—less to protect against UV than to project ennui. Can you identify the shades-sporting celebs above? Check your answers below.

Sunglasses are supposed to be easy, the icon of effortless
cool. So why is it so hard to find a pair that doesn’t make
your head look weird? Is a cool pair of sunglasses—one
that actually protects your eyes—really too much to ask?
Nope. Sol Moscot, famed New York City optician to the
stars, has launched a line of vintage-inspired sunglasses
that recall glory days of effortless cool, the ’40s and ’50s.
Based on the Moscot Originals line favored by stars such
as Matthew Broderick and Johnny Depp, the sunglasses
come in old-school shades like traditional bottle green
and G- 15, a gray/green shade first created for 1930s pilots.
And the lenses themselves are glass instead of plastic,
which means they offer 100 percent UV protection while
granting the wearer a warmer, crisper view of the world.
The sunglasses retail for $159 and are available at
moscots.com or at any of the three Sol Moscot locations
in the city (118 Orchard St., Lower East Side; 69 W. 14th
St.; and 107-20 Continental Ave., Forest Hills, Queens).
All frames can be fitted with prescription lenses
for an additional charge.
