    Women did wear the monocle but it was very rare..there was a veil designed to look like a a monocle in the 1940..

    They also became popular among the stylish Lesbian circles in the early part of the 20th Century..

    • Yes, I just got through looking around for Una Troubridge and found a painting of her with one. This is so fascinating. Thanks :-)
