Bob Geldof (born 5 October 1951) is an Irish singer, activist, and humanitarian icon best known as the frontman of The Boomtown Rats and the driving force behind Live Aid and Band Aid. With his punk-rooted musical beginnings and sharp political conscience, Geldof became a cultural force in the 1980s—using his platform to galvanise global support for famine relief in Africa. Knighted in recognition of his humanitarian work, he remains an outspoken advocate for social justice, blending rockstar defiance with a statesman’s gravitas.

His personal style is rakish, eclectic, and unmistakably British—pinstripe suits with worn-in charm, layered textures, and a lived-in elegance that nods to rock history. Geldof’s eyewear often mirrors this well-travelled sophistication: he favours classic round or oval frames, tinted lenses, and vintage-inspired silhouettes with a poet’s edge. Think John Lennon meets Savile Row. He’s been seen in styles reminiscent of Ray-Ban and Cutler and Gross—frames that feel as storied as the man himself.
