No. But given many of (e.g.) Balenciaga's ... offering's (https://www.balenciaga.com/en-us/women/accessories/sunglasse...), I'm sure there is a segment that would with the right marketing.

When I hear that name, all I can think of is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iE39q-IKOzA.
I wouldn’t personally, but I also wouldn’t wear headphones with cat ears on them, and those seem to be popular.
Apple put eyes that due this (with the goal of being realistic, not anime) on the Vision Pro and they got a lot of negative feedback, so who knows.

Sample data but most of my friends and I thought that the "faceplate" display was a poor decision because it was adding EVEN more cost to a device that was already obscenely expensive.

Between the crazy fisheye lens camera that could fit on a small set of sunglasses while managing to capture the facial expressions below the nose, and the AR-style translucency system to see "through the displays" - that's a whole lot of technical challenges and corresponding cost for what kind of amounts to a gimmick.
