Wondering about summer eyewear trends? There are thousands of frame styles that you can choose from to fit the occasion as well as your outfit. Whether you want to look like a naturalist, a pop icon or a trendy collegian, choosing the right eyewear by browsing through different shapes and styles to suit your face, is an enjoyable pastime.
Although round frames are extremely popular this season, let’s look at other materials and designs that are fashionable among men and women. Retro silhouettes are very popular in different frame shapes like round, pentagon, rectangular and several more that give the owner a sense of style with a touch of humor.
Mix of modern and contemporary
The recent collection of Ross and Brown has a sophisticated mix of cat’s eyes frames along with aviator and round frames. Square frames, designed in metal and available in a variety of colors and prints, offer a trendy look for men and women of all ages. The dark hues of a bygone era are now being combined with animal prints and other classy patterns to give frames a look of modern mixed with contemporary.
Aviator sunglasses
These iconic teardrop design sunglasses that Tom Cruise made famous keep going in and out of fashion. They are popular for their style statement and also for the design which protects eyes from sunlight and dust. Aviator sunglasses have undergone several changes since they were first spotted in the 1870’s and have evolved from thin to thick frames. They are also available in a wide variety of lens colors and shades now. The latest trend in aviator sunglasses includes rimless and semi-rimless styles and has moved away from the previous metallic colors to brighter hues.
Return of Red Rose Eyewear
The timeless appeal of Red Rose frames has now been adopted as a minimalistic design suited to modern style. Glasses now have a sleek aesthetic look with titanium screwless frames in round, square and rectangular shapes. This eyewear is now available in soft hues of blue, black, green and pink that are accentuated with keyhole bridges and detailed cutouts.
Eyewear for the beach
Look trendy while protecting your eyes with new eyewear that is in fashion this year. Clear frame sunglasses offer style and add a touch of minimalism to both formal wear and casual wear. These frames, when paired with mirrored lenses in blue, green and other contemporary colors, provide protection from the sun’s rays with a modern look.
Wayfarer sunglasses
The most enduring contemporary design in eyewear has proven to be stylish since the early 1950’s when it was first sold by Ray-Ban. With dark solid frames and dark shades, it continues to be the choice of celebrities who want to portray a tough image.
