Whether you are lounging on a tropical beach, exploring a bustling city, or hitting the snowy slopes, there is an accessory you can’t do without — a pair of sunglasses. The right shades not only provide essential eye protection but also enhance your look, so make sure to pack them while gearing up for holiday travels. Don’t know which ones to pick? Our guide is here to assist you with the trendiest frames of the season!
Neat oval sunglasses are a timeless staple that can hang out in your wardrobe for years and still stay to the point. Shopping for them in 2024 favours slim minimalistic silhouettes like these ones from Miu Miu, Prada, and Gentle Monster.
Nostalgia is a constant red thread of sunglasses trends, so think of the period you would love to go back to. If the answer is the 2000s, you are lucky as rectangular tinted models (for example, those from Cartier, Gucci, and Prada) will not just bring you flashbacks, but elevate your style as well.
Another curtsey to that epoque is sporty styles, but don’t go too literal and try on some contemporary interpretations from Prada, Loewe, or Gentle Monster.
If you want to travel in time even further, choose aviator frames, but make it retro - just like these from Cartier, Dita, and again Cartier
…or go oversize with 70s-inspired frames from Tom Ford, Gucci, and ALAÏA.
Cat-eye is another returning silhouette, but now it has transformed. Opt for its contemporary edgy or even futuristic interpretations from Le Specs, Oliver Peoples, and Gentle Monster.
