The Ultimate SS21 Sunglasses Trend Guide

Accessories are as important as your clothes, because no look is complete without them. When it comes to sunglasses, they are not just an accessory, they are more of an essential piece, and just the way they complimented the Gucci look that dominated TikTok, Spring/Summer 2021 runways proved that sunglasses are not only there to protect your eyes, but to elevate your look in seconds.

Keep scrolling for the spring 2021 sunglasses trends we spotted on Fashion Weeks runways.  

Aviators

For those of us who want to skip tiny, oversized or cat-eyes sunglasses, there is one frame shape that keeps trending each season and that suits every face shape: aviator sunglasses.

Aviators in SS21 collections came colored, adding a modern touch to this timeless design. Our favorites are the transparent ones spotted at Tom Ford and the orange aviators seen at Tod’s. If you’re opting for something shinier, the yellow mirrored aviator sunglasses at Thom Browne will definitely compliment your looks.

Classic black

Nothing says classic style like black but the black sunglasses from Spring 2021 runways definitely stand out from the crowd. If you’re opting for some edgy looks next spring, you have to own classic black shades, for an elegant yet strong look at the same time. What we love about a classic timeless black is that it goes with everything, anytime.

You can always opt for low-key chic with Chanel’s sunglasses, or make a statement with Versace’s big and bold design.

Rectangular

Feels like tiny sunglasses are giving room to a more versatile and mature trend: the rectangular sunglasses. Not only their rectangular shape is attractive, but also the frame colors are designed for bold and adventurous women. Pink frames at Blumarine vs Green frames at Salvatore Ferragamo, while Miu Miu went for some little shiny stones to embellish the rectangular pink frame.

Transparent

They project confidence. Transparent sunglasses are a fresh and fun way to add a vibe to your look, whether in no color transparent at both Fendi and Victoria Beckham, with flat tops, or adding a chic vibe with Max Mara’s orange nuance transparent lenses.

Geometric Shapes

Strong geometric frames will flatter your face and give you a style that is far from ordinary. Designers have come up with bold and creative geometric frames for next spring, whether bio-acetate frames made from bio-based materials at Stella McCartney, revisited cat-eye at Chloé or twisted rectangle at Boss.

Oversized

Mini sunglasses might hit the runways every season, but SS21 collections proved that oversized sunglasses are a must in our wardrobe. Make a statement, guarantee your comfort, and elevate your look with  XXL sunglasses. Our favorites are from Acne, Etro and Dolce and Gabbana.
