TRENDING SUNGLASSES 2019

Audrey Hepburn. Grace Kelly. Marilyn Monroe. These are the icons who made cat eye sunglasses their own. This season, cat eyes will continue their 2018 resurgence, this time with a little added extravagance. Choose mirrored lenses, frames that are glittered or studded. This season is all about matching your cat eye sunglasses to your sparkling personality – perfect for Instagram!

You’ll also want to keep your eye on geometric and hot sunglasses in 2019. Indulge your taste for striking oval and circular styles that recall the 1960s and the Bohemian adventures of the Beat Generation. Take your own adventure into hexagonal designs, pioneered by Ray-Ban for S/S 2019. Square sunglasses are hot too, following the trend first set by Gucci. Oversize square silhouettes are now big news.

Aviators were created for swashbuckling pilots. This great classic is again set to be a key look, this time with a highly contemporary twist. Hot in the 1990s, the rebirth of aviators for S/S 2019 comes complete with hi-tech colours both for lenses and frames. Join Kim Kardashian and Rihanna in rocking the trend for sports sunglasses, blended this season with ultra-chic elegance.

White and turquoise lenses are a key look from Michael Kors, attention-grabbing red lacquer frames are central to Versace’s boldly coloured collection, while triangular pink lenses are a catwalk favourite from Burberry, the luxury house’s name proudly displayed at the temples. Givenchy’s transparent lenses, teamed with jewelled frames, are irresistible. Miu Miu, always finding a new way to your stylish heart, combines dark lenses, jewelled detailing and, as the final touch, a baby-pink ribbon to complete a high fashion finish for your beach days in the sunshine. Like a vintage touch? Choose a smoke finish for a mysterious look. Find your favourite from these fashion-forward looks for S/S 2019 and prepare for a great season in the sun!
