Check out the designs that will be in style this spring/summer


JUNE 20, 2020 9:12 AM EDT

The runways have spoken and stars have responded: the trendiest shades this spring-summer season are big, with loud geometric shapes, an aerodynamic style, or with a nostalgic vintage twist. They not only provide protection from the sun, but are also the ideal complement for summery outfits. Get inspired by celebrities such as  Millie Bobby Brown  and  Rihanna , to grab a pair of sunglasses from designer brands such as Versace or Gucci that will reflect your own individual style while still being on trend.

Maxi

Millie Bobby Brown has also got in on the square-shaped oversized sunglasses trend. Ellie Saab, Prada, and Ports 1961 were among the first ones to launch this design, which quickly became a must amongst street styles influencers.

Triangular

Geometric inspiration takes center stage once again! The 50s-style triangular shape made its debut on Blumarine and Miu Miu’s runways. If you have an oval-shaped face, this design will be perfect for you, just like it is for influencer-extraordinaire Chiara Ferragni ’s sisters, Francesca and Valentina.

Maxi and round

John Lennon-inspired sunglasses come in the form of oversized round glasses this season, with the likes of Telemundo host Rashel Díaz rocking them. This style has been seen on the runways of Nina Ricci, Max Mara, Alberta Ferretti, and Dolce & Gabbana .

Sporty

Sporty sunglasses will continue to reign all year round. Inspired by the likes of the Tour de France or straight off the ski slopes, this style is still hot in 2020 thanks to Versace , Bottega Veneta, Louis Vuitton, and the backing of Kim Kardashian.

Back to black

If you prefer black, Anne Hathaway gives us a lesson in style, just as Saint Laurent, Rochas, Zimmermann, and Coach 1941 did on their runways.

Vintage-inspired

The classics never go out of style. This year, your aviator sunglasses can get their fun in the sun again. So dust off your old frames, because Celine, Michael Kors, Max Mara, and Gigi Hadid , seen here in tie dye, show that they are a winning design for 2020.

Elongated triangles

Also en vogue are the slightly smaller, long, and triangular-shaped sunglasses (just like Rihanna’s ) that were spotted strutting down the Bora Aksu and Rokh runways for 2020.

Oval-shaped

And the hottest sunglasses of the ‘90s are back, thanks to designs by Rokh, Self-Portrait, Matty Bovan and influencers like Aimee Song who wears the style with flare.

And for the little ones?

Extravagant designs are trending for the youngest members of the household, too. Gucci, for example, went for hexagons, Moschino “rocked” them out, and Marc Jacobs proposed a butterfly shape. Little True Thompson and North West are only too happy to sport them.
