TREND #1
COOL COMFORT.
Stay-at-home times call for luxuriously comfortable clothing + eyewear.
The Victoria Beckham VB615S from Marchon Eyewear delivers oversized aviator style in cool black acetate.
TREND #2
COLOR-INFUSED COOL.
The Givenchy GV7170/G/S from Safilo is on point with lightly tinted blue lenses in an oversized silver aviator silhouette with crystal-encrusted temples.
From left: The Persol PO3237V from Luxottica serves up a cult-classic shape in a rich honey color. Furla style SFU235 from De Rigo REM pairs glitter-infused temples with a hipster rounded front with two-toned lenses. The l.a.Eyeworks Fotini frame takes a deep dive with an eye-catching sea water-inspired hue.
TREND #3
UNDERCOVER COVERAGE.
The Alexander McQueen AM0271S from Kering Eyewear serves up protection and style in an oversized gold semi-rimless look with rose gradient lenses punctuated with crystal-encrusted skull accents.
From top: Silhouette’s TMA Futura 4077 serves up a full-coverage blast from the past with a fashion-forward frame inspired by Silhouette’s iconic Futura sunglasses from the ‘70s. The Fysh F-3658 from WestGroupe offers a wide, squared silhouette with linear color-blocking accents. The Oakley Radar EV Path from Luxottica fuses protection and style as part of the Shield Your Eyes collection, providing the wearer with extra coverage in a full wraparound shield.
