2022 Sunglasses Trends: Everything You Need to Know

The hottest season of the year is upon us and you are still undecided on which sunglasses to buy? Don’t panic, you’ve come to the right place.
Let’s find out together what the 2022 sunglasses trends will be for a fashionable summer!

Firstly, in order not to make a mistake, it is important to understand what type of eyewear best suits our face shape.
It is essential to balance our facial features with those of the eyewear.
For instance, those who have very pronounced cheekbones will look especially good with frames with soft, rounded corners; on the contrary, a round or oval face will be enhanced by rectangular glasses with well-defined shapes.

Pastel Colors

When it comes to the latest sunglasses trends, pastel colors cannot be missed. From lavender to peachy pink, from sky blue to mint green… a rainbow of colors for all tastes!
By now, more and more people are opting for sunglasses to match their outfits, rather than the traditional black or tortoiseshell.

1970’s oversized sunglasses

Without a doubt, 1970 was a decade full of change, from all points of view.
Ten years of optimism, freedom, music and style.
It is no coincidence that in today’s most famous catwalks are recreated looks inspired by that very era: from hairstyles to shoes, from dresses to accessories.
And it is precisely with the latter that we have seen a real change.
From the thin and simple sunglasses of years past, oversized, colorful and flashy frames are appearing for the first time.
That’s why, even this year they cannot be missed to complete your outfit.

Statement sunglasses

Are you wearing a pair of jeans and a simple white T-shirt and want to make your outfit catwalk-worthy? Wear statement sunglasses and you’ll get a totally fashion-forward look in a jiffy.
Oversized, bold or super colorful, let your sunglasses make all the difference.
And what better accessory than these heart-shaped Gucci sunglasses women?

White frames

We often associate white with summer. Actually, this is a perfect color for all seasons.
As we have already mentioned, light colors, and first of all just white, give brightness to the face making even the dreariest winter days brighter.
A perfect example of this are Prada Symbole PR 08ys –  Prada sunglasses 2022.

Angular frames

Another trend of the moment are sunglasses with geometric and angular shapes, perfect for giving character and better defining the look.
From the front frame to the temples, the entire eyewear is characterized by the play of shapes and angles.
Perfectly geometric patterns that we find in the new Greca by Versace sunglasses 2022.

Shaded lenses

Let’s put frames aside for a second and shift our attention to lenses.
Put your dark lenses back in the drawer and make room for the new trend of summer 2022: gradient lenses in light colors that will make your face shine!
Pink and brown if you want to give warmth to your complexion, or green and blue if you prefer the cooler colors. In the new Ray Ban sunglasses 2022 collection, we find these RB1969 with pink gradient brown lenses.

The classics

If you don’t want to venture too far, rest assured- the great classics never wane! They are the traditional models that look good on anyone.
Timeless models that have made fashion history and that, despite the passing years, still remain the best glasses to invest in.
If you don’t want to go wrong, opt for a tortoiseshell model with green lenses like Persol po0649 sunglasses.

Aviator style

Designed in the early 1900s to protect pilots from the sun, they have become timeless iconic designs loved by all fashionistas.
With Ray Ban leading the way, all the major fashion houses have made glasses with this shape, perfect for both men and women.

Sporty sunglasses

Sporty sunglasses are increasingly gaining a foothold within the fashion world. From oversized ones, to goggles… all models designed to elevate sports performance to another level.
Without a doubt, if what you are looking for are purely sporty sunglasses, the best choices are Oakley and Rudy Project.
On the other hand, if you love the sporty style, but still want to give your look a fashionable touch, more and more high fashion brands are making models in this direction, from goggles to mirrored lenses. A perfect mix of sport and lifestyle – Rudy Project Overlap.

Cat-eye sunnies

Moreover, another timeless shape is definitely the cat-eye.
Super feminine, it suits almost all face types.
From the most neutral and classic tones, such as black and tortoiseshell, the brightest and summer colors are also worth trying for an exaggerated look!
For an elegant all-black style, Gucci cat eye sunglasses.
