There are now a few days left before the start of the new year and we can’t help but orient ourselves towards the sunglasses trends of 2023. Sunglasses are also one of the coolest fashion accessories to wear when outdoors. They have the unique ability to give an extra touch of charm to the physical appearance by giving boldness and sharpness to one’s look.
Sunglasses trends are constantly evolving: from green frames to athletic glasses, from racer frames to sports glasses and colored frames.
Below are the trends for sunglasses that, on the catwalks and among celebrities, will be the most popular in 2023.
What are the 2023 sunglasses trends?
Let’s see what are the main trends that we will see during the year that is about to begin.
Sports frames
Athletic-inspired frames will continue to be trending for the upcoming season, as seen on the catwalks of the Milan Fashion Week.
Whether you’re mountain biking, playing football or just taking a walk in the woods, you need to protect your eyes, which is why sports eyewear will continue to be very popular in 2023.
Oversized corner
This nostalgic ’70s look pairs oversized frames with sleek style. It is a staple in the high-fashion collections of women’s sunglasses for 2023, but the same trend can also be found in the men’s sunglasses market.
If your facial features are round, choose angular frames such as square and rectangular ones. In 2023, these sturdy frames will be made from recycled plastic and will come with an oversized silhouette for a look that’s truly full of personality. These angular and oversized frames are geometric, characterized by neutral colors. Several models with tinted lenses in muted shades balance this maximalist look.
In 2023, we will also have a boom in oversized tortoiseshell frames.
You can show off your class with oversized metallic frames or opt for a more fun look with thick and heavy acetate frames . From next year, oversized sunglasses in bright colors such as green, yellow and red, but also dual-tone sunglasses will also be very trendy.
Eco-friendly frames
Eco-friendly eyewear will be all the rage in 2023, with a growing focus on sustainability in the fashion world as well.
According to industry experts, the influence of eco-friendly eyewear will be strong until spring/summer 2024.
In the various collections we will see sunglasses made with natural wood, coffee, cork and bio-acetate. In fact, many companies are working hard to become more sustainable and reduce carbon emissions during production.
There will be numerous brands that will present themselves on the market with lines of eco-conscious sunglasses made with eco-friendly materials such as recycled water bottles and recycled plastic.
Tinted lenses
70s retro-inspired colored lenses will be very popular in 2023, especially red, orange and yellow colored lenses. A trend that has been called the “new retro”. Metallic frames paired with tinted lenses will also be trending next year, as will aviator-style frames.
Aviator Sunglasses
A timeless that never sets. Since they were invented, there hasn’t been a time when we haven’t found them in the trending charts.
What makes aviators a real craze is their superb teardrop structure, accentuated by the elegant top temple.
The versatility of this structure is incredible as it makes aviators adapt well to all face shapes.
Round sunglasses
Round sunglasses, retro and refined, never fail to amaze. Their simple, glossy circular structure is a pleasure to look at, and the many collections ensure that there is something for everyone. If you have an edgy face shape, round sunglasses are something you can absolutely count on to enhance your facial features.
Wayfarer
In 2022, Wayfarers went around the world and the situation will not be much different next year. As one of the most iconic sunglasses models, the Wayfarer will not be a must-have in your wardrobe. Their square structure and protruding edges give Wayfarer sunglasses a very personal style. They are also ideal for all occasions.
Sunglasses with transparent frame
This eyewear model represents a contemporary style that is a real fashion of the moment. Their glass-like structure creates an incredible effect when paired with colored lenses, giving it a sophisticated elegance that is sure to impress. What makes the clear frame sunglasses even more amazing is their superb versatility: you can wear them on any occasion and make the right impression by pairing them with any outfit.
