With sunglasses, what are the hottest and most exciting trends?
In 1952 Ray –Ban developed the square, plastic Wayfarer with grey tinted lenses. This continues to be a classic choice for today. This type of style is making a comeback with designers like D&G, Versace and Prada who are offering their own updated versions. The sizes will vary but the one thing that remains constant is the square blunted edges in a plastic frame with dark colored lenses. The new styles are lighter, wider and cover more of the face unlike the traditional Wayfarers. The classic tortoise shell sunglasses are continued every year.
Then there are the recent frames that are a hybrid mix of metal and plastic with lightweight polycarbonate lenses featuring a subtle tint. The frame colors are muted and show a raised logo on semi wide stems. D&G trends show monochromatic, high gloss frames with wider stems and dark tints. Versace offers material similar to Prada’s with geometric embellishments all over the lenses and down the wider stems. Versace favours the earth tones over the monochromatic austerity and outrageous logos. If Prada, Versace and D&G are too rich for your budget then consider going for the Ray-Ban Wayfarers. You can find these sunglasses for under $100.
If you really want to try and save your money then you can get replica or wholesale sunglasses. You will find many companies that offer these products. The wholesale glasses can save you even more and you can find them on the internet. As you can see there are many options when you are buying sunglasses.
