Even the trendiest frames for 2021 will not perform their function if they don’t protect against detrimental sun rays. During summer, a strong ultraviolet light destroys your skin, hair and sight. It’s worth investing in proven brands. Dior, Fendi or Mykita - an eyewear design label is a synonym of safe and secure shopping. Before you add a pair or two to your cart, check the current trends (they’re super important, honestly!), see the rules of eyewear savoir-faire here, and wear your favourite ones right away! Here are four of the hottest models for the current season.
Nodding to Jackie Onassis, a fashion icon who wore them in the 1960s, the XXL sunglasses are back. Even though it’s been over 50 years since their debut, they keep coming back in various iterations. XXL sunglasses are here and they are among the most fashionable frames for 2021.

This year, they’re bulky and they showcase a retro tortoiseshell silhouette (see Alaia) and a solid black outline (see Mykita). Curved, but subtly raised frames (Fendi sunglasses) that will optically slim your face as well as cat-eye glasses that fit all face shapes, are here to stay and make a statement.
You can’t imagine an edit of cool sunglasses for 2021 without futuristic and edgy models, including the ones inspired by the American media franchise The Matrix, or a pair from the 1967 holiday photo of Princess Margaret, that looks like it could be taken this season.

Frames of this type usually have a shape of an elongated ellipse or other distinctive forms. They can resemble classic ski goggles or laboratory eyeglasses. They can also boast a frameless silhouette with reinforced lenses and temples. Think Dior’s Gipsy sunglasses or the latest models from Bottega Veneta.
Amid bold proposals for 2021, we can also find half-moon sunglasses. They are the perfect compromise for those who are not ready yet for the aforementioned out-of-this-world Princess Margaret sunglasses.
Right next to Fendi’s rounded sunglasses, this season sees rectangular and angular models too - Celine is one of the brands endorsing them. It’s worth taking a glimpse at Dior’s Catstyle Dior sunglasses, too.
This report had to cover this model, too. Aviators, first designed for the US military, have been reimagined and got back in the game thanks to the Top Gun premiere, albeit they were very popular in the 1970s, especially with amber coloured lenses.

Sunglasses with metal frames and lenses in subdued colours like navy blue, grey, khaki, beige and black are going to be the most sought-after. Be sure to check what Givenchy or Diesel have to offer.
Classic Mykita shades or the statement-making frames from Fendi and Dior? Regardless of your choice, don’t forget to protect your eyes from sun rays with certified lenses from a reliable retailer. And don’t forget to opt for sunglasses with a runway vibe to them.
