When it comes to fashion awareness, the Italians are often a step ahead. With the rising temperatures, we take a look at which sunglasses stylish Italian women love.
In Italy, the weather is usually a lot better than here. Sunglasses are an everyday accessory there that you see all year round. But that’s not the only reason why we’re doing a little style zoom into the sunny country now. Because the Italians are simply fashion-conscious and always on the trail of the latest trends – when it comes to style, they are probably a bit ahead of us. It is not for nothing that some great fashion designers such as Donatella Versace or Giorgio Armani and style icons such as Sophia Loren come from the country where La Dolce Vita (enjoying life) is very important.
In any case, we love the style and the passion of the Italian women and take a slice of it straight away. Wearing great sunglasses is similar to wearing nice underwear – they make us feel sexy, diva-like or cool, depending on our mood. You can read here which models our stylish neighbors are wearing now.
Italians love these 5 sunglasses trends
The 70s are back
The 70s trend is not only reflected in the clothing, but also in the styles of sunglasses. As was the case last year, retro is a top priority. And retro sunnies can also be found on the catwalks of designers such as Louis Vuitton, Dolce and Gabbana and Dior. With the current models, the bigger the better. The frames can either be completely round, with rounded edges or even rectangular. Yellow-gold tinted or greenish lenses ensure the ultimate seventies look.
Monica Bellucci also wears a relaxed, elegant version of a retro model.
Subtle cat-eye look
The sunglass shape, which is reminiscent of cat eyes with its pointed lenses, is back. The Italians wear them in a more subtle version. While a few years ago really magnificent models with wide frames were still popular, we are now tending towards narrow lenses and simple frames in gold or silver. Nothing stands in the way of a dramatic appearance with this model, so the way is clear for the cat’s eye revival.
Colourful, more colourful…
Some like it gaudy. This is also the motto of the Italian style icons. They exchange discreet models for colored ones. Green, red, blue – there are no limits to your imagination with this trend. Slightly narrower, angular glasses or cat-eye shapes are very popular. It also looks harmonious when the color of your glasses is reflected in the outfit.
White with mega lenses
Those who don’t like it quite so gaudy will also get their money’s worth with this sunglass trend. White frames are very popular with Italian women. And if we choose such a mega model with large lenses like Chiara Ferragni, then such a simple color also requires courage. But the glasses are a real eye-catcher that can add a good portion of drama to a simple outfit.
Narrow and rectangular
Although Italian fashion has a reputation for focusing on femininity, sensuality and a dramatic appearance, fashion bloggers in particular like the edgy sunglass look. The rectangular narrow glasses are reminiscent of Matrix and immediately give your outfit a cool touch. The great thing is that this eyewear trend is actually super simple – black models with dark lenses are popular – but still delivers a wow effect.
