6 Sunglasses Trends To Look Out For This Fall 2023

From retro shapes to bold colors, we rounded up the 6 best sunglasses styles to try this Fall 2023.

Eyewear is a very personal accessory, and can often establish a preconceived vibe of your style and personality. This ideal accessory, in all its wonderful shapes, sizes and colours, are to summer what boots are to winter: necessary, sought after and desired. Not only are they a necessary fashion accessory, but they are also functional and serve the same purpose as sunscreen to protect against UV rays.

The return to creative self-expression and dressing up is another reason for this year’s bold and vibrant sunglass trends, says Beth Kanfer, fashion director of accessories and footwear at Nordstrom. “Sunglasses that stand out in eye-catching silhouettes will get you noticed are important this year.” “From futuristic to retro silhouettes, or bright and bold colours, it’s all about sunglasses in eye-catching shapes.” Needless to say, sunglasses are not only essential for summer but have become a key accessory for all seasons, whether it’s fall or spring.

Michael Kors, Yves Saint Laurent, Christian Dior, Fendi, Miu Miu, Dsquared2 and many bigger fashion houses have already tested this trend on their Fall 2022 runways, and of course, they rocked it.
