From afar, Linda Farrow’s Dunaway makes a theatrical entrance with its over-the-top black brow bar, crafted with Italian acetate. Upclose, the starry embellishments along the rim and temples take the drama to new heights. In celebration of the brand’s 50th anniversary, the iconic model is given an upgrade with 22-karat yellow gold-plated eyelets at the temples. Tie a scarf through the eyelets to make a nod to the oh-so-vintage style.
As Pantone revealed the must-have color for Fall 2020 being “Misty Jade,” Prada’s Decode is going to make a perfect summer-to-fall transition piece with its pastel mint lenses. Though if you think they are only pretty to look at, think again. Prada Chromic, the photochromic lenses exclusive to the fashion house adapts to any change of sunlight in a matter of seconds, to make sure you’re on top of your style game anywhere you go.
Aviator sunglasses seem to never go out of style. With the silhouette being so universally flattering, we just can’t blame them. Celine’s Metal Aviator and Navigator revisit the classic styles and turn the once strictly utilitarian design runway-appropriate. The exquisite Celine signature is engraved on the top bar to convey a subtle, modern edge.

This season, RIMOWA expands its horizons from premium luggage to eyewear. RIMOWA Bridge and RIMOWA Rim make the grand debut with an array of varieties to choose from.

Another eyewear brand to look out for is TRESBIND . Co-founded by Puyi and Japanese designer Eque.M, TRESBIND is synonymous with top-notch design, craftsmanship, and functionality. P.O.P, the round-design and thin titanium silhouette, is perfect for softening prominent cheekbones while the vivid color palette brightens up the look and flatters any skin tones.
To sharpen your features, go with angular designs with clean lines.
Another label housed by Puyi, xVESSEL is here to please those with fuller cheeks and softer curves. The bold square frames define CHILLED , a pair that boasts a classic glossy black frame with stylish gray lenses to scream total geek-chic. The design inspiration evolves around creator Van Ness Wu’s exploration of the “Seventh Dimension” and mysticism.
