Particular emphasis was placed on sports style. In the trend, points borrowed from divers and skiers. Fans of futuristic design will like models in the format of 3D technology. We offer you to plunge into the fashion world of the near future and explore the 20 main trends of spring-summer 2019.
Cat’s eye
Glasses with rounded bottom lenses and elongated outer corners are again experiencing their peak of popularity. Unlike the “cat’s eyes” from previous seasons, the new models have slightly changed. Trending retro and futurism. The most fashionable option – glasses in a wide plastic frame with translucent lenses.
The frame can be colored or classic black. For example, Kenzo fashion house designers offered their vision of a “cat” trend – futuristic glasses with colored lenses that go beyond the frames.
Geometric shapes
Collections of fashionable sunglasses are highly geometric. Now the trend is rectangular glasses in a wide frame. Role Model – Off-White and Self Portrait Models.
But the “geometric symphony” does not end on the rectangles. Glasses from Saint Laurent is a variation on the theme of everyone’s favorite tishade. Only instead of perfectly round lenses in the frame clear lines of rhombuses and triangles flaunt.
Butterflies
Light and feminine “butterflies” do not lose relevance. And now they really resemble a beautiful winged insect. The lenses of the glasses from Marques’Almeida, Coach, Valentino and Prada accurately repeat the silhouette of the butterfly wings..
Designers Michael Kors gave more stringent outlines to butterfly glasses. Their model follows a fashionable futuristic trend..
Futuristic frames
Have you ever imagined what the glasses of the future will look like? But designers are already trying to get ahead of tomorrow. Futuristic elements are increasingly appearing in their collections. Trendy glasses for the spring-summer season 2019 are a plastic frame in the form of glasses for watching movies in 3D-format and darkened plastic lenses. It was such futuristic models that flashed at the shows of Gucci, Marni and Guy Laroche.
The designers of the Kenzo fashion house saw the fashion trend in their own way. They beat the topic of Trinity glasses, but added an unusual detail – a mono bridge connecting the top of the rim and the temple.
Double and cast bridge
The bridge frame of the two jumpers is a trend of past seasons, called the “monobrow”. He successfully entered the spring-summer season of 2019. Proof of this – glasses from Monse, Self Portrait, Tory Burch. As you can see, the models of such sunglasses can be different: from ultra-modern rectangular frames to retro models from the 60s – round “dragonflies”.
“Monobrow” consists not only of two thin jumpers, but can take the form of a solid cast line. This option was found in Roberto Cavalli and Max Mara.
Glasses without a bridge
In contrast to the doubled or molded points “monobrow” appeared models in which the bridge on the bridge of the nose is completely absent. Lenses stay on top of the thin jumper. Similar models create the effect of weightlessness. Round lenses of translucent colored glass reinforce the impression of lightness, as in Emporio Armani models.
Colored plastic
Glasses from multi-colored plastic seem to be firmly established in the fashion world. Collections of fashion accessories this season, and this time could not do without sunglasses made of plastic in various shades. The color of lenses and frames can be bright and even acidic, as in the Versace, Each x Other, Max Mara models..
But there are more restrained shades. An example is Asai’s creative gradient oversize. No less original design was developed by the fashion house Acne Studios. Their glasses were cut from a piece of coarse colored plastic and fixed with staples. It seems that they were made in haste from improvised means.
Logo frame
Decorating trend accessories with your own logo is not a new idea. But in the spring-summer 2019 season, the trend is gaining momentum. Following fashionable bags with logo prints, glasses with brand names appeared. The idea is embodied in different ways. Kenzo and Burberry logo flaunts in the form of letters on the arms.
Designers Dolce & Gabbana decided not to be shy and released sunglasses with lenses in the form of capital letters of the brand name. They also offered to decorate the glasses with the Italian greeting Ciao.
Wifarera
The demand for wifarera glasses has not subsided in the United States since the mid-20th century. They gained special popularity after the release of the cult film “Breakfast at Tiffany’s”. Starring Audrey Hepburn appeared on screens in elegant and stylish wifarers.
Many celebrities prefer this particular model of glasses. Among them are Katy Perry, Tom Cruise, Bruce Willis and many others. The peculiarity of wifarers is a plastic or horn frame and the shape of the lenses is in the form of a trapezoid, which expands upward. The color of the lenses can be as classic black as in Céline models or color as in Boss and Tibi accessory collections.
“Polka dot” and leopard prints
“Polka dot” is print # 1 in the spring-summer season of 2019. The romantic and feminine drawing of “Polka dot” has inspired designers around the world so much that this print appeared even on the frame of glasses. Karl Lagerfeld showed particular affection for the drawing as part of the Fendi collection. He combined at once three fashion trends in one model of glasses: the “cat’s eye” model, the “monobrow” shape and the “Polka dot” print. Wearing such glasses, try not to overload the image with other details or prints. Best of all, such “funny” glasses are suitable for plain clothes in casual style..
The second most popular print among fashion glasses for the warm season of 2019 was the leopard print. But unlike past collections, he adorns not “cat’s eyes”, but unusual futuristic frames. An example of vibrant futurism can be found in the Marni collection..
Sport style
Femininity and sport are the two most relevant trends today. Designers Kenzo and Calvin Klein tried to combine them together. So another stylish trend appeared – glasses with a light sporting hue. Models like sports equipment for skiers, divers, skaters or cyclists are at their peak today..
The main thing is to skillfully use them in your image. Kenzo Brand Combines Golf Sunglasses with Floral or Polka Dot Print.
Trinity
Glasses from the movie “The Matrix” are not practical. The lens area is too small and the sun protection is ineffective. But who thinks about convenience when it comes to an incredibly stylish look? This is probably why narrow, pointed “trinity” glasses stay in top trend accessories for a couple of seasons in a row.
In the spring-summer season of 2019, color trinity with transparent lenses will be in fashion. And now it’s customary to wear them with casual clothes in the most feminine performance.
Safety goggles
Working style affects fashion every day more and more. In clothes, it is expressed in an abundance of trending overalls, patch pockets, flaps, rough finishing lines. In the fashion for glasses, the working trend proved no less bright. Shield points are becoming increasingly relevant. In the original, they are used to protect the eyes during operation..
In the fashion world, they, of course, lose their functionality. But they get style. For example, Miu Miu and Asai goggles have gradient glasses and the design of large stones. And the Tod’s collection presents a whole series of stylized mask glasses: with color transitions, a mirror surface and a wicker frame in ethnic style.
“Dragonfly”
Round dragonfly glasses are as relevant as last season. The most famous admirer of this model is Jacqueline Kennedy. Largely due to its delicate and impeccable taste, dragonflies became so popular in the 60s.
Unlike the original version, modern “dragonflies” are not edged by a massive horn frame. Designers Kate Spade and Balenciaga redefined the weighty concept. Now the frame has become as light as possible. Most often, it is made of thin transparent plastic.
Mirror surface
See everyone, but do not show your gaze. Full conspiracy is provided by mirrored sunglasses. And most importantly – they look stylish and are in the top of the most current trends in the spring-summer of 2019. Several brands presented fashionable variations on the theme of “mirror” aviator glasses at once.
At Chanel, aviators practically did not go beyond the limits of the classical model. Unless they became a little square, having lost the original teardrop shape. Tod’s aviators, on the other hand, have become rounder and have lost the jumper. Glasses from Rick Owens are huge oversize with a mirror surface.
And designers of fashion houses Etro and Dolce & Gabbana decided to experiment not on the form, but on the “mirror” itself. As a result, interesting patterns and unusual effects in the form of muddy glasses appeared on the glasses..
Cut frame
Glasses in which the frame does not completely cover the lens are the trend of the spring-summer season 2019. The framing is cut off with a sharp knife, sometimes together with the lens. Cut-off futuristic 3D glasses adorn models by Guy Laroche.
The designers of Rejina Pyo went the same way. For their model, they chose a fashionable cat-eye frame. In Emporio Armani glasses, the thin frame looks holistic. But the lenses of the round glasses are “cropped” by a straight line from the bottom.
Color frame
It is difficult to imagine spring and summer fashion without bright colors. In the trend, plastic frames of the most juicy shades. Lemon, coral, lilac, orange – this is only part of the palette that was used in glasses from Off-White, Salvatore Ferragamo, Versace and other brands.
The fashion trend includes models with bright prints. For example, glasses from Moschino are made in the style of pop art and complement the mono image in the spirit of modern art. In colored glasses, the frame and lenses can match in hue. But there are options when the colors are radically different. In Versace’s stylish glasses, the blue lenses contrast with the orange frame. Such a “special effect” draws attention to the eyes, makes them more expressive.
Oversize Points
In oversize, almost nothing has changed. The trend is glasses of huge dimensions, covering not only the eyes, but also the cheekbones, eyebrows. Among the most relevant models are “dragonflies” from Burberry, “butterflies” from Prada and variations on a sports theme from Christian Dior and Gucci.
Why do oversize glasses stay in trend for so long? Firstly, they give a trendy image. Secondly, they can change for the better the proportions of the face, especially if it is large. But there is also a practical side to the issue – oversize completely shuts eyes from the bright sun. Unlike miniature trinity or small round tishades, large-sized lenses are able to give complete protection to the eyes even on the most scorching sunny day.
Fantasy glasses
Glasses of original shapes and designs stand out from the overall picture. By the spring-summer season 2019, a large number of non-standard solutions have been proposed. Balenciaga brand introduced heart-shaped glasses, while Burberry created lenses in the form of rounded triangles. But with such a model you need to be careful. The lenses point down and create a slightly sad look..
This is not the case with The Blonds sunglasses. Their shiny crescent-shaped lenses are pointing high up and speak of the decisive nature of their mistress. The functionality of such glasses is not necessary. Image is important here, not practicality..
Decor
This is not to say that decor dominated fashion shows. But if he was, then he was distinguished by massiveness and catchiness. Rhinestone fringe, colored stones, metal spikes, pea plastic decor are the main techniques that designers used to decorate trend points for the warm season of 2019.
Trendy sunglasses for the spring-summer 2019 season will help you create an image for every day or for publication on a special occasion. A variety of models allows you to choose glasses for any look: business or casual, strict or free, for leisure or work. There was a place in fashion collections and outrageous options. The main thing is to choose the right glasses according to the shape of the face and your style. And then you have a trendy image.
