Sarah Guirguis The wait is finally over – it’s summertime! And nothing screams summer quite like fancy shades, an enormous beach hat and a colourful drink in hand. Like clockwork, you know we need to be talking about the latest eyewear trends this season. So without further ado, here are our favorite pieces by Vogue, Miu Miu and Prada.
Vogue
As we anticipate a new season with refreshed hope, Vogue Eyewear released its spring/summer 2021 collection with playful, cheerful vibes, while, of course, never doubling down on the glam factor. Offering every contemporary design imaginable for any style preferences, you will find everything from see-through tones, bold shapes and oversized squares to vivid patterns, pastel shades, minimal metal frames and elegant evergreen designs.
Each design is created in such a way that you can add an original, unconventional twist to any outfit you decide to go for. The feminine cat eye will never fail to turn heads your way. New to the table is the touch texture and eccentric beveled brow; whichever color you opt for, this look will give you a dramatic trendy edge. Available in black and heritage Havana options, this style is easily our favorite.
Miu Miu
Embodying independent flair, Miu Miu has represented Miuccia Prada’s vision since 1993. Until today, the brand represents passion, modernity and allure. For the spring/summer 2021 eyewear collection, vintage style is fused with unique frame manufacturing techniques. What makes this collection stand out is the fact that you can switch out the charms on the temples for an edgy look. The shapes available include a cat, a swallow and the iconic Miu Miu crystal logo.
Offering a romantic look, the ‘La Mondaine’ line has new metal sunglasses – exactly what you want to flaunt this summer. There are also wavy profiles with very chic, diamond-like metal construction to outline the temples and huge rounded frames. The ‘Miu Miu Cathédral’ line is also out, introducing a rather fresh concept, where precious enamel is applied on the lateral lens profiles and the frame.
Prada
Everyone knows Prada means nothing less than a sophisticated, feminine aesthetic. The brand has always exuded a spirit of creativity and originality, merged with iconic artisan traditions. For its spring/summer 2021 collection, Prada Eyewear merged emblematic aspects of the brand with modern design to present a fresh, harmonious theme.
The ‘Prada Scultoreo’ line features a reinterpretation of Prada’s iconic triangle logo, combined with three-dimensional frames and ultra-contemporary profiles. The ‘Prada Cinéma’ line is upgraded to a new look and feel, where geometric metal frames are offered in a variety of feminine styles. Finally, the ‘Prada Duple’ line made its comeback with bold metal construction and original pop enameled inserts to emphasize the delicate details on the front.
