Scroll through Instagram and you’ll see a variety of chic specs on the likes of Bella Hadid and Doja Cat. Whether it’s dubbed “hot nerd,” “office siren,” or “Bayonetta glasses,” named after the titular character of the popular Japanese video game, it’s official – geek chic is back. Prescription glasses are seeing a newfound resurgence, with a focus on small rectangular frames.
Now that fashion month has wrapped up, we are filled with new runway images to help inspire new fashion ideas. In the realm of sunglasses, several of 2023’s biggest trends are continuing strongly, with just a touch of something new.
In general, 2024 sunglass trends are a move towards dramatic shapes that reference classic shapes and style—think cat eyes with a new angular take or aviator frames better than ever before. These renewed sensibilities will make all of 2024’s hottest trends feel familiar but with a fresh new perspective.
While tortoiseshell frames have been popular since the 1920s, we are beginning to see a softer version of the multi-color pattern incorporated into frames as of late.
If you’ve always loved the timelessness of a tortoiseshell frame but thought they were too dark or too bold, this new colorway is just for you. Blonde tortoiseshell glasses have become popular as the lighter, brighter cousin to the classic brown and black speckled shades.
While tortoiseshell is seen as a classic style, popularized almost 100 years ago, there are plenty of other ways to incorporate pattern play into your eyeglasses.
Designers have been artistically expanding on this trend, trying out different textures, patterns, and prints on acetate frames. From edgy graffiti to Burberry plaid, these printed eyeglass frames offer a fun and unexpected look. And patterned eyeglasses aren’t just for those wanting a bold look. Subdued hues and subtle colors offer a unique take on your next pair of frames.
