From sleek and sculptural cat-eyes to ultra-trendy rimless frames, here are the three sunglasses trends we’ll be trying out this summer:

Modern Cat-Eye

This season, cat-eye sunglasses departed from their retro roots in favor of a more futuristic outlook. Classic pointed silhouettes are reinvented with sculptural-shaped edges, chunky frames, and cool stud embellishments for a modern twist.

Gucci Diamante-Embellished Frameless Cat-Eye Sunglasses $1,054

Prada 55mm Solid Cateye Sunglasses $352

Loewe 50mm Cateye Sunglasses $360

Valentino Cateye Sunglasses $181

Valentino Individual 53mm Studded Cateye Sunglasses $377

Rimless

Y2K is the current era of inspiration, and it wouldn’t be 2000’s excess without glam rimless sunglasses. Matrix-y no-frame styles come in every shape, from teeny tiny lenses to perfectly round silhouettes. Make sure you go for a rose or lavender-shaded lenses to really tap into the trend.

Karen Wazen Luna Sunglasses $145

Retro Rectangle

Retro rectangular frames give this season’s sunnies a chic throwback feel. Thick arms and pop-bright colors strike the perfect balance of old-meets-new in these statement-making styles.
