Catching Rays: Spring 2017 Sunglasses Trends
Whether you’re shielding the sun’s rays or just need a quick cover up before dabbing some concealer under your eyes, sunglasses are always the styling go-to. This season the runways showed a shift to bold and unabashed—frames were blown up in size at Fendi, and rims were forgone altogether at Illesteva. When it comes to all-out glamour, the answer is always Gucci; the Italian label’s latest eyewear lineup shows no sings of slowing down with oversized frames, ornate embellishments and wild proportions. Looking for your summer sunglasses fix? We have you covered with our top edit of the season’s most covetable shades.
