Sunglasses Have Never Been Bigger or Better – Here Are 15 Pairs of XXL Frames I’m Obsessed With

Spring, is that you?

Last Updated on May 11, 2023

From Jackie O’s round sunglasses to Elton John’s XXL frames, oversized sunglasses have been making a fashionable statement for I don’t know how many decades.

Huge shades not only provide sun protection for your eyes, but they can also transform your whole look in an instant. After all, Elton wouldn’t have looked half as dramatic without his.

The oversized trend isn’t just about XXL shapes in 2023. Fashion is also leaning towards bigger and thicker frames, like Loewe’s inflated sunglasses. Sure, the thick block style might not be for everyone, but they’re setting a precedent for sunglasses trends this year.

Other styles of voluminous shades that we saw on the SS23 runway include aviators with tinted frames at Zimmermann and Isabel Marant, visor styles at Stella McCartney and Rick Owens and larger than life round pairs at Vivienne Westwood – so you’re not short of options. The most important thing is to have fun with your shades.
