The best sunglasses of 2023 is all about bold and playful designs. So, picture oversized frames, tinted lenses, and colourful frames.

Another big trend this year is 70s-style shades. Basically retro frames like tortoiseshell sunglasses and square oversized frames. They also offer a subtle way to add a dramatic flair to your summer wardrobe without going overboard.

A wave of Y2K nostalgia also has a chokehold on 2023, especially futuristic fashion. Pinterest reports a 70% increase in searches for “futuristic glasses”, with racer frames expected to be a major trend.
