The fashion sphere is obsessed with sunglasses. They're sometimes the last accessory added to an outfit, but sunglasses leave a lasting impact. Gone are the days of faux Ray-Bans roaming the street on every second citizen, designers are now embracing the coveted shades and transforming then into never before worn styles.

As art merges with fashion, more than ever before, designers are employing the elements and principles of design to create groovy glasses that explore colour and shape. Each era has introduced different trends in sunglasses, with the 60's embracing big bold sunnies & the 70's introducing colourful plastic frames. But as we draw closer to 2020, it appears that our current contribution to the development of sunglasses has been the exploration of shape and the heavy influence from post-modern art.
