It's the shapes of the sunglasses that make the difference in this SS 2025

Summer eyewear is a mix of large sunglasses and very light frames, oval lenses and jewel details: who do they suit?

There is very little left to overcome the winter season and, fashion-wise, even less to trigger the switch. A pair of sunglasses makes a woman happier if she is in spring summer mode. That's why we have selected some of the shapes of glasses that will be trendy in the next spring summer 2025 : understanding who they look good on is very easy. The next eyewear silhouettes play with hyperboles where sunglasses as large as masks and XL lenses of 70s origin compete with the mini sizes of sunglasses reduced to a minimum by ultra-light metal frames, sometimes enriched with crystals, sometimes equipped with mirrored lenses. Maximum pleasure instead for the nostalgic among cat-eye sunglasses and oval sunglasses in thick acetate and tortoiseshell with gold inserts like in the 90s. Now it's just a question of matching our faces and the shapes of the glasses.

There's no point in pretending not to notice: large sunglasses and eyeglasses are back. The first place on the podium goes to the masks and the sinuous shapes of the 70s, curvilinear and a little descending. Who do large glasses suit? Those with a regular oval shape and above all a face wide enough to be able to keep up with the maxi proportions of the frames. Two models in our list of choices are the masks of Alaïa, where iconic bustiers created by the designer inspire the expanded volumes of the acetate sunglasses (also in white) decorated with laser-engraved lettering and finished in enamel on the temples; and the Colonel by Balmain Eyewear, from oversized frame rimless with engraved side shields and connected by rivets with the B mark.

Cat-eye sunglasses are a real journey, with which it is easy to cite the glorious past of the 50s with a clear mischievous undertone. The eyewear trend for spring summer 2025 sees these bold and geometric shapes at the center of a rewriting of the female face. From Giambattista Valli who proposed them on a transparent acetate frame and flaming red lenses, we move on to the cartoon models by Marc Jacobs and the essential ones with just the right amount of lenses. Who do cat-eye sunglasses suit? Those with a round face and defined cheekbones.

It is impossible to resist the temptation to show off a pair of sunglasses also designed for nighttime performance. These are small masterpieces where the wealth of details plays the role of a special effects technician. We saw them sparkle in the Fendi spring summer 2025 show, a collection celebrating the brand's 100th anniversary, we will also love them very much in the flashy Swarovski version and in the futuristic Gentle Monster version, here interpreted by the Japanese actress Sena Nakajima, in an interpretation between reality and dreamscape.

Once upon a time there were oval women's sunglasses in dark acetate, perhaps tortoiseshell, with gold inserts on the temples. Well, for spring summer 2025 they are back more beautiful and glossy than ever. We are talking about oval sunglasses, frames that look good on those with a long face and need to contain the proportions with balance and sobriety. Sunglasses healthy bearers of a certain dose of mystery able to work with almost everything else in our wardrobe. We remember them and we admired them in the 90's on Carolyn Bessette , we find them today in the BOSS fashion show and in the re-editions of Calvin Klein Eyewear with Vittoria Ceretti in Acetate Renew and in the more full-bodied ones of Versace Eyewear with Sabrina Carpenter.

Thin and sharp, enveloping and inscrutable, the latest models of women's sunglasses in trend for this spring summer 2025 are the extra small ones. Thin and light frames , reduced to the bare metal, on which to graft a pair of equally shielding and impenetrable lenses. The effect is that of Neo in Matrix with the legendary ultra light lenses-only glasses by Silhouette. But let's come to 2025 where even Acne Studios offers small sunglasses for a secret agent of the future. Then there are also the Sardines by Bottega Veneta and the round sunglasses Valentino by Alessandro Michele ultra light, with an Arabian allure complete with golden medals.
