How do I choose a trending frame for my face and wardrobe?

Choose a frame that contrasts with your face shape and suits what you wear most. Angular and square outlines balance a rounder face, while round and cat eye shapes soften sharper features. Features count as much as face shape, so try a frame against your brow line and coloring, not only the outline of your face. Our guide to choosing sunglasses that match your style goes deeper.

Which sunglasses trends last the longest?

Shapes with a long history, such as aviators, cat eyes and round frames, last longer than color-led trends. Before buying, check the fit across the bridge and temples, the lens color, and whether the geometric or oversized outline suits what you already wear.

Do trending sunglasses come polarized?

Yes, on select colorways. LEVEL UP REMIXED offers a matte black and smoke polarized version, and SOUNDCHECK offers black and apricot and matte black and black polarized versions. The color name states when a pair is polarized.

Oversized frames, reimagined cat eyes and metal aviators lead the sunglasses trends for 2026. Byrdie reports that oversized silhouettes dominated the spring 2026 runways, and that designers are modernizing the cat-eye shape through colorful frames and hardware, while classic aviators are being refreshed with modern finishes such as wire frames. QUAY draws on the same silhouettes, from oversized sunglasses with a bold frame to geometric aviator sunglasses and cat eyes with tall arms, so this page of trending eyewear stays close to what is being worn.

Trendy sunglasses move faster than evergreen classics, so this lineup follows silhouette and color rather than one hero pair. Round sunglasses and narrow rectangle frames sit beside the statement silhouettes for a lighter, more minimal take, and geometric shapes with sharper angles, such as the beveled metal frames on EN ROUTE, bring a futuristic edge to the mix. Popular sunglasses that outlast a single season, like those in our bestsellers, belong to the same family of shapes, only worn with a quieter palette.
