1. Oversized & Playful Frames

Chunky, whimsical eyewear is back with a vengeance. Designs from Burberry and Missoni featured oversized and fun silhouettes. These bold pieces channel a playful energy that's impossible to miss. 

2. Minimalistic Metal & Intricate Wireframes

On the opposite end of the spectrum, minimalism reigns. Sleek metal frames, often rimless or with ultra-thin outlines, offer a refined, elegant look. There's a trend toward "intricate minimalism," emphasizing precision and geometric finesse. Our Silhouette line features full rimless and other minimalist options. 

3. Geometric & Architectural Shapes

Geometric frames—hexagons, strong angles, and sculptural silhouettes—combine structure with style. Look for bold geometry balanced by slim temples, jewel-toned or textured finishes for a modern aesthetic. 

4. Retro Revival: Cat-Eyes, Aviators & Round Frames

Vintage styles continue their resurgence:

• Cat-eye frames return with modern tweaks—elongated designs, metallic accents, bold colors—making them runway-ready staples.

• Aviators and round frames are also trending, offering a nostalgic yet contemporary vibe.

5. Soft Pastels & Clear Acetates

Subtle, soft-toned acetates are in—lavender, dusty rose, mint, baby blue—bringing a romantic, understated touch. Clear and translucent frames are also on the rise for a classic yet modern look.

6. Bold Colors & Statement Frames

For those seeking standout style, vibrant colors and dramatic shapes are key. Brands like Etnia Barcelona and Vera Bradley offer plenty of appeal in this style.

7. Double Bridges & Strong Top Bars

Aviator-style double bridges and bold top bars lend structure and authority to frames. These architectural elements are especially prominent in masculine and sculptural styles.

8. Sustainability & EcoConscious Frames

Eco-friendly materials and sustainable production are increasingly important. Expect designs incorporating recycled acetate, sustainable materials, and brands touting environmental responsibility. Our Eco line from Modo is carbon negative, meaning No CO2 emissions.
