Trend 2016: time to dare
“Daring” is the keyword for spring 2016.The tried and true models, such as the aviator, wayfarer and cat-eye are still in circulation, but the main spring trends call for extreme choices. The fashion shows for the 2016 spring collections were eclectic and excessive, and the same can be said for eyewear fashion that will follow four main directions.Eccentric shapes: large and voluminous, the protagonists of the season are frames and glasses that cover the face and offer the wearer sun protection and that "meta-factor". Silhouettes that attract the attention: being noticed is a must, as sunglasses are a real manifestation of individual style. Jewelled: eyewear has become jewellery to adorn the face with liberal use of sequins, pearls, crystals and mother of pearl on the frames. In fact, the kitsch factor is alive and kicking. Plastic shapes: extreme and abstract. Glasses that say: look at me!
