Whether you’re wearing clothes that scream high fashion or an outfit that’s more on the casual and comfortable side, you can never go wrong with a pair of designer sunglasses. Luxury accessories like sunglasses add a touch of style and opulence to your aesthetics and are a great way to cap off a look. Just take a look at my previous blog post, which showcased my outfit composed of a pink floral skirt, a crystal top, and a Saint Laurent bag. The finishing touch? The classic Ray-Ban Aviator sunglasses for an added layer of class and sophistication.
A report on the sales of luxury brands published by The Guardian shows that luxury goods have enjoyed a significant boom in the United Kingdom, with young adults fuelling the growth of brands like Burberry and Dior. This marketing success has allowed sunglasses from these designer brands to become a more popular staple among a wider audience. So, here’s what makes luxury sunglasses so iconic and timeless and why they add the perfect finishing touch to your outfits:
Why luxury sunglasses?
With notable brands like Ray-Ban, Prada, and Versace, high-end designer sunglasses elevate the style and add luxury to any outfit, and they have also become a symbol of prestige. Although more expensive than accessories from fast fashion brands, luxury sunglasses are built from top-quality materials like titanium, acetate, and other premium metals that guarantee longevity, durability, and comfort while staying true to their brands’ distinctive qualities. You can purchase luxury sunglasses from online retailers extremely easily, including classic and luxurious designs such as Versace’s VE4459, Prada’s PR 19ZS, or the BE4403 from Burberry. Retailer Sunglass Hut also makes returns and exchanges easy and convenient in case you change your mind about your purchase. I’ve ordered from them many times before!
Below are a few more reasons why luxury sunglasses are the perfect accessory for your outfits:
Added sophistication
When you sport a pair of luxury sunglasses, especially from well-known designer brands, you convey a sense of sophistication that tells other people that you know a thing or two about fashion and styling. Take, for example, American model Kendall Jenner, who was spotted wearing neutral colours yet still looked regal and sophisticated thanks to her pair of Le Specs black sunglasses. It doesn’t matter what clothes or colours you are wearing — a pair of designer sunglasses can make it look like you’re fresh off the runway. I always find myself reaching for them in summer as they really do complete an outfit.
Timeless and classic styles
Unlike some fashion trends that come and go, luxury sunglasses are often distinguished by classic designs that have remained popular for years. One good example is the Ray-Ban Wayfarers which were initially designed in 1952 and remain one of the brand’s most iconic designs to this day. Luxury brands have always been known for pushing the boundaries of fashion and style while still keeping in line with their brand philosophies, so it’s no surprise that their sunglasses incorporate classic yet appealing designs that leave a lasting impression. My personal favourite is their aviator design.
Anti-ageing and sun protection
Luxury sunglasses not only enhance your style — they also protect your eyes and the skin around them. These designer brands are the epitome of fashion meets function, especially with lenses that offer 100% protection from the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays and other harmful light that could damage your vision. Overexposure to UV light can cause premature skin ageing and wrinkles around your eyes, and cheaper brands may not always have the quality materials or UV protection that established ones do. Pairing a good sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 can help protect the skin surrounding the eyes, especially when coupled with oversized frames like Dolce & Gabbana’s DG4438 for maximum sun protection.
Luxury sunglasses add an opulent flair, have chic and timeless designs, and are functional to boot. These qualities make them the perfect option if you’re looking for accessories that can elevate your overall style. What are some of your favourite brands or styles?
