The 70's aka my favourite fashion era. So imagine how happy I was when this trend crossed over into eyewear for S/S 20 (which if you didn't know, i'm an avid collector of).
Aviators - The humble aviator is undeniably the most globally recognised eyewear shape and for S/S 20 this style came in upscaled proportions. Kate Spade, Alberta Ferretti and Zimmermann took the lead with oversized acetate frame aviators in honey torts and soft gradient lenses. Keeping proceedings super classic, French powerhouse Celine delivered one of the most commercial styles of the season - a core shape flat lens aviator. Minimalist wire frames are also a key eyewear trend for S/S 20, so if you invest in one designer frame this season, make it this one!

Oversized Retro Frames - Unashamedly 70's in their styling, oversized tortoiseshell frames were widely seen on the runway. They come in an array of different shapes, with variations of: round, square and butterfly frames. As with the aviators, soft tinted lenses provide an easy fashion update for 2020. Key Designers: Fendi, Victoria Beckham, Courreges, Alberta Ferretti
70's icon references: Bianca Jagger, Jane Birkin.
Navigators - Another classic 70's frame, for S/S 20 this style was modernised by the likes of Givenchy with an oversized frame and two-tone sunset tinted lens.
