Round Up: 20 Rounded Sunglasses To Rock This Summer
A modern ode to hippie fashion
Round sunglasses, a style that was once associated with the hippies of the ‘60s and ’70s, have been making quite the comeback this season. The once-retro silhouette has gotten a sartorial face-lift, evolving into a style that's more hip than hippie. With a demand for round frames rising, this season’s offerings are much more modern than the wire frames we’re used to seeing on the likes of John Lennon and Janis Joplin.
While rounded frames don’t have a great history of being universally flattering, which is why many people initially shy away from them, today’s styles have advanced and are now available in a variety of sizes, shapes, and silhouettes that will work for almost everyone. From big to small, from floral embellished to thick and colorful, there’s a style out there that will enhance any bone structure.
We rounded up 20 of the coolest pairs available now to give your summer look a modern hippie-inspired update. Click through the gallery below to check out our picks.
