As the New York Fashion Week wraps, we have begun to see trends unfolding. With accessories like sunglasses, trends often act as overarching multi-season movements.

We can see these styles fine-tuning as the shows continue from city to city. Accessories trends reflect the larger movement of the clothes. If minimalism is happening in the apparel industry, we can expect to see a round of minimalist glasses trends come our way as well.

As the Spring/Summer ‘25 shows unfold, it’s clear next year will be all about balancing personal style with real-world practicality. Expect glasses that rely heavily on the classics but with refined updates rather than never-before-seen reinventions.

Expect to see a resurgence of the ‘90s with thin, sleek sunglasses with silhouettes that barely cover the eyes. Racer, sports-inspired utility sunglasses are still in fast effect, combining metal frames with tinted reflective lenses and frameless styles. On the other end of the spectrum, chunky, playful, and oversized frames are still wildly popular showing at the likes of Prada and Ulla Johnson. Read on for more sartorial inspiration for your 2025 sunglasses game straight from the runways.

The skin can also become dry, swollen, flaky, and may burn or itch. The condition is non-contagious and can vary in severity. Most people are familiar with rosacea of the skin, but they’re less familiar with ocular rosacea.
