6 glasses to dazzle (and so that we don't dazzle us) this summer
The good weather favors the use of this accessory, which goes far beyond its practical side to become a true fashion accessory
BarcelonaWith the arrival of good weather, sunglasses become much more than an accessory to protect your vision. They are an essential complement that defines style, adds personality, and completes any summer look. This season, trends combine classic designs with daring proposals to satisfy all tastes. We have selected five models that stand out for their aesthetics, versatility, and ability to set trends so you can choose the perfect sunglasses to enjoy the summer.
TAG Heuer
The Swiss luxury watch brand TAG Heuer continues to expand its presence in the world of high-end eyewear with the launch of two new collections of sunglasses inspired by the Maison's connection to the world of motorsport. The TAG Heuer Eyewear Jack Heuer and TAG Heuer Golden Age collections explore different stages of the history of motoring while maintaining their commitment to contemporary design. Interchangeable nose pads, adjustable temples, and lightweight construction are their main attractions in terms of ergonomics and the best allies for daily use.
Silhouette
The retro aesthetic with Mediterranean inspiration is once again setting the pace for summer 2026. In this context, the Austrian company Silhouette reinterprets the imagery of the dolce vita with its distinctive hallmark: ultra-light and minimalist design eyewear. It does so with the Iconic Shades collection, a line that has versatility as its ally. Eyewear with clean lines, retro inspiration, and a relaxed attitude that fits any summer wardrobe. Also on the cusp of summer, the Silhouette group has announced that it has completely eliminated the use of natural gas at its Linz plant by electrifying it, which will allow them to save 100 tons of CO₂ annually.
Gods
Universitary Optics & Audiology has launched the first collection of glasses from Gods, formerly known as Fake Gods. For Gods, it represents the entry into a new product category with which it expands its creative universe. University Optics & Audiology consolidates its strategy of incorporating innovative brands capable of connecting with a new generation, Generation Z, and with a fashion forward audience that understands glasses as an expression of their personal style and an authentic fashion accessory. The brand, with accessible prices, has connected with reference figures such as Lamine Yamal and Quevedo, and currently has a flagship store in Barcelona.
DKNY
The brand that globally swept the nineties with its proposals is more current than ever with its sunglasses. Small and minimalist, but not for that reason cold or inexpressive, they are an ideal accessory to give a twist to any basic and carefree summer look. Glasses that give full prominence to the wearer, whether in a pearly or plain frame.
Gigi Studios
The Catalan firm Gigi Studios presented at the beginning of summer the second installment of its Resort Collection campaign, starring Tish Weinstock and photographed by Diana Louise Bartlett. This second presentation focuses on three eyewear models conceived to accompany summer with character, combining defined lines, discreet refinement, and apparently spontaneous yet also very deliberate sophistication. According to the campaign creators, it pursues an idea of evasion: free, bright, and decidedly contemporary. A representation of their eyewear.
Longchamp
The veteran French brand Longchamp has made a strong commitment with its line of sunglasses for this summer. It has managed to bring the boom of large, single-screen sports glasses to a much more glamorous and sophisticated version. Maximum protection against the sun without losing any style. There is a black version and a pink one designed for those who want to go all out with the screen.
