Hexagonal sunglasses to style this summer season

Hexagonal sunglasses are back. Eyewear has strayed recently from its usual confines of round, oval, or square styles thanks to celebrities and style icons. With 70s styles and other retro shapes finally getting the attention they deserve, it’s no surprise that the hexagonal frames popular during the 1940s are enjoying a return to the limelight too. Our desire to relive the golden days of fashion has earned geometric frames a place on the podium of the hottest glasses trends this summer.

Hexagonal sunglasses history

Hexagonal frames enjoyed their peak in the 1940s when variety in lens shapes grew and adapted. Adventurous rounded frames, narrow-bottomed glasses, and angular octagonal and hexagonal shapes became coveted frame shapes.  

Quirky, fun, and different, the hexagon sunglasses trend has pushed standard-shaped lenses aside to become the must-have sunglasses for the summer.
