Sunglasses with geometric designs are suddenly everywhere.

Lately, it feels like fashion is becoming fun again. Brands have increasingly stopped playing it safe with silhouettes and colors and are branching into new territory. One of the best examples of this innovation is the latest sunglasses. Oversized, eccentric frames, broad temples, and polished, ultra-stylish finishes are all the rage now.&nbsp;
For instance, just look at the recent <a href="https://www.gentlemonster.com/us/shop/item/mugler-spiral01m01/11G9Y2FLR5YP5">Gentle Monster x Mugler collaboration</a>, starring Colin Jones and Georgia Palmer. Inspired by Mugler&rsquo;s creature-themed 1997 &ldquo;Les Insectes&rdquo; haute couture collection, the collection features two chic silhouettes with Mugler&rsquo;s trademark spiral detail and exaggerated frames. The sunglasses capture the theatrical and avant-garde visual work of <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/art/helmut-newton-rare-photographs-gianni-versace-andy-warhol">Helmut Newtown</a> and <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/how-thierry-mugler-empowered-women-through-his-outlandish-designs">Manfred Thierry Mugler</a> to create dynamic shapes and modern elegance. &nbsp;
But these fashion houses are not alone. From <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion-week/yves-saint-laurent-fall-winter-2024">Saint Laurent&rsquo;s</a> butterfly frame silhouette to <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/gucci-fall-winter-2024-mfw-show-runway-images">Gucci's</a> cat-eye style, sunglasses are cooler than ever right now. Below, see how several other brands are experimenting with their shades.&nbsp;
