Haven’t you heard? The 70s are back (again)! Oversized aviator frames with light-coloured lenses—yellow, orange, and light blue are the ones to go for—are all the rage this year. We’re absolutely loving Tom Ford’s big, bold designs.

Trend #6: Metal frames and "Bayonetta glasses"
Bella Hadid, Gabbriette, and Doja Cat said it first: nerds are hot in 2025, and so are thin, metal frames. An elevated take on the so-called “Bayonetta glasses” trend, barely-there metal frames are minimal while maintaining a proportioned look, Y2K yet ultra-modern.
