Sunglasses - the most favorite accessory dandies and ladies. With their help, you can achieve almost the impossible - to draw everyone's attention to remain incognito. You want to have mistaken for a celebrity? Select a cool sunglasses and wear them even when they are completely useless - such as indoors.
In addition, sunglasses act as a fashion accessory - they will make your summer a unique way, even if it only consists of T-shirts and shorts, which limit the space of self-expression.
In fact, the "wardrobe" of sunglasses - similar to the "wardrobe" of shoes, handbags and watches - are becoming more common and popular, indicating a tendency for the rule of accessories to create the image. Now pick up clothes for a stylish accessory, and not vice versa.
But how can such a tiny object like a pair of glasses, to radically change the image? What can you say about the new trends in fashion sunglasses?
Color accents on the face can change some almost beyond recognition. Points of the same shape, differing only in the color of frames (for example, red or black rim), look on your face quite differently.
"Points can be rightfully called the jewelry for the face," - says fashion designer James Mischka. This season, he and partner Mark Badgley released the first collection of sunglasses Badgley Mischka.
"We are known for their jewelry and decorative trim. These principles we use when creating frames. We have applied the latest technology, but not neglected, and good old crystals Swarovski, inlaid with mother of pearl laser, beads.
In the collection there is even a model with feathers inlaid in the plastic - it was a real technological challenge, "- says Mischka.
"Other notable parts of sunglasses this season - no frames, metal studs, an interesting" lining "to the inside of the arches, as well as original patterns on their outer side," - says Peggy Fries, senior marketing manager for Luxottica, the manufacturer of exclusive glasses Donna Karan, Ray-Ban, Dolce & Gabbana, and its own brand Vogue.
According to Fries, to describe the current trends of the season most appropriate expressions of "chic idiots" and "retro." However, it is less popular and glasses with carefully chosen, subtle and elegant decorations.
Points, completely studded with rhinestones glittering splashes
or huge logos, visible at a distance of several meters, replaced the modest model with an elaborate arrangement of rhinestones and crystals.
Fries sure that today the market is much more open to experimentation than before. Perhaps this is due to the fact that a comprehensive market research is now does not necessarily go to the store.
"The expansion of the range of sunglasses significant role played and technological progress - in some particularly clever models can be found and built-in MP3-players, and mobile phones, and even the highly sensitive lens" - says Brent Martin, president of Ryders Sunglasses, products which are focused on sports enthusiasts.
"A polarizing filter, absorbing the reflected light is used for a long time - continues Martin. - But now it can be installed directly in the lens, and not to add to it. Thanks to this innovation improves image quality and optics in general. "
"In addition, improved photochromic lenses that alter the transmission of visible light, when it is more or less intense - says Martin, who is also a board member of the American Association of manufacturers of sunglasses (Sunglass Association of America), a non-profit organization serving the protection of the industry.
Such lenses can now be made of polycarbonate, so that they become unbreakable - a very important feature for a sports glasses. Sunglasses - what form you choose? Like jeans, some forms of sunglasses are almost all, and some - only a few.
Choosing the right frame is mainly determined by the shape of the face. "Avoid points, the shape of which follows the contours of your face" - advises Peggy Fries.
A few tips:
Square face: the height and width of the face are about the same, lower and upper points of the face can be arbitrarily connected by straight lines.
- Choose a slightly rounded or curved frames. Oval or round frames visually soften jawline and diamond shape will revive a very serious face.
- The top of the points should be placed high enough to smooth the jaw line failed.
Round face:
- Choose sunglasses with direct or acute rim. Pay attention to the thin metal frame - they distract attention from the sides of the face.
- Visually "slim" frames the face and saturated colors, such as black and tortoiseshell frames.
Triangular: wide forehead, narrow mouth and chin.
- Glasses with a thin rim and vertical lines help visually balance the lower part of the face.
- Points should not be too large and close eyebrows. Do not wear sunglasses with a massive frame, broad bridge to the nose. Avoid bright colors and square shapes.
- The best option for you - round shape glasses or goggles like a pilot.
The narrow oblong: In some ways, this is similar to a square face shape, because the width of the chin and cheeks is almost identical.
- With this task perfectly cope flat glasses. Also, you will approach a rectangular glasses and an oval shape.
- Sunglasses should cover the most central part of the face to smooth excessive length.
Oval face:
On the oval face look great sunglasses virtually any shape, especially oval, rectangular, round and with a frame "Cat's Eye".
