Sunglasses – Best of 2015
Beatrice Lessi
You are never fully dressed until you wear a pair of great shades – at least in summer, or if you are Italian, like me. Luckily sunglasses are available in every range of price (and all over Switzerland in the VISILAB stores) and in so many different models that one can always find a suitable type for any outfit or need. So what are the top trends for Summer? From classic to flirty or nerdy, we have grouped the most popular sunglasses trends around.
Dior So Real
In the original version or in other’s brands variations, the Dior So Real model has been seen on celebrities and fashionistas allover the world. Beautiful and versatile.

Mirrored
Polarised, colorful, great to draw attention: the new polarised lenses are extremely fashionable and also a great protection for your eyes.

Aviators
The original Ray-Ban never went out of fashion and inspired all sort of similar models. Classic aviators suit practically everybody.

Do these nerdy glasses make you look intelligent? Or trendy? Whatever your answer, try them on: their shape flatters almost every face and this style of glasses is great for indoors and outdoors.

Light and fresh, a clear frame is particularly versatile – good with any style of lens.
