Women's sunglasses

Women's sunglasses not only provide our eyes with excellent protection from dangerous UV rays, but also look right on trend. In the summer, sunglasses are as much a part of an outfit as our shoes or handbag. Whether sporty or elegant, there are the perfect sunglasses to suit every taste, style and occasion

Women's sunglasses come in a wide palette of colours, shapes and designs to suit every taste and style. Women's sunglasses should showcase the wearer's personality to perfection. Shapes vary from classic and elegant to minimalist or extravagant designs. Shades with colourful mirrored lenses are just as popular as traditional, black, oversized models and cat-eye designs with black or white frames. Ski goggles and sports glasses are also extremely popular with sporty women.

Women's sunglasses to fit individual face shapes

In addition to personal taste, your face shape also plays a central role in the choice of women's sunglasses. The right design will skilfully flatter the contours of your face:

• Oval: women with oval-shaped faces look great in almost any sunglasses. Angular designs make the face look more sculpted, while round lenses give a softer look.
• Round: women with round faces look especially good in sunglasses with squared lenses. These add contours and have a slimming effect. Asymmetrical and frameless glasses can also look great. Small frames and round lenses don't work quite as well, however.
• Heart-shaped: people with heart-shaped faces have pronounced cheekbones, broad foreheads and small, pointed chins. Women with heart-shaped faces look particularly good in frameless sunglasses. Both oval and round glasses work well here. By contrast, sunglasses with square frames should be avoided as these designs emphasize the width of the wearer's forehead.

• Square: women with square-shaped faces suit sunglasses with oval or round lenses. These have a softening effect. Angular glasses, on the other hand, reinforce angular facial features.

Sporty, casual or elegant – sunglasses in a wide range of options

Women's sunglasses are available in both sporty, casual designs as well as elegant and glamorous styles. The most popular models include:

• Round sunglasses: sunglasses with round lenses look super stylish and look particularly good on women with heart-shaped, square or oval faces.
• Square sunglasses: square sunglasses are perfect for women with round faces. They are available in rectangular, hexagonal or octagonal designs.
• Retro sunglasses: typical retro sunglasses come in cat-eye or butterfly-shaped designs. Retro sunglasses with mirrored lenses and large plastic frames are also popular options.
• Aviator glasses: aviator glasses have a narrow metal frame and teardrop-shaped lenses. They are available in a wide range of shades.
• Wayfarer sunglasses: these designs can be identified by their special lenses in the shape of trapezoids and their plastic frames.
