White sunglasses are often associated with either the Mod styles of the late 1960’s or the Muscle Beach pop versions of the 1980’s. But now they are back, and refuse to be pigeonholed into one singular decade. No longer reserved for your costume closet, brands like Loewe have embraced the color wholeheartedly and modernized the aesthetic with whimsical frame shapes and decorative temples. Sporty brands like Moncler debuted smart chic, futuristic styles that seamlessly transition from South Beach to the Swiss Alps. Even New Orleans-based Krewe is in on the trend serving up creamy off-white styles for the fashionable city dweller. So, like it or not, the milky shaded styles are here to stay and command respect. Maybe they will even secure a permanent place in your closet- not just the costume one.
