What do cats, skiing and the noughties have in common? They influence which glasses we now adorn our faces with. 6 sunglasses trends that are setting the tone this year.
1. colourful perspective
From subtle tints to bright shades - sunglasses with transparent, coloured lenses are currently very popular with fashion fans. Retro aviator glasses with light-coloured, tinted lenses dominate street style photos and social media. On the catwalk, for example at Gucci or Versace, bright, monochrome models in eye-catching shades such as red, bright pink or lime green provide exciting colour accents.

2. sharp edges
Cateye sunglasses from the 1950s are a timeless classic. They are currently enjoying particular popularity and are interpreted in a variety of ways. Whether oval or square, narrow or large, with or without a frame - what characterises them is that they taper at the top towards the side. This expressive shape gives the glasses a glamorous look. Rectangular cateyes are also currently the model of choice for colleague Laura and me.

3. futuristic sports cannons
Sunglasses that look somewhere between Tour de France and sci-fi film triggered a hype last year - and it hasn't died down yet. Models that were actually developed for sweat-inducing outdoor activities, or at least look like it, continue to flit down the catwalks. What makes glasses look athletic? Mono lenses and wrap designs that are strongly curved and hug the sides of the face. Both oversized models reminiscent of ski masks and narrow cycling glasses are in vogue.

4. XXL sun protection
Whether it's blazers, bags or skirts - a lot of fashion is currently coming in maxi format. Huge sunglasses are also making a comeback. D-shaped models or retro-look aviators are particularly popular. The big advantage of these extravagant shades is that they also protect your cheeks from the sun. If you're worried that oversized glasses will take up too much of your face, I recommend transparent lenses. They take up less space visually.

5. narrow view
Tiny sunglasses are a bit past their prime. But don't worry if you still prefer smaller lenses. Narrow, rectangular shades are currently conquering the fashion world. They are similarly sleek, but look more grown-up. The angular shape also gives your look a good dose of coolness.

6. dwindling frames
In the past few months, I've typed the words noughties, 2000s or Y2K so often that I'm starting to feel like I've got a crack in my record. The fashion comeback of the decade before last is omnipresent and is of course also noticeable in sunglasses. The nostalgia club strikes in the form of frameless glasses with thin metal temples. Glasses that are only partially rimmed or have a discreet metal frame also embody the iconic 2000s look - and are also pleasantly light.
