Bright autumnal colours

The vivid reds, oranges and yellows are what makes autumn stand out among the seasons. Add a bright glow to your wardrobe with a vibrant and colourful pair of glasses. Bold-coloured frames are very on-trend in 2024 and are a great way to liven up your cosy autumn knitwear. Match your wardrobe to the colour of the season this year!

The metal-acetate love affair

Why go for just metal or acetate when you can have the best of both worlds? Metal frames have a sleek and refined style while acetate designs are fun and contemporary. Put them together and you get a trendy pair of frames with a sophisticated edge!

The idea of using more than one material for glasses is not a new concept but it certainly is trendy! The Ray-Ban® Clubmaster™ is a classic example of how you can enjoy a functional and fashionable pair of glasses made of both metal and plastic. The combination of materials creates a bold and eye-catching design that is long-lasting and timeless. Today, designers are experimenting with different shapes and designs, resulting in some unique, funky frames and modern geometric shapes.

Nature-inspired hues

What better time to enjoy nature in all its glory than in autumn? Leafy greens, earthy browns and golden hues inspired by nature as well as dreamy blues themed on winter skies have often been associated with this mesmerising time of year.

According to the Pantone® colour trend report for New York Fashion Week, Pantone Colour Institute experts, say ‘colours for NYFW Autumn/Winter 2024/2025 are infused with an inherent richness and earthiness that highlights our deeper connection to nature.’

A classic fashion revival from the 90s – when everyone from Kate Moss to Scary Spice was wearing it – versatile leopard print can add a lively and confident edge to your professional attire. Achieve a sense of quiet luxury with your style by pairing your playful leopard print glasses with darker and subtler shades like black, dark green, beige and subtle pastels. Wear your bold leopard print glasses with a white blouse or shirt and navy blazer for a powerful and stylish look at the office. Or, be inspired by the recent ‘mob wife’ aesthetic trending on TikTok. This fierce and fashionable trend is all about creating a lavish look. Pair your leopard print accessories with chunky gold jewellery and black leather to complete the aesthetic.

Going back to black

An old favourite, black frames never fail to add a touch of sophistication to any outfit. Suited to every skin tone, hair and eye colour, black glasses are versatile and a must-have accessory for everyone regardless of the time of the year.

Midnight magic

The nights are drawing in and as we snuggle up at home after a busy day, we can truly begin to appreciate the natural beauty of the evenings. This is where midnight-themed colours really set the tone for autumn wear and create a whimsical vibe. Dark plum purples and dreamy blues are highly fashionable in 2024 and will naturally add warmth to your complexion.
