Already at the heart of trends, this extravagant model spotted on Jane Birkin will be everywhere this summer.
We had almost forgotten her. If it has been discreet in recent days, the summer season is fast approaching – scheduled for June 21, like every year. The opportunity for fashionistas to bring out, from their collection of accessories, an element that we believe is reserved for days when the sun is at its most beautiful: sunglasses. The most radiant star in the galaxy will come out of hiding in the coming weeks, and the most prominent girls will then be able to show off, without restraint, their most beautiful sunglasses. In terms of solar trends, it’s time to look back (as always, in the modosphere). Indeed, to protect our pupils in style, a specific model is emerging this 2026 season.
Inspired by the sunglasses popular in the 60s and 70s, it is intended to be oversized, far from the minimalist silhouettes which have recently reigned supreme in the realm of glasses. Round with a touch of madness expressed in the surface area of its lenses, said model has been seen on the most famous faces of the 7th Art: among them, the iconic Brigitte Bardot and Jane Birkin. In the movie The swimming pool (1969), the Franco-British woman wore sunglasses with huge round lenses, with frames in brown shades.
Rebelote in 2026, this style of sunglasses is once again on every shelf. A trend confirmed in particular by our colleagues at Who What Wear UK. The culprit of this thunderous comeback? The house Celineamong others. Its “Disc CL40345I” model, sold at a price of 420 euros, can now be found on the noses of all fashionable girls: @christietyler, @deborabrosa, @josefinehj.
But other very inspired models, at much more accessible prices, can also be found at Jimmy Fairly, Alain Afflelou (Carla model) or Kris (Audrey light tortoiseshell model). Something to delight all budgets. So it’s up to you.
