Luxury Eyewear Trends 2026: Burberry, Michael Kors, Emporio Armani & More
The 2026 campaign visuals from the big luxury houses have landed, and a few directions repeat across brands. Here are the five you will see everywhere this year.
1. Soft cat-eyes and ovals
Michael Kors and Dolce & Gabbana lean into narrow, slightly lifted shapes — flattering on round and oval faces and a natural partner to a pulled-back hairstyle.
2. Heritage check and logo temples
Burberry’s beach story brings back the signature check on temples and lens cloth, while Emporio Armani and Michael Kors keep the logo small and on the temple tip.
3. Translucent and honey acetates
Crystal-clear, honey and grey-tinted acetates replace solid black on optical frames. They photograph light and suit warm skin tones especially well.
4. Sport meets tailoring
Emporio Armani’s EA7 line and Prada Linea Rossa show wraparound and shield sunglasses styled with everyday clothes — performance shapes worn as fashion.
5. Gold-metal minimalism
Thin gold and rose-gold wire frames — round or rectangular — remain the safest luxury optical choice, and the lightest for all-day prescription wear.
Explore these brands under Brands in our menu or browse all eyeglasses. Every optical frame can be fitted with your prescription through Select Lenses.
