Turns out, like with everything else, size matters even with your sunglasses!

Move over those normal-sized aviators and wayfarers – it’s shield sunglasses that are catching everyone’s eye. They’re big, bold and so not boring. The idea is to wear sunglasses that cover as big as much of your face as possible.

Every celebrity worth their salt is wearing them. Many brands have sent down models on the runway rocking their sunglasses in metallic shades with gadget-like and futuristic details.

Obviously, there are many benefits to these kinds of sunglasses. Great for when you’ve pulled an all-nighter and even better when you want to avoid making eye contact with someone. Other than simply being a great shield against the sun's harmful UV rays, shield sunglasses also make you look mysterious and stylish, making it easier to block out parts you don’t wish to see.

Choose to pair these with your blazer or simply when you are getting a tan under the Sun. They work when you’re in the city or travelling somewhere. With outfits both Indian as well as western. We believe that there's an oversized frame to suit every face!
