Sunglasses Are The Star Of Venice Film Festival

Plot twist…

Taylor Russel Venice Film FestivalTaylor Russel Venice Film Festival

Currently underway in Venice, Italy, the 79th Venice International Film Festival has got film and fashion buffs glued to their feeds. Why? Between the seemingly never ending off-screen drama surrounding Olivia Wilde’s Don’t Worry Darling to Timothée Chalamet serving the hottest cold shoulder we’ve seen in forever, the film festival has the internet in a chokehold. 

This year’s lineup sees a slew of Hollywood’s new guard descending the Lido, with everyone from Florence Pugh and Harry Styles to Jodie Turner-Smith, Irina Shayk and Simone Ashley in attendance. Such star power makes for some pretty major style moments – here are the ones we’re loving so far…

Designer Sunglasses

If there’s one accessory everyone’s getting in on this season, it’s a pair of luxury shades. From Taylor Russell’s transparent oval sunglasses to Selene Caramazza’s bedazzled brows, statement sunglasses are proving the preferred sartorial focal point for celebrities both on- and off-duty. Invest in a pair of women’s designer sunglasses to bring a dash of bold glamour to your look – luxury brands like Miu Miu, Gucci and Versace always know how to strike the perfect balance between trending and timeless design.

For a more playful feel, opt for a pair of coloured shades à la Giulia Salemi – recreate her confident clashing look with Poppy Lissiman’s signature rectangle sunglasses (and a bold bucket bag to boot). Conversely, take style cues from Chris Pine with a pair of Ray-Ban sunglasses – shapes like the iconic Clubmaster and Wayfarer can be worn with *literally* anything (case in point: Pine’s brown blazer and matching bowtie moment).
