These Iconic 90s Sunglasses Are Back for Summer

Take a look at the season’s biggest touchpoint through a fresh lens.

Words by the Editors

You have to follow the trends or be versed in sartorial history to see that 1990s style is influencing today’s looks in a big way. From slouchy denim and spaghetti straps to bucket hats and minimalist sunglasses, everything we loved about the decade’s effortlessly chic attitude is back—and all over our social media feeds. Now three decades later, the brand that defined the era and brought us some of the most memorable and revolutionary fashion moments of all time is at it once again. This summer, Calvin Klein is dipping into their archives for an anniversary eyewear collection that channels the spirit of ’90s minimalism with absolute perfection.

SHOP THE CALVIN KLEIN ’90S CAPSULE COLLECTION

Inspired by the round frames and colored lenses style icons sported on the red carpet and off duty, the capsule is made up of three gender-inclusive styles for both optical and sun. But make no mistake, these classic silhouettes aren’t your standard reissue. Available in an array of nostalgic frame and lens colorways, the collection is all new. Frames take the craftsmanship to a whole new level and are carved in premium Japanese titanium and include elevated details like mother of pearl-effect nose pads and refined details on the bridge and temples.

With a new generation of style tastemakers adopting the throwback aesthetic, the Calvin Klein’s ’90s frames are already poised to be the standout sunglass of the summer. Recording artist and photographer Nisa Jones recently styled her frames with wide-leg jeans and an oversized summer sweater for a look that optimizes effortless-cool. But she’s hardly the only one channeling the vibe. Shay Sweeney, founder of the Houston-based Sweenshots studio, paired her frames with the brand’s iconic white Calvin Klein tee—a look that proves that the best way to channel ’90s style is to go all in.
