Diaries of a Maximalist: The Power of Bold Frames

Fashion enthusiasts everywhere know that oversized sunglasses are less of an accessory and more of an emblem of elegance, confidence, and a little touch of allure. These frames are steeped in history, drawing inspiration from both old Hollywood glamour and today’s high-fashion looks. With bold designs and striking geometric shapes, oversized frames bring out the beauty in facial details by creating a compelling contrast that highlights features like the chin and lips while offering the added protection of large lenses. MAGRABi’s new selection celebrates this style with iconic frames from a plethora of incoming brand collections.

Chunky Frames with Timeless Charm

Oversized frames channel the charm of old Hollywood, bringing to mind classic movie stars who captivated audiences with their large black sunglasses. The appeal of these designs is timeless and transformative, adding sophistication and depth to any modern look. Designers like Prada, Balenciaga, and Burberry have continued this legacy, blending retro charm with innovative materials and chic embellishments. Brands such as Tiffany and Bulgari put a luxurious twist on these styles, offering frames that capture the perfect harmony of classic and contemporary.

Choosing Your Perfect Oversized Frames

Selecting the right oversized frames is all about enhancing your natural features. Here’s a quick guide:

Heart-shaped faces work beautifully with circular frames, while square-shaped faces balance well with oval or aviator frames. For round faces, square or cat-eye frames let their features shine through, while rectangular faces are the ones who’ve hit the jackpot, as generally all frames tend to suit them well.

For a truly personalized touch, consider the color as well. Light skin tones look best with cool tones like silver, gray, and black, while warm skin tones glow in earthy hues, browns, and patterns like tortoiseshell.

Styling Tips for the Ultimate Maximalist Look

Oversized sunglasses are a statement piece that stands out best when paired with minimal accessories, allowing the frames to take center stage. Designers such as Balmain and Etro, whose latest collections feature powerful chunky silhouettes, prove that less is more when accessorizing with oversized eyewear. Avoiding large jewelry can let the frames’ elegance shine through.
