Yellow is the colour of the summer, but the sunny shade isn’t the easiest to wear. Opt for some statement yellow-lens eyewear to channel the trend – from small Nineties lenses to aviators to cat-eye styles. Here, the Stylist fashion team pick their favourites.
Dior Club 3 Aviators
Chosen by Kitty McGee, Executive Fashion Director

“I wear a uniform of minimal basics: crew-neck jumpers, white T-shirts and jeans or tailored trousers, so statement accessories are where I have my fun. I love a coloured lens and recently misplaced some blue sunglasses I have been wearing for the past few years, so these yellow Dior aviators are top of my current wish-list.”
£319, Dior (Farfetch.com)
Chloé oversized metal-frame aviators
Chosen by Arabella Greenhill, Fashion Director
“Metal-framed aviators are my jam. I have a pair of opticals in the same style that I wear for everyday and love. These will be perfect for my upcoming New York Fashion Week trip; they compliment colourful midi dresses as well as working with simple tailoring.”
£373, Chloé (farfetch.com)
Ace & Tate Grace Sunglasses
Chosen by Billie Bhatia, Fashion Writer

“These acetate frames are the perfect holiday accessory; they’re really fun to wear, will amp up your swimwear and make your black dresses summer appropriate. What more could you want?”
£98, Ace & Tate
Finlay & Co Wentworth Sunglasses
Chosen by Polly Knight, Fashion Editor
“I love a yellow lens so am thrilled about this trend. These feel statement enough but are still quite minimal, which I like, and the chunky black frame feels cool and fresh.”
£140, Finlay & Co

Moscot Shtarker frames with custom made tint in Mellow Yellow
Chosen by Lucy Reber, freelance fashion editor

“I like wearing colour but couldn’t do a yellow lens with a yellow frame too. This Moscot style is punchy but still feels really cool. I’ll be wearing them with a floral wrap dress and trainers until the temperature finally drops.”
£335, Moscot
Rejina Pyo Nix yellow sunglasses
Chosen by Moya Lothian-McLean, Editorial Assistant
