EYEBUYDIRECT PREDICTS FIVE EYE-CATCHING TRENDS FOR 2022

Pulling inspiration from its 2022 Trends Report and best-selling eyewear, award-winning DTC online retailer predicts hottest eyewear trends of the year

— EyeBuyDirect ( https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=3416257-1&h=2654370186&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eyebuydirect.com%2F&a=EyeBuyDirect ), the leading online retailer for prescription eyewear, has predicted the top five eyewear trends consumers will see in the eyewear industry this year.

In looking at top-selling frames and tapping into their previously released 2022 Trends Report, EyeBuyDirect expects consumers will gravitate toward five specific trends this year:

– Revamped Neutrals: Neutrals have always been a go-to when it comes to
eyewear. Basic white and black is out, and soft pigments are the new
neutrals for 2022, allowing your eyewear to elevate your outfit.
Whether it’s creamy avocado, olive oil, or honeycomb yellow, expect to
see more eyewear featuring softer tones in addition to clear,
translucent frames in these color palettes become popular this year
– Bold, over-the-top frames: Hate them or love them, cat-eye glasses are
slated to be a top-seller for 2022. These retro frames come in a
variety of colors and shapes (some more bold than others). This kind of
eyewear adds sharpness to the face and a sophisticated touch to those
more casual outfits consumers are rocking from their home office
– What’s old is new again (vintage): While cat-eye glasses might be
trendier with women, we’ll see an equal amount of male consumers
gravitating towards vintage eyewear this year. Aviators and wayfarer
frames are two top trends we anticipate, both in prescription lenses
and sunglasses. Vintage frames featuring hinge detailing or tortoise
template tips bring a timelessness that complement every outfit – and
one we’ll see consumers opt for
– Sportitude: Sports meets personality in this 2022 trend, as consumers
are pushing traditional ‘sporting’ boundaries with their eyewear, we’ll
see these futuristic, wraparound sport shield glasses gain popularity.
Iridescent gradients and polarized lenses seamlessly take consumers
from the pickleball court to the street, while adding a layer of needed
protection
– Reading Sunglasses: Readers are having their moment, with more consumers
splurging for a pair of comfortable and fashion-forward glasses that
provide extra support for reading a magazine or scrolling through daily
headlines. As the days get longer and the temperatures increase,
consumers will be looking for a pair of readers to take outside, so
we’ll see reading sunglasses start to trend in the coming months.
Whether a basic single-tint, mirror-tinted (blocking 10-60% more
sunlight than standard tinted frames) or gradient-tinted reading
sunglasses, consumers will be snapping up this eyewear

“This is the year for individuality to shine – It’s no longer about glasses for the masses, but more so what frames highlight one’s individuality and personal style,” said Jim Merk, Brand Director at EyeBuyDirect. “EyeBuyDirect is predicting eyewear will once again take center stage this year, and we have some exciting new collections that encompass these trends.”
