If you’ve got an oval, round or triangular face, these bold square Alton sunglasses from Privé Revaux (the eyewear brand backed by Jamie Foxx, Hailee Steinfeld, Ashley Benson and other stars) have a medium fit that “means business,” according to the brand.

3. DL Eyewear Lonsdale Sunglasses
Founded by fashionable frames-wearing star Dan Levy, DL Eyewear is a go-to for statement-making frames ranging from oversized cat-eye sunnies to casual wire-rimmed aviators. These oversized Lonsdale shades were created in collaboration with S.S.Daley for the London-based menswear label’s Spring/Summer 2023 collection and are a “Princess Diana-inspired tour de force of thick tortoise shield.” They’re made of sturdy cellulose acetate and finished with tinted nylon lenses with 100 percent UVA/UVB protection.
4. Fossil Julian Rectangle Sunglasses
Offering 100 percent UV protection, Fossil’s Julian frames are a good pair of versatile sunglasses if you don’t want to break the bank. At under $100, they’re a good deal, too.

One of the best men’s sunglasses for pulling off the quiet luxury look are these luxe brown acetate frames from Brunello Cucinelli and Oliver Peoples’ latest collaboration. The versatile oval silhouette complements nearly every style and face shape, and the thin, tapered arms are finished with subtly engraved logos — perfect for showing off your splurge to those who care to look close enough.

6. Oakley OO9238 Fives Squared Sunglasses
If you, like Euphoria star Angus Cloud, dig the gas station sunnies look, then these Oakley Fives Squared frames are your vibe. The rectangular glasses feature a Y2K-inspired wraparound style, and they’re made of the brand’s signature lightweight O-matter material. Use code LENSES50 to get 50 percent off lens upgrades.

7. Vuarnet Legend 06 Sunglasses
Looking to the one and only 007 for style notes? Vuarnet’s Legend 06 sunglasses were worn by Daniel Craig in No Time to Die, and you can get his exact look in the French label’s unisex slim cat eye frame finished with mineral glass lenses. Other colors available.

8. Matsuda 10601H Sunglasses (31% off)
More futuristic than some of the other shades on this list, the Matsuda 10601H sunglasses (on sale at Ssence for 31 percent off) use titanium to craft steampunk-modern twist on circular frames. Gold-tone finishes and engraved detailing add an antique twist to this piece of luxury eyewear — one you’ll want to show off. (Linda Hamilton wore Matsuda in her iconic Terminator 2 scene, while Brad Pitt and Robert Downey Jr. have been seen in the Japanese brand.)

9. Persol PO714 Folding Aviator Sunglasses (30% off)
A reimagination of a classic silhouette, Persol’s PO714 aviators are foldable and a little more jagged than the type you might see on Maverick or Goose. The tortoiseshell finish gives it a modern and cool look, and they’re available in 52- or 54-millimeter lens widths and other colorways.

10. Peepers Sol Sunglasses
Peepers’ square frame Sol sunglasses are a bargain at $22 (they’re regularly $29). Available in other colors, they do all of the eye protection you’d expect from something far pricier, and they look the part, too. The UV400 lenses protect your eyes from 99.99 percent of UVA/UVB rays, and the eco-conscious frames are made from recycled materials.

11. Warby Parker Baird Sunglasses
Warby Parker’s Baird sunglasses offer a minimalist take on the classic Clubmaster style. The browline design and midcentury-inspired silhouette fit well on wide or broad faces, and we like that the online-born brand’s website lets you try frames on virtually if you can’t make it into a store. You can get them with prescription lenses starting at $245, too.

12. Caddis Metamodernist Scout Sunglasses
Cool eyewear brand Caddis is known for its “anti anti-aging” approach to reading glasses. Worn by stars like Matthew McConnaughey, Naomi Watts and Katie Couric, the brand offers retro frames such as these Metamodernist Scout sunglasses that “are like leather pants for your face.” (Gwyneth Paltrow wore them to her infamous ski trial.)

13. Versace Biggie 53mm Round Sunglasses (20% off)
If subtle isn’t in your accessorizing vocabulary, these bold, logo-happy Biggie sunglasses from Versace are for you. These 53-millimeter white round frames are designed to turn heads, thanks to the unmistakable Medusa logos on the temples.

14. Tom Ford Buckley-02 56mm Wayfarer Sunglasses
Tom Ford takes the traditional Wayfarer silhouette and turns it into a high-fashion piece that’ll last for seasons to come in the Buckley-02 sunglasses. The 56-millimeter lenses make this style ideal for wide or broad faces, and they’re finished with the designer-filmmaker’s logo.

15. Vontélle Ankara Aviators
Vontélle’s Ankara aviators pay homage to the African heritage of its founders. Complete with traditional patterns as well as modern designs, the Black-owned company makes sunnies that combine new and old. They’re for a good cause, too, as Vontélle donates a portion of sales to homeless shelters and various charities.

16. Alexander Daas Victory Sunglasses
Often sported by Forest Whittaker, this charmingly retro pair from Alexander Daas combines Hollywood style with practicality. Not only are the Victory sunglasses stylish, but you can also choose different frame and lens combinations. (Michael Keaton sported the eyewear designer’s frames in Need for Speed, while Zendaya is reportedly a regular client at the brand’s L.A. boutique.)

17. RetroSuperFuture The Warhol Sunglasses
Inspired by Andy Warhol’s classic shades, these black keyhole bridge sunglasses by RetroSuperFuture are a good natural piece for the summer. Those sleek circular frames will never go out of style, and for the quality you’re getting, the $140 price tag (down from $220) isn’t bad either.
