The ‘Jackie O’

Oversized sunglasses are a sure hit among celebrities and ooze A List style. Indeed this particular style of shades has maintained iconic fashion status in recent seasons and has become quite a pop culture phenomenon. The lady who first made them famous was First Lady and American Royalty Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis who favoured oversized style sunglasses during the early 1970’s era. This signature style is most commonly referred to now as ‘The Jackie O’ which numerous celebrities also opt for due to the dramatic and sophisticated look the sunglasses create.

Many designers such as Prada and Gucci have certainly caught onto this Hollywood glamour trend. However, the style of the oversized sunglasses may not be suitable for every face shape so no matter how determined you are to replicate the Jackie O look, don’t opt for oversized if they are not designed to flatter your facial features. The numerous brands and similar styles available on the market will ensure your shades can create that A List drama in a way that is perfect to suit you.
