Top 10 Sunglasses of 2024, as Seen on Celebrities

Celebrities are always ahead of the game when it comes to setting trends, and 2024 is no exception.

This year, sunglasses have made a major comeback.

In this post, we’re spotlighting the top 10 sunglasses of 2024 as seen on your favorite celebrities. Whether you’re channeling Beyoncé’s classic elegance or Bad Bunny’s avant-garde aesthetic, these shades are sure to inspire your next eyewear purchase.

Without further ado, let’s dive into the must-have sunglasses of the year.

1. Zendaya in Persol

Zendaya turned heads this year with her role in the movie “Challengers.”

In the movie (and on the movie poster), she sported — pun intended — modified round sunglasses in black from the brand Persol.

Originally made famous by Steve McQueen in the ‘60s, the sunglasses added a touch of classic cool to Tashi Duncan’s (Zendaya) look. 

Persol’s appeal doesn’t stop there. Katie Holmes often rocks Persol specs as part of her street style in Brooklyn.

“Challengers” is a gripping tale of love and rivalry, with Zendaya playing an injured tennis star turned coach. The film explores the complex dynamics between her character, her ex-boyfriend (Josh O’Connor), and her tennis champion husband (Mike Faist). Ultimately, it culminates in a high-stakes match at the ATP Challenger Tour.

2. Miley Cyrus in Dolce & Gabbana

In March 2024, Miley Cyrus starred and sang in Dolce & Gabbana’s new eyewear campaign. Having rocked the brand for some time, this partnership was a natural fit for the two-time Grammy winner.

The sensual shoot features her showcasing Dolce & Gabbana’s women’s eyewear, including oversized acetate sunglasses, crystal-embellished cat-eye frames, frameless mirrored lens silhouettes, and optical frames in black and clear pink acetate.

Miley also created the soundtrack titled “Heart” for the Italian fashion house’s latest collection of sunglasses and optical frames.

3. Bad Bunny in Kuboraum

Bad Bunny, the genre-bending musician and co-chair of the Met Gala 2024, embraced his avant-garde spirit with Kuboraum Z14 sunglasses. A signature of the Italian brand, these diamond-shaped specs offered a futuristic counterpoint to his tailored ensemble.

The custom ensemble consisted of a navy jacket and matching trousers with red details on the inside of the leg and white seam measurement patterns — all custom Maison Margiela Artisanal Couture. He finished the look with black Tabis, black leather gloves, and a fabulous hat reminiscent of a matador, jester, and Renaissance man.

4. Selena Gomez in Etnia Barcelona

Rare Beauty founder Selena Gomez arrived at the Cannes Film Festival for the premiere of her new film “Emilia Pérez.” 

Fresh-faced and ready for a bit of shopping in town, she paired a white knit peplum dress by Self Portrait with white oval Etnia Barcelona sunglasses, black and white slingback pumps, and gold jewelry.

“Emilia Pérez” is a musical thriller set in Mexico, written and directed by Jacques Audiard. Described in “Variety” as an “opera libretto in four acts,” the film also stars Zoe Saldana. It follows disgruntled lawyer Rita (Saldana), who is tasked with assisting an escaped Mexican cartel leader (Karla Sofía Gascón) in undergoing sex reassignment surgery to both evade the authorities and affirm her gender.

5. Anya Taylor-Joy in Black Cat-Eye Sunglasses

As she continued the promotion for her sci-fi action film “Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga” in May, Anya Taylor-Joy was spotted out in New York City wearing a custom Marni mini dress. The cerulean dress, flecked with literal streaks of paint, gave the effect of an impressionist painting. The high-neck, halter-style piece also featured a sleeveless bodice that curved inward along Taylor-Joy’s waist before it flared out into an A-line skirt.

She accessorized the look with a few simple touches, including black cat-eye sunglasses, a single silver bangle, drop earrings, and a statement ring. To round out the ensemble, she wore black strappy sandal heels.

6. Kim Kardashian in Black Oversized Sunglasses

In March 2024, Kim Kardashian attended the Vanity Fair Oscar Party to mingle with fellow celebs and newly-minted Oscar winners. 

She wore a white, sculptural Balenciaga dress for the night. To up the cool factor, she also wore black oversized sunglasses at some point during the event.

7. Chris Hemsworth in Tom Ford

Chris Hemsworth and his wife, Elsa Pataky, wore complementary Tom Ford looks at the 2024 Met Gala. 

As a co-chair of this year’s event, the “Thor” actor made a striking impression with black Tom Ford aviators, which perfectly complemented his three-piece, cream-colored Tom Ford suit.

8. Ayo Edibiri in Round Metal Sunglasses

Nigerian-American actress Ayo Edibiri took home the award for Best Actress in a Comedy Series for her role as Sydney Adamu in the television series “The Bear” at the 2024 Critics Choice Awards.

She attended the event wearing a white suit from The Row’s Spring 2024 collection, which she accessorized with drop earrings, black pumps, and round retro-style sunglasses. Ayo’s vintage-inspired shades added a unique element to her elegant ensemble.

9. Timothée Chalamet in Classic Black Shades

In February, Timothée Chalamet attended the “Dune: Part Two” premiere in New York City, making a bold fashion statement. He wore a striking leather-on-leather look: a loose-fitting, caramel-colored leather top tucked into a pair of black leather skinny pants. 

He completed his edgy outfit with black boots and a classic pair of black shades.

“Dune: Part Two” is the sequel to “Dune (2021)” and the second of a two-part adaptation of Frank Herbert’s 1965 novel “Dune.” The movie follows Paul Atreides (Chalamet) as he unites with the Fremen people of the desert planet Arrakis to wage war against House Harkonnen.

10. Beyoncé in Shield Sunglasses

Beyoncé wore a fabulous golden-yellow suit (which looked like an incredibly luxurious pajama set) to sit front-row at a Louis Vuitton runway show. She accessorized with huge, reflective shield sunglasses, a massive diamond choker necklace, and a black handbag with the brand’s signature logo print.

Although the runway show technically occurred in June 2023, the singer and her husband, rapper and producer Jay-Z, traveled to Paris to preview Louis Vuitton’s menswear Spring/Summer 2024 collection. For this reason, it’s worth featuring Beyoncé’s huge shield sunglasses in this 2024 roundup of iconic eyewear looks.
