The trends in sunglasses keep changing. So many styles come and go every year. Be it oval, round, square or oversized. But one classic style that has stood the test of time is the aviator style, which has never gone and will never go out of fashion. Season after season the aviators are included in the eyewear trend with a little modification. When it comes to modern style together with sporty look nothing can beat Aviators. The best part is that it can be worn by both men and women and it looks classy on everyone. Even a simple look can be enhanced just by wearing them. Just flaunt your aviators and you look nothing less than a style icon.
Aviators have the teardrop shape that comes with many variations. They generally have metal frames and polycarbonate lenses although there are glass versions (the ever popular Ray-Ban 3025 is all glass,) also available.
Ray-Ban the Leader!!!
When we talk about aviators we immediately think of Ray -Ban. The name Ray-Ban is synonymous with aviators and why not they were the first one to invent it. The aviators were developed initially for the pilots to protect their eyes while flying. But they became an instant hit with the common man also. Aviators gained popularity after the celebrities like Michael Jackson, Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr started wearing them. But there has been no looking back for Ray-Ban after Tom Cruise wore them in the movie “Top Gun”. Today Ray-Ban is the connoisseur of the aviator style of sunglasses.
