Royal Icons Collection | Vision Express

For over 70 years, the Queen hasn’t been afraid to be bold with her fashion statements, making her a global fashion icon.

Which is why it’s unsurprising, that the Queen has been voted the UK’s favourite celebrity glasses wearer in our “Eyewear it best” poll. From large 70s shades to slick cat-eye sunglasses, the Queen has looked stylish in frames for decades and still does.

To celebrate the Queens Platinum Jubilee and the nation feeling very patriotic. We’re going to take you through our selection of the hottest glasses and sunglasses and includes some our British brands like Ted Baker, Burberry and Paul Smith that exemplify our patriotic spirit. The colours of the Union Jack flag have inspired our choices today, so come with us and look at some of the best red, white, and blue eyewear that we have to offer.

Red eyewear

First became a popular colour choice in the early 1970s, feel inspired by one of our choices below.

Seen SN AM21 (RR00)

The Seen SNs are our first choice for a great pair of red glasses. The true bright red colour of the glasses themselves offers a real pop to your look. Combining this colour with a slightly smaller size of lens brings about a contrast between the pop of the colour and the size of the glasses themselves. Bring this contrast to any jubilee street party and you’ll be the fashion talk of the day.

Mulberry VML 101 (0GFP)

Providing you with something different in red, these Mulberry VMLs bring a slightly more subtle shade of red to the table. Combining this muted colour choice with a classic style of sizing gives you a subtle fashion that can really enhance your look. These sunglasses are one of our favourites and can really add to your elegance for the Jubilee parties this year.

Paul Smith Aubrey PS SP010 (03)

The Paul Smith Aubreys grants you a sleek and contemporary design. Combining an acetate frame with rectangular frames gives you a lightweight comfort for the summer. The frames themselves are finished in red with red lenses. These sunglasses help to create a bold look that’s perfect for this Jubilee season. These daring red sunglasses are also elegant enough to be worn on special occasions such as celebrating the queen’s jubilee this year.

Burberry BE 4261 (383513)

Another great pair of sunglasses to style out with for celebrating the Jubilee, the Burbery BE 4261’s provides you with a sense of style that’s truly one of a kind. Combining an acetate frame that gives you a featherweight feel that doesn’t distract you from anything you plan to do for the Jubilee, with a rectangular shape that provides you with a daring look for any occasion, these sunglasses give you a truly stunning look.

White eyewear

Has been a trend over the past few years, recent additions give the translucent tints a crystal-like look.

Prive Revaux The Victoria (C100)

For a piece of statement eyewear, The Victoria by Prime Reveaux is the way to go. Sharing the name of one of our most famous monarchs, these glasses are the perfect accessory for the Jubilee. With their distinctive cat-eye frame combined with a bold oversize look, these sunglasses are a fantastic way to make a statement when celebrating the Platinum Jubilee. You can also have your prescription placed in these frames, so they eliminate the need to keep switching glasses in the bright sun of June.

Gant GA 7203 (25B)

For a slightly more subdued look, we recommend looking at these Gant GA’s. With their round frames, these sunglasses provide a retro-chic look that rounded glasses are known for. Combine this with the white colouring and you have a subtle but still no less fashionable look. These sunglasses also provide you with 100% UV protection and can also have your prescription installed, allowing you to enjoy the gorgeous weather that the Jubilee looks to provide.
