WHO: For the adventurous, the bold and those who love the unexpected.

WHAT: Neon detailing is the perfect way to add some bold, bright excitement to any frame—and it’s been popping up all across this season’s newest collections.

WEAR: (Top to Bottom) From Tura’s Superdry, style SDOW500T grabs attention with its bold, geometric neon detailing on the outer corner of the eye, creating an engaging work of art that gives off an optimistic feel. From Mondottica’s Christian Lacroix, style CL3077 appears minimal at first, but the temple inners and tips showcase a fun, bright and unexpected neon detail, creating the perfect combination of understated and exciting. From ClearVision’s Steve Madden, the Aberdeen frame fades from a typical metal finish to a neon lime green shade, which shows up again on the temple tips. It creates an exciting, fresh and statement-making look. Finally, from ESE International’s Coco and Breezy, style Fortune combines an exciting neon blue with a classic tortoise, crossing the two shades in a funky, geometric overlap and creating a lively conversation.

WHY: Adding an unexpected neon touch to a frame is a great way to express confidence and optimism—an apt approach to take stepping into the Spring of a new year.
