Bold colors and thick plastic frames dominate this season’s eyewear trends. “Metal frames ruled in the late ’90s, early 2000s,” says Liz Segre, editorial director for AllAboutVision.com. “(But) people are more interested in experimenting with color now.” Unusual combinations of colors, such as brown and turquoise, are coming into play for women this year. Darker colors, such as gun-metal gray and black, are in high demand for men, Segre says. Introducing the eyewear of 2010: a smart, modern twist on quirky, retro roots.
