Let’s be honest, when it came to best dressed galleries, this year’s Oscars hit a bum note (let’s not even get into the guffaw over Moonlight). And while there were a handful of red carpet hits – Emma Stone scored BIG with her fringed gold Givenchy Couture number – it was Jennifer Aniston who grabbed the headlines when she unwittingly gifted her mega-expensive Aviator sunglasses as a ‘wedding present’ to two surprised guests.
It’s not often the red carpet marries fashion with function, so while we’ve no doubt the Friends star was swiftly reimbursed her missing shades, it must have smarted to emerge from Hollywood’s Dolby Theatre into the sunshine without her trusted armory.
Never without her wire-rimmed frames, Jennifer is the poster girl for eyewear’s most iconic style with her classic fashion sense perfectly suiting the timeless appeal of this legendary frame.
Originally designed for pilots – explaining the Aviator moniker – Jennifer demonstrates the versatility of these chic shades, wearing it just as easily with a plunging Atelier Versace gown on the red carpet to a Pantone-coloured bikini poolside in Mexico.
Whether it’s glistening gold frames (Jen’s go to) or an oversized retro shape, there’s eyewear to suit everyone. Here are our favorite Aniston inspired picks to take you into summer (and beyond).
