Xyza Asked:

Does anyone find that designer sunglasses pretty much all look the same--there are aviators for D&G and Balenciaga and I wouldn't be tell which pair is from which without looking at the side logo (after all, they are all made by Safilo or Luxottica). People all look exactly the same with their big sunglasses at school just to boast the brand, and the occasional one who wears smaller sunglasses (something unique like maybe vintage Jean Paul Gaultier) really stands out. It also is quite unfortunate that designer sunglasses possibly work even less effectively than the drugstore kind because they are often unpolarized. If you want sunglasses for the sole purpose of blocking the sun, Oakleys and Raybans are the way to go.

Reply:

Well, yes it is true that MOST designer brands all look the same. Chanel have different styles though and so do dior. I wear the big sunglasses, not to show off the brand, but just because I like how they look on me and to block out the sun. Also, I would NEVER spend 200 something dollars on designer sunglasses. So I buy the fake ones for like 50. haha

 

logo Do people just buy safilo sunglasses for the brand names rather than design or use?
