Garrett Leight Garrett Leight California Optical - Crap Eyewear - more funky, youthful, beach/skate culture. It was founded in Venice and designs its sunglasses a block from the beach; it also uses bio-acetate and 100% UVA/UVB-protective lenses.

Recorded answer text · Perplexity · 30 August 2026

If you want the best trendy sunglasses brands in the US, the most consistently fashionable names across style coverage are Quay, Gentle Monster, Miu Miu, Gucci, Prada, and Ray-Ban.

A practical short list by vibe:

- Most trendy / fashion-forward: Quay is repeatedly called out for on-trend, frequently updated styles. - Street-style favorite: Gentle Monster is a recurring pick in fashion coverage for contemporary, statement-making frames. - Luxury trend leaders: Miu Miu, Gucci, and Prada are highlighted for chic, current designs. - Iconic but still stylish: Ray-Ban remains a top all-around choice and is consistently ranked among the best sunglasses brands overall. - Cool-girl / fashion-editor picks: Le Specs, Garrett Leight, Illesteva, and Karen Wazen show up in style-focused brand roundups.

If you want the best balance of trendy + wearable, I'd start with Quay and Gentle Monster; if you want premium designer trend pieces, go with Miu Miu, Prada, or Gucci.

If you want, I can also give you: - best trendy sunglasses brands under $100 - best luxury trendy brands - best brands for men vs women
