Irish Eyes: Inside the First Ireland Fashion Week

Ireland's first Fashion Week officially launched last week, and with it, a trail of sartorial inspiration and a clear message: Irish style is thriving.

While the runways were buzzing with incredible designs, we had our eyes peeled for the glasses and sunglasses trends that stole the show. From the oversized tortoiseshell frames that exude confidence to the sophisticated simplicity of refined metals, there was a perfect pair for every look.

This season, it’s all about elevating your everyday style with frames that make a statement.

To celebrate the launch of Ireland Fashion Week, we hosted an exclusive influencer and media event in Dublin to showcase our latest designer and in-house eyewear collections. Take a peek inside our event, and our favourite Fashion Week trends below.

Peek Inside with Specsavers: Frames meet Fashion

To celebrate the launch of Ireland Fashion Week, we hosted an exclusive event in Dublin to unveil our Autumn-Winter 25/26 collection. As the official eyewear partner for Ireland Fashion Week's Irish Sea and Irish Roots Graduate Shows, our event offered guests an immersive introduction to the key trends of the season.

Colour specialist Isabel Gleeson provided personalised colour mapping, helping guests discover their perfect shades from this season's collection.

Style Collective ambassador Brendan Courtney and Specsavers Style Editor Bianca Swan then discussed the collection, sharing the latest trends and their must-have pieces. They highlighted how frames can do much more than simply match your coat or favourite piece of knitwear.

Our A/W25 collection embraces a mix of timeless classics, rich autumnal tones, and bold statement pieces, so there’s a frame for any day and every mood. Specsavers Style Editor, Bianca Swan, breaks down how six styles can instantly update your autumn-winter wardrobe.

Discover our latest A/W25 collection

Oversized Tortoiseshell

Tortoiseshell frames are a seasonal staple, in burnt sienna, chestnut and amber tones. The style adds warmth and texture, making it ideal for pairing with chunky knits, wool coats and rich autumnal tones.

The Vic frames nail the oversized tortoiseshell trend with a twist, taking a classic pilot shape with bold acetate frames that speak volumes. The sleek double bridge instantly elevates them for a front-row look.

Showcase this texture with luxurious knits like cashmere or chunky wool for a polished autumn/winter outfit.

Retro Cat Eye

Cat eyes, bold acetates and vintage shapes channel the elegance of the '50s and '60s, perfect for layering with dramatic coats and structured silhouettes that dominate cold-weather fashion.

Style the feline style with our Tathra Sun RX sunglasses. These angular shades boast gold-metal wire rims and translucent temple tips.

Lean into the ‘50s aesthetic by pairing these with high-waisted cigarette trousers and a classic knit top.

Elevated Everyday

These crisp, geometric frames add definition to layered looks and balance out voluminous outerwear. They’re especially flattering on rounder face shapes and pair well with bold accessories.

Take a relaxed staple and add premium detail with the Quiksilver Sun RX 02 sunglasses.

These frames feature a clean square shape in a crystal-brown acetate. The matte bevelled rim and textured ridges on the tips add a layer of sophistication.

Use these sunglasses to instantly polish your weekend wardrobe. Pair them with clean-cut dark denim and a structured jacket to nail that effortless cool look.

Refined Metals

Slim metal frames in gold, bronze and brushed silver offer a clean and architectural accent. Style with tailored coats, structural silhouettes and muted palettes for a sophisticated look.

Less is more, as long as the details are flawless.

Inspired by the timeless Elton John anthem, the Rocket Man glasses feature classic pilot-style lenses and high-shine gold metal frames.

The design is elevated with fun star detailing on the double bridge.

Pair these frames with modern silhouettes like a simple black roll-neck or a well-cut denim jacket to keep the focus on the sleek gold glasses.
