The highly-anticipated series of Love Island season 12 is officially underway, and despite being so early we're already beaming at the endless fashion potential. No, we're not just talking about the show's unforgettable outfits and statement swimwear - one thing that's on our mind is Love Island sunglasses.
While the show’s popularity undeniably stems from its entertainment value (otherwise known as drama), I’d be lying if I said that heated arguments and fire pit chats were the only reason I’d be tuning in to watch the show every night. The other reason? Accessories. More specifically, sunglasses.
Over the years, we've seen the Islanders wearing an array of luxury eyewear, with brands like Prada, Miu Miu (the brand's Glimpse Acetate Sunglasses have made countless appearances) and Celine featured in almost every episode. The show's designer shades have quickly become synonymous with the sought-after accessories seen on the show, much like Gemma Owen's Tiffany necklace that caused quite a stir.
It's not only that, we've previously spotted an abundance of sunglasses from affordable high-street brands, including Free People and River Island, which is great if you're looking to replicate the style of your favourite Islander without having to reconsider your summer budget.
So, here's where you can shop the exact Love Island season 12 sunglasses, as featured in the most current series.
