With the direction in sunglasses moving towards [futuristic styles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oakley-x-swarovski) like single-lens designs, it’s nice to see a brand like Customeyes luxury eyewear remain [classic and sophisticated](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frances-valentine-x-caddis-eyewear).

The Customeyes luxury eyewear collection by New York-based artisan Nader Zadi looks like a modern interpretation of the classic styles that would have appeared in the time of the Great Gatsby (and when eyewear would have been referred to as ‘spectacles’). With designs that are basic and straightforward—no prints, flash, or unnecessary embellishments—the Customeyes luxury eyewear is perfect for the individual who wants to revert back to more simple times.
