Unless you’ve been hiding under a rock, it’s likely that your wardrobe has — consciously or subconsciously — swayed towards the still-raging Y2K trend in recent seasons. Whether it’s low-rise jeans, fluffy accessories, or wrapping sunglasses, the trend has conquered all sides of the modern wardrobe. One brand that has masterfully surfed this wave with its authentic ‘90s roots is Arnette.

Founded in 1992, the brand has always done things its own way, sticking to its principles of self-expression and originality. With the taste for ‘90s sunglasses back in full force, we thought it was only right to round up some of our top picks from one of the OGs.
