Best Sunglasses for the UAE Sun: Cartier and Gucci Frame Guide

With strong sun for most of the year, a good pair of sunglasses is not a luxury in the UAE. It is an everyday essential. The right frame also finishes an outfit in seconds. This guide helps you choose the best shape for your face and shows some of the most popular Cartier and Gucci styles at Oasis Home Market.

Browse every style in our [sunglasses and glasses collection](/en/c/glasses), or see the full ranges from [Cartier](/en/brands/cartier) and [Gucci](/en/brands/gucci).

Pick the frame shape that suits your face

• Round or soft faces look sharp in angular and square frames
• Square or strong jawlines are balanced by round and aviator frames
• Oval faces suit almost every shape, so you can choose by style
• Long faces suit larger frames and wide lenses that add width

Cartier aviators and round frames

Aviators are the classic sunglasses shape and always look smart. For round frames, try something vintage:

• [Cartier Timeless Aviator Sunglasses](/en/p/cartier-timeless-aviator-sunglasses) is a safe choice that works on most faces
• [Cartier Vintage Round Frame Sunglasses](/en/p/cartier-vintage-round-frame-sunglasses) has a retro, artistic feel

Cartier Signature Frame styles

The Signature Frame range is for people who want a recognisable Cartier look. Choose the style that fits you best:

• [Cartier Signature Frame Style 30 Sunglasses](/en/p/cartier-signature-frame-style-30-sunglasses)
• [Cartier Signature Frame Style 31 Sunglasses](/en/p/cartier-signature-frame-style-31-sunglasses)
• [Cartier Signature Frame Style 32 Sunglasses](/en/p/cartier-signature-frame-style-32-sunglasses)
• [Cartier Signature Gold Frame Sunglasses](/en/p/cartier-signature-gold-frame-sunglasses) for a warm gold finish

Gradient and rimless styles

• [Cartier Elegant Gradient Lens Sunglasses, Style 01](/en/p/cartier-elegant-gradient-lens-sunglasses-style-01) and [Style 02](/en/p/cartier-elegant-gradient-lens-sunglasses-style-02) have lenses that fade from dark to light, which look great with summer outfits
• [Cartier Sunglasses Rimless Glasses Black Shade](/en/p/cartier-sunglasses-rimless-glasses-black-shade) and [Panthere de Cartier Rimless Glasses](/en/p/cartier-panthere-de-cartier-rimless-glasses) give a light, minimal look

A Gucci option

If you prefer a Gucci look, the [Gucci Refined Metal Frame Sunglasses](/en/p/gucci-refined-metal-frame-sunglasses) offer a slim metal frame that is easy to wear every day. Pair it with a [Gucci cap](/en/c/caps) for a matching style, and read our [Gucci caps style guide](/en/journal/gucci-caps-style-guide) for ideas.

How to choose and look after your sunglasses

• Check the lens and protection details on the product page before you buy
• Darker lenses cut glare, while gradient lenses are more versatile indoors and out
• Try to match the frame colour to your watch, belt or bag
• Keep them in a case and clean the lenses with a soft cloth, never your shirt or paper towels
• Do not leave them on a car dashboard, as the heat can damage the frame
