September 2025 Celebrity Eyewear Roundup
September never fails to deliver on glamour, and 2025 was no exception. The month marked the genesis of the global fashion calendar with the Spring/Summer 2026 fashion weeks rolling from New York to London, Milan and Paris. London also played host to the ELLE Style Awards 2025, a night celebrating icons and innovators across fashion, film and music. Alongside these, the closing week of the US Open, the MTV Video Music Awards, and the Toronto International Film Festival kept red carpets busy and cameras flashing. In every setting, one accessory stood out as essential—sunglasses, the ultimate style punctuation.
Whether framing cinematic premieres or elevating off-duty appearances, eyewear emerged as an integral part of the season’s most photographed looks. From archival revivals to contemporary masterpieces, celebrities used shades to define their personalities as much as their wardrobes. Here’s our curated edit of the standout eyewear moments spotted throughout September 2025.
One Battle After Another
The premiere of the highly anticipated film set the tone for star-studded elegance.
Dita Von Teese, being Dita Von Teese, stunned in her own Dita x Dita Von Teese DTS 522 01 (now discontinued). Enough said.
The gold detail on Benicio del Toro’s Bottega Veneta BV1359SA 001 lit up his all-black look, an official cue for the shift into cooler months.
Gwendoline Christie, although attending the premiere sans shades, was later seen in New York pairing a purple-grey suit with tortoiseshell Alaïa AA0085S 004, a striking finish to a power ensemble.

At Pretavoir, we continue to bring you these icons and their modern equivalents, ensuring every glance feels runway-ready!
