If you know your sunglasses then you've probably heard of OG brand Quay, seen amongst the A-listers and Z-listers, whilst also being affordable enough for us to invest in. Whether you're Lady Gaga or just popping to the shops, Quay sunglasses are easy to throw on.

The brand has been around for decades now and doesn't seem to be going away. From back in 2019 when Jennifer Lopez had a collection to last year when it was the official partner of Love Island, the sunnies are timeless - and clearly a total celeb fave.

We've seen Lily Collins rock them in an episode of Emily in Paris(like the fashionista she is), supermodels like Gigi Hadid and Candice Swanepoel have them stacked up in their wardrobes and even Little Mix legend Jade Thirwall has rocked them at festivals.

Starting from just £20, Quay sunnies are easily affordable and a brand you'll want to invest in - because, if the A-listers wear them, then they must be good enough.

If you're as nosy as us and want to know all the times celebs have worn Quay sunglasses as well as what shape and style they're exactly wearing, we've hunted them all down below.

We'll be adding that to our basket.

Most recently (and possibly most obviously), we have seen Quay be donned on the face of Love Islanders, all over the villa in this year's season as well as 2022, where the sunglasses brand was an official partner.

There is no better girl boss than she who is Lizzo, of course. And back in 2020, we saw the Queen of being extra launch her own collection with Quay sunnies. Obsessed.

Jennifer Lopez

Miss Jenny-from-the-block Lopez is a huge fan of Quay, being donned in the sunnies for years (clearly she found them cool before they were actually cool). She was so keen on them that she actually sorted a partnership with the sunglasses brand back in 2019. Businesswoman or wha?

Gigi Hadid

Gigi Hadid was spotted on the streets of New York wearing a pair of Quay back in the summer of 2021 (hence the mask) and as much as we LOVE the Strange Love frames, unfortunately, they're discontinued... Snap up Quay The DL for a similar vibe.

Victoria's Secret angel AKA Candice Swanepoel has also been seen out and about in the Quay Look Out sunnies - paired up with a super sweet crop top and jeans. Get the look in Quay's more recent Counting Stars.

Gorg rapper Iggy Azalea showed off a HOT bikini pic wearing these funky Quay sunglasses last year and erm, we're kinda sold. Luckily, you can still snap up the exact pair if you're looking for a retro choice.

Jade Thirwall from Little Mix

We've seen Jade Thirwall dress up in a few pairs of Quay sunnies, but mostly in these pink No Cap pair at festivals back in 2021. Unfortch, the exact pair is sold out (from a partnership with Saweetie) but you can still get them in matte black.
