Shade Shade , also known as slatted shades or Venetian Blind shades are louvered sunglasses. The design of louvered sunglasses was released in America in the 1950s, and modern designs in the early 1980s. The 1980s design became a popular teen fashion trend.

Instead of having a lens, the design is characterized by a "shutter" motif, which is part of the frame. Nuances are marketed as suitable for men and women and are available in a wide range of styles and colors. Depending on the design, Shutter Shades may not function as sunglasses; although some models contain UV-resistant lenses, many do not, and show only a series of horizontal plastic "shades," which do not provide eye protection from UV light or prevent large amounts of light from entering the eye.
