Cat-eye Glasses - Frequently Asked Questions
Cat-eye glasses were popular in the past, present, and for sure will be in the future. Since the vintage frame hit the market, they’ve always been up to date with the current trends.
It was probably during the 50s that cat-eye glasses were tremendously trendy and suited the new look for women. Even luxury eyewear icons like Dior jumped on the wave and produced stylish cat-eye frames.
The 60s just boosted the frame’s attractiveness even as sunglasses, that many women, from diverse backgrounds, fell in love with. It was a new style that resonated with a sexy, elegant, and free woman.
The cat-eye frame has been revisited throughout the years and many have created different designs embedding the retro style.
Firstly, to find the right cat-eye silhouette for you, you have to determine which face you have. Start by standing in front of the mirror, with a bar of soap or lipstick, and outline your face. You’ll see which image resembles closely the outline you’ve drawn: round, oval, square, or even heart-shaped. You can always refer to our face shape guide for reference.
Due to the classic cat-eye frame having angular lines, the retro style is a suitable fit for round or oval faces. With an oval face, you can pretty much style any frame design and with cat-eye sunglasses or eyeglasses, you’d look best with a slightly larger pair - avoid oversized frames. You may find your next pair of prescription cat-eye glasses with Gucci.
A round face would also gain contrast from angular cat-eye frames creating a balance between the facial features and glasses. With round glasses you could risk your features looking even more rounder - so why not add some edges. Our Value Collection offers a range of diverse frames you can find in any shape or size, including eye-catching and fun cat-eye frames!
Although cat-eye frames would best suit oval or round faces, this particular frame design can also be found in a rounder shape. This is great news for those who have more angular facial features, like square faces.
With a square face, you want to go the opposite direction as oval or round faces. Choose cat-eye frame styles with a softer and rounder edge - move away from the boxy look. Keep a smart and elegant look by combining the vintage frames with classic black or tortoiseshell colors.
There are so many cat-eye glasses that you can browse for men, women, and kids, that not only offer a great pair of glasses but also fine eye protection.
