The Saint Laurent Classic SL 39 Eyeglasses bring a refined cat-eye silhouette to women’s prescription eyewear. This frame walks the line between round and cat-eye, offering a softer, more versatile take on the classic upswept shape that flatters round, oval, and heart-shaped faces without overwhelming your features.
Each SL 39 frame is handmade from premium acetate in transparent finishes—brown, green, ivory, orange, and burgundy—that reveal depth and dimension you won’t find in injection-molded plastic. The thin acetate profile (visible in the delicate temple arms and refined rim) keeps the frame light on your face while maintaining structural integrity. Saint Laurent’s laser-engraved logo runs tone-on-tone along the outer temples, subtle branding that doesn’t shout.
The full-rim design measures 54mm lens width, 16mm bridge, and 140mm temples, a medium fit that works for most face widths. The single-bridge construction and rounded edges give the SL 39 a distinctly feminine, approachable look compared to sharper cat-eye styles in the Saint Laurent lineup.
These frames accept single-vision, progressive, and reading lenses. The full rim secures your prescription lenses cleanly, and the 47mm lens height provides enough vertical space for progressive wearers. Acetate frames from Saint Laurent are known for their adjustability—your optician can fine-tune the fit behind your ears and at the nose bridge for all-day comfort.
With proper care (lukewarm water, mild soap, and a microfiber cloth), premium acetate frames like the SL 39 can last five to ten years. Store them in the included Saint Laurent case when you’re not wearing them to protect the finish and prevent warping from heat or sunlight.
