Cat Eye Sunglasses

Cat eye sunglasses feature a distinctive, upswept shape that resembles the eyes of a cat. They became popular in the 1950s and 1960s, and have since become a classic, iconic style.

Known for their feminine, retro look, they are often worn as a fashion statement.

Cat eye sunglasses are available in a wide range of colours, and materials; both plastic and metal. They are suitable for many face shapes and are popular among women.

FAQs

What face shape suits cat eye sunglasses?

Cat eye sunglasses are well-suited for oval and heart-shaped face shapes.

The upswept shape of the cat eye frames helps elongate and balance the proportions of oval faces.

The dramatic lines of the cat eye frames complement the pointed chin and wider forehead of heart-shaped faces.

The cat eye shape can also work well for square face shapes by softening the angles and adding curves.

However, keep in mind the best way to determine if a particular style of sunglasses will suit your face is to try them on and see how they look on you.

Everyone's face shape and features are unique, and what looks great on one person may not look as good on another.

What is the difference between butterfly and cat eye sunglasses?

Butterfly sunglasses and cat eye sunglasses both feature a distinctive upswept shape. However, there are some key differences between the two styles.

Cat eye sunglasses are dramatic with a pointed upsweep and the frames extend upward and outward. They often have a retro, vintage-inspired look and are popular among women.

Butterfly sunglasses are rounded and subtle with the upsweep, and the frames extend upward and outward in a gradual curve. They often have a more modern and feminine look and are also popular among women.

Butterfly sunglasses are wider and more rounded at the top tapering down to the lens.

Cat eye sunglasses are more angular and pointy at the top.

The choice between a butterfly and a cat eye sunglass will depend on personal preference and the look you are trying to achieve. Both are fashionable and complement different face shapes, but have different aesthetic appeals.

Can guys wear cat eye sunglasses?

It is important to note that fashion is not restricted to a specific gender, and men have worn cat-eye sunglasses and still do. It could also be a good way for men to stand out and add a unique touch to their outfits.

The key is to choose a pair of cat-eye sunglasses that complement your face shape, style and personal taste. If you are confident and comfortable wearing them, it will reflect on your look.
