Butterfly UV 400 Sunglasses

The Butterfly is an oversized sunglasses uv protection statement designed for anyone who wants softer geometry without losing presence. The frame fans outward at the upper corners, drawing a quiet butterfly shape that reads as feminine but never costume. Slim gold metal temples balance the wide lens face, and the smoke lens sits clean against the rim. Four colorways are available: black, brown, light purple, and dark purple.

The look

This is a wide, geometric silhouette with a faceted hexagonal cut at the outer edge. The black version pairs glossy black acetate-look rims with polished gold-tone metal at the bridge and temples, while the translucent option swaps in a champagne-clear rim that lets the gold hardware do more of the talking. The bridge sits low and narrow, the temples taper down to a fine point, and the overall stance is open across the brow line. It is a luxury sunglasses for less proposition: editorial proportions, restrained finish. The brand engraving on the inner rim is the only marking you will notice up close.

Materials and lens technology

The frame is built around a metal core with a glossy outer rim, finished in either deep black or translucent rose. Gold-tone temples carry a subtle ridge detail at the hinge for grip and visual rhythm. Every lens carries full UV400 filtration, blocking 100 percent of UVA and UVB up to 400 nanometers. The smoke gradient lens softens contrast without dimming the world. These are non-polarized; if glare reduction matters more to you, the Cat Eye Polarized covers that brief in acetate.

Who it suits

The wide upper line and tapered lower edge balance round, oval, and heart-shaped faces especially well, lifting the cheekbone and lengthening the brow. The scale leans feminine but the geometry is clean enough to read unisex on the right wearer. Use them for daylight driving, terrace lunches, travel days, and any moment where you want the frame to do a little of the talking. They pair as easily with a tailored coat as with a linen shirt.

If you prefer a tighter, more classic shape, the Old School Aviator sits in the same price tier with a narrower lens. For a softer rounded option, see the DeLuxe Oval in blue.
