This four frames come from the need to translate the spirit of our most coveted frames in new styles designed for smaller faces in mind.
Black Eyewear’s current collection includes strong frames like Slam and Franco, some bold powerful designs like Pharoah and Miles, but we felt that none of these robust frames were suitable for smaller faces.
We were missing something strong and lively but also stylish and feminine, a spirit that remained true to the ethos of the 1950s.
When it came the moment to finalise the colour selection, we decided to take a risk, we chose to introduce 3 new challenging colours, not widely available in the eyewear market: DOVE, CARNATION and BUTTERSCOTCH.

” The thicker material makes this frame more suitable as a sunglass, it should also guarantee added sun protection through the thicker material used. ” – Robert Roope
The ARETHA Cat Eye glasses frame mixes the robust rounded / upswept design combination of the classic panto eyewear shapes with echos of the 1950s boldness.
” Our Jamal is a solid square shape, I added rounded lens to soften the overall look of the frame. It has a wide sides that help with protection in the sunglass model. “ – Robert Roope
A new take on the large classic square shape, JAMAL is a pure and definite design with lots of character and attitude.
Suits: An unisex design, particularly suitable for male or female wearers wishing to add character an angular feel to broader rounder faces.
Fit notes: Jamal solid square design combined with its wide bridge fitting and broad sides gives this frame an unique appeal. The large lenses and sides provide optimal sun and wind protection.
” MOORE is all about the curves and the lines. the designer was very inspired by the work of Barbara Hepworth and Henry Moore.” – Robert Roope
The MOORE are modern style suglasses, sculptured angular design with gentle sweeping curves and three bridge fittings that allows a closer alignment with the brow line. The design adds angular lines to rounder face and a feminine look with the cat eye upper rim easily positioned along the brow line.
Suits: This frame is most suitable for broader faces. The combination of a wide bridge fit and shallow upward curves helps to create an angular look.
Fit notes: The design is available in 3 bridge sizes making it an ideal frame choice. A very angular up-curving rim arrangement that easily follows the brow line add character to the face.
Measurements: Eye 51 / Bridge 22 / Temple 145
