Elegance 2069

Elegance 2069 Prescription Glasses

If you want a frame with a bit of attitude, start with a cat-eye. The Elegance 2069 is a women’s full-rim metal cat-eye frame in Black, Grey/Marble or Navy/Marble. You can order it with single vision, progressive or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. You will find it in our Elegance collection.

3 colours to choose from

Black. Black is a deep, solid black. It is the safest choice if you only want one pair, and it never looks out of place.

Grey/Marble. Grey/Marble pairs grey with marble. It is cool, modern and understated, and it suits grey or silver hair especially well.

Navy/Marble. Navy/Marble mixes navy and marble. It reads as smart and dark from a distance, with a little more personality up close.

Each colour is shown in the gallery, so you can compare them side by side before you decide.

Shape and style

The upswept outer corners suit round, oval and square faces especially well, giving the face a gentle lift. The fine metal arms keep the weight down and look neat from the side.

The slim metal construction keeps it light and neat, and it is easy for an optician to adjust.

If you want a frame you can put on in the morning and forget about, the Elegance 2069 is a strong choice.

How to wear it

Match the frame colour to something you wear often, such as a favourite scarf or bag, for a pulled-together look. Neutral make-up keeps the focus on your eyes.

Frame size and fit

The 54mm lenses put it at the upper end of medium.

The easiest way to check is against glasses you already love. Most frames show their size inside the arm; if yours are close to these, you are in safe territory.

Lens options for the Elegance 2069

Your optometrist’s prescription will usually tell you which of these you need:

• Single vision: one clear prescription across the whole lens.
• Bifocal: distance on top, a reading segment below.
• Progressive: smooth vision from near to far in one lens, no line.
• Ready readers: off-the-shelf magnification for books and screens.

If your prescription is on the stronger side, a thinner high-index lens keeps the edges neat, and an anti-reflective coating means fewer distracting reflections on screens and at night.

What you need to order

Have your prescription handy before you start. It will list the sphere, cylinder and axis for each eye, and often your PD as well. If your PD is missing, your optometrist can give it to you. Then simply choose your colour and lens type, enter your prescription and add any extras, such as a thinner lens or a coating. You can review everything in your cart before you pay.

How your glasses are made

Every pair is made to order. Our UK optical lab cuts your lenses to your prescription, fits them into your Elegance 2069 and then sends your glasses to you in Australia.

A little care goes a long way

Wipe your lenses with a microfibre cloth rather than the hem of your shirt, keep them in a case when they are in your bag, and never leave them on the dashboard on a hot day. Our lens care guide has a few more habits worth picking up.

FAQs

Is the Elegance 2069 comfortable for all-day wear?

Yes. It is a lightweight frame, and a thinner lens for a stronger prescription keeps the weight down even further.

Who glazes my lenses?

Our own optical lab in the UK. Your lenses are made to your prescription and fitted into the frame before your glasses are sent to you.
