About MADAME

Inspired by the timeless, fresh and feminine flair of Pierre Balmainโ€™s signature Jolie Madame silhouette, these bold frames masterfully meld together two layers of Japanese acetate with one half-rim of beautifully detailed titanium. Just like Pierre Balmainโ€™s finest couture creations, this cat-eye style knows how to perfectly complement the wearer, elegantly framing the eye, accentuating cheekbones and giving a visual lift to each face. Those Balmain Army members who are well-versed in the houseโ€™s history will note that Madameโ€™s delicate decorative patterns, running across the top edge of the frame, are a homage to the strict geometric lines adorning the iconic Haussmannien facฬงade of Balmainโ€™s historic, 75-year-old flagship, on rue Francฬงois Premier.

Understanding frame size

Understanding frame measurements is essential for achieving a precise fit tailored to your preferences. Thanks to a standardized system, finding the right size becomes straightforward.

EYE

40 - 62 MM

This eye measurement is the horizontal width of a single lens. Typically ranging from 40 to 62mm, with the average size of 49 to 51mm. For sunglasses, consider increasing your average by a minimum of two millimeters to account for the larger frames.

BRIDGE

14 - 25 MM

The bridge measurement refers to the gap between the two lenses, with sizes ranging from 14 to 24mm and the typical size falling between 18 and 21mm. For those with a narrower bridge, choosing a frame under 20mm is advisable. Frames equipped with nose pads offer adjustability, ensuring a a better and more comfortable fit.

Temple

120 - 150 MM

Temple length refers to the length of the arms that stretch towards the ears to hold the frame in place. Consider specific temple lengths if your ear placement significantly deviates from the average.The range is between 120 to 150mm, with the average adult size being between 145 and 148mm.
