About BRIGITTE

Pierre Balmain founded his eponymous house as a Parisian couture address over 75 years agoโ€”and every Balmain creation since Monsieur Balmainโ€™s very first 1945 collection has been built upon the distinctive couture formula that pairs strict construction with the finest artisanal embellishment. Balmain Eyewearโ€™s Brigitte makes the houseโ€™s impressive couture heritage even more clear. The frameโ€™s unique structureโ€” crafted from the finest featherweight Japanese titanium and dense and sleek Japanese acetateโ€”was inspired by the classic cinematic image of a wind-whipped silk scarf worn inside an open cabriolet. The Akoni Group teamโ€™s skillful channeling of the fresh and liberating spirit that has long set apart the collections of both Pierre Balmain and Olivier Rousteing is also underlined by the iconic color combinationsโ€”each based on key Balmainโ€™s tonal pairings.

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.

When considering frame measurements, it's important to focus on three key dimensions: lens width, bridge size, and temple length, all measured in millimeters. These measurements ensure a comfortable and proportional fit that complements your unique facial features and style.

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.
