Collection: Chloe Women's Cat Eye Glasses

Our Chloe womens cat eye glasses collection gathers the French house's most flattering optical frames into one place, so you can find a genuine designer prescription frame with that unmistakable upswept silhouette. Every pair here is an authentic Chloe frame, supplied as an authorised UK stockist, and almost all can be glazed with your prescription before we post them to your door. From the softly lifted CH0238O to the refined CH0241O and the bolder CH0336OA, this edit is built for women who want the romance and polish that Chloe has stood for since Gaby Aghion founded the maison in Paris in 1952.

Why Chloe womens cat eye glasses are so flattering

The cat-eye is one of the few frame shapes that does genuine work for your face. The outer corners of the front lift upward, which draws the eye up and out, mimics a subtle brow lift, and adds definition to the cheekbones. On a prescription frame this is especially welcome, because it keeps everyday glasses looking considered rather than purely functional. Chloe interprets the shape with a lighter, more feminine hand than most, so the lift is elegant instead of theatrical.

Within the collection you will notice two broad moods. There are gentle, boardroom-friendly cat-eyes with a soft angle and warm Havana or brown acetate, and there are more expressive designs in burgundy, blue and layered tones for those who treat their glasses as the centrepiece of an outfit. Sizes such as the 53mm CH0241O suit petite-to-average faces, while wider fronts give taller or fuller faces the proportion they need.

Choosing the right Chloe womens cat eye glasses for your face

Cat-eye frames are widely considered the most universally flattering shape, but a little matching goes a long way:

  • Round faces: the upward angles add structure and length, balancing soft curves. Look for a more pronounced cat-eye tip.
  • Square or angular faces: a rounded, softer cat-eye takes the edge off a strong jaw and reintroduces curve.
  • Heart-shaped faces: a classic pairing, as the frame echoes the natural line of the face; keep the lower rim slim.
  • Oval faces: almost anything works, so choose by colour and boldness rather than shape correction.

Fit matters as much as shape. Check that the frame width sits close to the width of your face, that the arms reach your ears without pressing, and that the bridge holds the frame without sliding. If you already own glasses that fit well, the three numbers printed on the arm (lens width, bridge, temple length) are the easiest way to compare.

Materials and craftsmanship

Most cat-eye designs in this collection are cut from Italian acetate, a plant-based material prized for depth of colour and a warm, comfortable feel against the skin. Acetate lets Chloe build those rich Havana marbles and translucent burgundies that a printed finish simply cannot match. Metal detailing, delicate temple logos and hand-finished tips add the couture touches you expect at this level. If you prefer a slimmer, more minimal look, browse the wider range of Chloe optical styles alongside these cat-eyes to compare acetate against lightweight metal.

Prescription lenses at Ardor Eyewear

Nearly every frame here can be made up to your exact prescription. When you order, add your lens type and we will glaze the frame in our UK lab. Options include:

  • Single vision for distance or reading.
  • Varifocal for seamless near-to-far vision in one lens.
  • Bifocal with a defined reading segment.
  • Blue-light filtering for long days at a screen.
  • Tinted or photochromic lenses that darken outdoors.

Prescription orders typically take around 7–10 working days for glazing before dispatch, and UK delivery is free. If you would like to explore lens choices more broadly first, our full designer glasses collection and the focused women's prescription glasses frames edit are good starting points. Readers looking for off-the-shelf magnification instead should see our women's reading glasses.

Styling your Chloe cat-eye glasses

Because the cat-eye reads as intentional and a touch retro, it pairs beautifully with tailoring, a sharp blazer or a silk blouse for work, then transitions easily to weekend knits and denim. Warm Havana tones flatter most skin tones and hair colours, while burgundy and blue acetates are a considered way to add colour near the face without committing to bold makeup. Many women keep a cat-eye optical frame for everyday and a matching sunglass for outdoors — you can see the sunnier side of the house in our Chloe sunglasses range, and compare the shape against our cat-eye sunglasses.

Caring for acetate frames

To keep your frames looking their best, clean the lenses with a microfibre cloth and a spot of lens spray or mild soapy water — never a dry tissue, which can scratch. Store them in the supplied case, avoid leaving them on a hot car dashboard, and bring them in for a free adjustment if the fit loosens over time. Well-kept acetate holds its colour and shape for years.
