Step into glamorous London luxury with our Jimmy Choo medium sunglasses collection — a curated line-up of 29 feminine, sparkle-laced styles that carry the same red-carpet spirit as the house's famous heels.

Every pair sold at Ardor Eyewear is genuine, supplied as an authorised UK stockist, and shipped free across the UK.
The glamour of Jimmy Choo medium sunglasses
Jimmy Choo built its name on occasion dressing — the shoe you wear when you want to be seen — and that philosophy carries straight into its eyewear. These Jimmy Choo medium sunglasses are designed to catch the light: think glitter woven through the acetate, micro-crystals along the temples, star-shaped cut-outs and metallic JC lettering. The medium fit is the label's sweet spot, flattering the majority of faces without overwhelming finer features. Styles in this collection include references such as the JC5012, JC5007, JC5003, JC5014, the unisex-leaning JC5006U and the metal JC4012, spanning glossy squares, soft cat-eyes and rounded silhouettes.

Signature design codes: sparkle, stars and glitter
Where some brands whisper, Jimmy Choo shimmers. The house's design language leans into feminine embellishment: laminated glitter acetate that glints as you move, crystal-set temples, and playful star and lattice motifs that appear on hinges and end tips. Colourways favour smoky greys, blush and nude tones, warm havana, rose-gold and champagne metals, and classic black with a metallic twist. Gradient lenses are a Jimmy Choo hallmark — darker at the top, lighter toward the cheek — which both looks elegant and keeps your eyes visible behind the glass. It is a look built for photographs, events and sunny city days alike.
Shapes in the collection
Medium Jimmy Choo sunglasses cover the flattering feminine shapes. Cat-eye and softly upswept styles lift the cheekbones and are ideal for round and heart-shaped faces — see how the silhouette works across our dedicated cat-eye sunglasses range. Squared and rectangular frames add a modern, structured edge that suits rounder faces, while rounded and oval styles soften angular features. Because every option here is medium, the proportions stay balanced whatever shape you choose.
Lens technology and UV protection
Glamour is nothing without protection, and Jimmy Choo sunglasses deliver full UV defence. Every pair blocks harmful UVA and UVB rays, shielding your eyes and the delicate skin around them. Many styles feature gradient tints for that soft, flattering fade, while others use solid or mirrored lenses for higher contrast in bright conditions. If you spend time driving or near water, ask about polarised sunglasses, which cut blinding glare from reflective surfaces for clearer, more comfortable vision. Tints range from lighter, everyday shades to deeper smoke lenses for the strongest sun.
Prescription sunglasses at Ardor
Love a Jimmy Choo frame but need vision correction? Most styles in this collection can be glazed with your prescription in our UK lab — including single-vision and varifocal options, plus tinted and light-reactive lenses. That means you get the sparkle and the clarity in one pair. Explore how it works via our prescription sunglasses collection. Prescription orders take around 7–10 working days for glazing before they are dispatched.
Materials and craftsmanship
Jimmy Choo sunglasses are made predominantly from premium cellulose acetate, the plant-based material that holds those glitter laminates and rich translucent colours so beautifully. Acetate feels warm and substantial and can be adjusted for a precise fit. Metal-fronted styles such as the JC4012 introduce slimmer, jewellery-like profiles in gold and rose-gold tones, frequently finished with crystal accents at the temples or brow bar. Sprung hinges on many designs add flex and longevity, while carefully weighted frames keep even the more decorative styles comfortable for all-day wear.
Who they're for and how to style them
These are unapologetically feminine sunglasses, made for anyone who wants their eyewear to be part of the outfit rather than an afterthought. They shine at weddings, on holiday, at festivals and for everyday city glamour. Style crystal-temple cat-eyes with tailoring and gold jewellery for an elevated daytime look, or let a glitter-fleck square frame do the talking against a simple summer dress. Blush and nude frames flatter warmer skin tones and pair with soft neutrals; classic black with a metallic edge is the failsafe that works with everything. For a coordinated eyewear wardrobe, match your sunglasses with optical frames from our glasses range.
Caring for your Jimmy Choo sunglasses
Embellished frames deserve a little care to keep their sparkle. Clean the lenses with the supplied microfibre cloth and a spray of lens cleaner rather than a shirt hem, which can scratch coatings and dull crystal accents. Rinse away grit before wiping, store the sunglasses in their case when not worn, and avoid leaving them on a hot car dashboard, as heat can loosen glitter laminates and warp acetate over time. A quick wipe of the temples keeps the metallic and crystal detailing gleaming for years.

Frequently asked questions
Are Jimmy Choo medium sunglasses suitable for smaller faces?
Medium is the most universally flattering size, but if you have a particularly petite face you may prefer the smaller end of the range. Check the lens width printed inside a frame you already own to compare.
Do Jimmy Choo sunglasses offer full UV protection?
Yes. Every pair blocks 100% of harmful UVA and UVB rays, protecting your eyes and the surrounding skin.
Can I get Jimmy Choo sunglasses with my prescription?
Most frames here can be glazed with prescription lenses — single-vision or varifocal, and tinted or light-reactive if you wish. Add your prescription at checkout and our UK lab handles the rest.
What is a gradient lens?
A gradient lens is darker at the top and fades to lighter at the bottom. It shields your eyes from overhead sun while keeping them visible, and it is one of Jimmy Choo's signature elegant finishes.
