Saint Laurent Corner Angle SL 596 DUNE sunglasses: the boldness of Parisian luxury
The Saint Laurent Corner Angle SL 596 DUNE sunglasses are far more than a simple accessory. They embody the spirit of a couture house founded in Paris in the 1960s, led today by Anthony Vaccarello. This oversized model, inspired directly by the Saint Laurent Women's Spring collection, adopts the brand's signature visual code: the sharp angle at the corners of the frame, known as the "Corner Angle". A subtle detail, yet immediately recognisable to connoisseurs.
An acetate frame with a revisited aviator style
The SL 596 DUNE takes on an aviator-inspired silhouette, reinterpreted and amplified in a contemporary spirit. The frame is entirely crafted in acetate, a noble and durable material that gives the glasses both lightness and character. The full-rim structure perfectly frames the large lenses, for a bold and confident visual impact. On each temple, the Saint Laurent logo is laser-engraved — a sign of impeccable finish that authenticates the piece.
This model is designed for both women and men who wish to assert their style with a pair of high-end sunglasses. The available tints are directly inspired by the colourful palette of the Spring collection, making it a model rooted in its era while remaining elegant in the long term.
Details that make all the difference
What sets the SL 596 DUNE apart from other models on the market is the coherence of its design. Every element has been conceived to reflect the Saint Laurent universe: the refined lines, generous proportions, and precise finishes. The laser engraving of the logo on both temples speaks to meticulous craftsmanship. Certain versions of the model also feature the Saint Laurent Paris logo printed on the left lens, further reinforcing the visual identity of the piece.
The bridge measures 14 mm and the temples 145 mm — dimensions designed for comfortable wear across a wide range of face shapes. The lenses measure 58 mm in width, giving this model its generous and assertive look.
