Saint Laurent Corner Angle SL 790 Sunglasses

Saint Laurent SL 790 Sunglasses

The Saint Laurent SL 790 sunglasses, also known as the Corner Angle, perfectly embody the philosophy of the Parisian house: a clean line, a confident presence, never veering into excess. This square acetate frame model stands as a must-have piece for those who know what they want.

A square frame that structures the face

The square shape of the SL 790 is no coincidence. It brings definition and structure to round or oval faces, which tend to lack sharp angles. Wearing this model adds intensity to the gaze and gives the face an immediately perceptible visual balance. This is what is meant by the right frame choice: one you may not notice at first glance, but that changes everything.

The frame is fully rimmed and crafted from high-quality acetate. This cellulose-based material is prized for its relative lightness, durability, and the richness of finishes it allows. It is also far more comfortable for everyday wear than metal, particularly for those with sensitive skin around the temples.

A unisex model, designed for everyone

The Saint Laurent SL 790 is designed to be worn by both women and men. Its square silhouette with clean angles transcends gender with natural ease. This kind of timeless design, free of superfluous embellishment, is precisely what allows it to remain relevant season after season without ever looking dated. It can be worn just as easily in summer on the beach as on a terrace in autumn or during a city break in Paris or Milan.

Saint Laurent craftsmanship, visible in every detail

Saint Laurent is a house that never compromises on quality. The SL 790 is a fine example: the hinges, the temples, the acetate finishes — every element is crafted with care. Wearing these glasses means embracing the heritage of a Parisian couture house founded in 1961, one that has reinvented elegance with each decade while remaining true to its fundamentals.

The name Corner Angle given to this collection is a direct reference to the geometry of the frame, with its sharply defined corners and right angles that form a clean border around the gaze. This is no minor detail: it is precisely this architectural choice that gives the model its distinctive character.
