M 161 Oval Sunglasses
Sunglasses with Refined Saint Laurent Minimalism
The Saint Laurent M161 combines slim oval proportions, polished acetate construction, and clean lines in a silhouette that feels refined, fashion-driven, and effortlessly controlled.
Designed with a narrow oval shape that sits close to the face, the frame creates a softer and more fluid expression than Saint Laurent’s sharper rectangular silhouettes while maintaining the same disciplined minimalism. The elongated curves give the sunglasses a sleek and instinctive feel without appearing overly retro or exaggerated.
Crafted from premium acetate, the M161 features a polished finish that enhances the smooth flow of the silhouette and the clarity of its proportions. The lightweight balanced structure keeps the frame comfortable for everyday wear while preserving its strong visual identity.
The tinted lenses provide full UV protection and reinforce the darker monochromatic mood associated with Saint Laurent eyewear. Combined with the slim oval structure, they create a composed and understated visual character that feels especially strong in darker colourways.
Subtle Saint Laurent signature detailing at the temples remains integrated naturally into the design, allowing the silhouette itself to remain the focus.
What distinguishes the M161 is its restraint. The frame creates impact through proportion, fit, and attitude rather than oversized styling or decorative elements.
Ideal for:
- slim oval styling
- Fit for small to medium face with more elongated shape
- fashion-forward everyday sunglasses
- wearers looking for softer Saint Laurent silhouettes with narrow proportions
The overall effect feels sleek, nocturnal, and naturally confident.

Size and Fit
I understand the importance of a proper fitting frame. Not every frame fits every face, which is why we have a wide selection of frame sizes to choose from.
There are no rules – just guidelines we suggest to help you find frames that not only look great but fit perfectly.
HOW WE SEE YOU
Size definitely matters. We determine size by the width of your face. We offer multiple sizes so that you can find the right frame for your face.
If you already wear glasses, we recommend looking at your current pair as a size reference. If you still have doubt we are here to help you with professional advice.
BRIDGE – INTERNATIONAL OR ALTERNATIVE/ASIAN FITTING
Acetate nose pads: Made from Italian or Japanese acetate. Comfortable, classic fit. Recommended for those who prefer the look of acetate.
Metal nose pads: Made from silicone or ceramic. Soft, flexible, anti-allergic. Recommended for those needing additional support for less prominent nose bridges or more prominent cheekbones.
FIND YOUR FACE SHAPE
Oval
Balanced and slightly narrow, the oval face is a canvas for experimentation. Almost any silhouette will look good on you. Luxury lies in the choice.
Heart
Wide forehead, high cheekbones and a narrow jawline. This shape is expressive and romantic. Choose a sharp-edged or gently curved cat-eye shape or a balanced aviator shape that softens the contrast and emphasizes the proportions.
Square
A strong jawline, higher forehead, and symmetrical brow line characterize this sculptural face. Choose rounded or elliptical frames to soften the angularity and enhance natural strength with graceful restraint.
Rectangle
Long and slender, with delicate lines. Here, it is worth choosing frames that give width and dimension to create harmony. Oversized or deep-set profiles bring visual balance to the more elongated shape.
Triangle
Defined by a more pronounced jawline, a finer forehead, and an elegant contrast between cheekbones. Choose round or square frames with sharp lines that harmoniously balance the proportions.
Round
A full face and delicate contours radiate warmth and symmetry. In contrast, square frames elongate and define the face.
There are no rules – just guidelines. Explore, get inspired and choose frames that make you feel confident, happy and most importantly, yourself.
