Saint Laurent SL900 HOWL Sunglasses
Oversized Square Sunglasses with Sharp Saint Laurent Glamour
The Saint Laurent SL 900 Howl combines oversized square proportions, sculptural acetate construction, and sharp architectural lines in a silhouette that feels bold, glamorous, and unmistakably Saint Laurent.
Designed with a strong oversized front and clean geometric structure, the frame creates immediate presence on the face while maintaining the disciplined restraint that defines the house. The square silhouette feels powerful and fashion-driven, but the controlled proportions keep it refined rather than excessive.
In transparent beige acetate, the mood shifts beautifully. Light moves naturally through the translucent construction, softening the stronger lines of the frame and giving the oversized silhouette a warmer, more luminous elegance. The contrast between the soft transparency and the sharper structure creates the tension that makes the Howl collection feel so distinctive.
Crafted in Japan from premium acetate, the SL 900 Howl features a hand-polished finish that enhances the clarity and dimensionality of the silhouette. The thicker construction gives the frame a more sculptural and luxurious presence, while slim temples and subtle Saint Laurent detailing preserve the clean flow of the design.
The tinted lenses provide full UVA and UVB protection while grounding the softness of the acetate with a warmer, lighter contrast. Combined with the oversized square shape, they create a composed and highly fashion-oriented visual identity.
What makes the SL 900 Howl especially compelling is its balance between glamour and control. The silhouette is bold and instantly recognisable, yet every line remains clean, precise, and intentionally restrained.
Ideal for:
- oversized luxury styling
- bold square silhouettes
- fashion-forward monochrome wardrobes
- wearers looking for strong Saint Laurent sunglasses with sculptural presence
The overall effect feels luminous, sharp, and impossibly confident — oversized glamour carried with complete ease.
SAINT LAURENT — sharp glamour softened through light and proportion.

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.
