Saint Laurent SL900 HOWL Sunglasses
Oversized Square Sunglasses in Deep Brown Translucent Acetate
The Saint Laurent SL 900 Howl takes on a darker and more cinematic character in deep brown translucent acetate, transforming the oversized square silhouette into something richer, warmer, and even more sculptural.
The bold oversized structure remains sharp and highly fashion-driven, with strong geometric lines that create immediate presence on the face. In this colourway, however, the translucent deep brown acetate softens the sharper edges slightly, giving the silhouette more depth, warmth, and fluidity without reducing its impact.
Light moves subtly through the polished acetate, revealing layers of tone throughout the frame and preventing the oversized construction from feeling visually heavy. The result feels more atmospheric and dimensional than a solid dark frame while still maintaining the unmistakable Saint Laurent tension underneath.
Crafted in Japan from premium acetate, the SL 900 Howl features a hand-polished finish that enhances the richness and clarity of the translucent material. The thicker sculptural construction gives the silhouette a luxurious weight and presence, while slim temples and discreet Saint Laurent detailing preserve the clean architecture of the design.
The dark tinted lenses provide full UVA and UVB protection while reinforcing the cooler monochromatic mood of the frame. Against the warmer brown acetate, they create a strong contrast between softness and sharpness that defines the character of this version.
What makes the deep brown colourway especially compelling is its balance between bold glamour and restraint. The oversized square silhouette feels dramatic and highly expressive, yet the translucent finish keeps it refined, wearable, and instinctively elegant.
Ideal for:
- oversized fashion styling
- bold monochrome wardrobes
- sculptural statement sunglasses
- wearers looking for strong Saint Laurent silhouettes with richer translucent tones
The overall effect feels warm, powerful, and unmistakably Saint Laurent — oversized glamour with a darker instinct underneath.
SAINT LAURENT — sculptural boldness refined through shadow, warmth, and light.

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.
