Cutler and Gross 9389 Classic Optical
70s-Inspired Optical Frame with Cultured Cutler and Gross Character
The Cutler and Gross 9389 Optical balances intelligence, warmth, and understated confidence in a silhouette that feels expressive without ever becoming performative.
Inspired by 1970s square eyewear, the frame carries strong proportions softened by a more relaxed and lived-in elegance. The shape feels confident, but never rigid — allowing personality to remain visible rather than hidden behind minimalism or excessive sharpness.
There’s something unmistakably Cutler and Gross in the balance of the silhouette. The frame feels equally natural in quieter, intellectual settings or somewhere far less restrained later at night. Sophisticated, but never overly polished.
What makes the 9389 Optical especially compelling is its ease. Nothing about the frame feels overworked or designed for attention. It sits naturally on the face, as though it has already belonged to the wearer for years rather than being carefully styled for effect.
Handcrafted in the Cutler and Gross atelier over 264 hours, the silhouette features a refined square construction with an additional facet on the keyhole bridge, designed to create a more comfortable and balanced fit across a wider range of face shapes.
The craftsmanship reveals itself gradually through proportion, subtle detailing, and the quiet precision of the construction rather than obvious luxury signals. Every line feels considered without losing the relaxed personality that gives the frame its charm.
The clear optical lenses keep the expression fully open, reinforcing the more personal and character-driven mood of the silhouette.
Ideal for:
- cultured everyday optical styling
- expressive square silhouettes
- refined creative wardrobes
- wearers looking for optical frames with warmth, personality, and timeless depth
The overall effect feels intelligent, relaxed, and deeply individual.
CUTLER AND GROSS — character becomes elegance when it’s lived-in naturally.

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.
