FAQs

Are cat eye glasses still in style?

Absolutely. Cat eye glasses remain one of the most distinctive and enduring eyewear shapes. The style has evolved from its 1950s and 1960s origins into a versatile everyday frame that works equally well with casual and dressed-up looks. From subtle lifts to bold, dramatic sweeps, today's women's cat eye glasses offer something for every taste. JOIUSS™ frames combine vintage inspiration with modern wearability, so they can be worn with confidence today and for years to come.

What are the best cat eye glasses for women?

The best women's cat eye glasses depend on your face shape, personal style, and whether you need prescription lenses. At JOIUSS™, our most popular styles for women are the Rita (a classic, versatile everyday frame), the Maryloo (bold and angular for a confident edge), and the Glimmer (a touch of sparkle for glamorous occasions). All styles are available with prescription lenses including single vision, progressive, reading, and blue light options. Browse the full collection above to find your perfect pair.

What face shape suits cat eye glasses?

Cat eye glasses are incredibly versatile and flattering for many face shapes. They work exceptionally well to balance and add definition to round, oval, and heart-shaped faces by drawing attention upwards and outwards. The upswept corners provide a natural 'lifting' effect. For square or angular faces, softer, more rounded cat eye styles — like the Rita or Lana — can help to soften stronger features. Visit our Cat Eye Glasses Face Shape Guide for a full breakdown.

Can I get prescription cat eye glasses from JOIUSS™?

Absolutely. All JOIUSS™ vintage cat eye glasses are designed to accommodate a wide range of prescription lenses. Using our Intelligent Lens Selector, you can easily add single vision, progressive, reading, or blue light filtering lenses. We also offer high-index lens upgrades for stronger prescriptions, ensuring your frames remain lightweight and elegant. Simply select your frame and follow the prompts to add your prescription details.

Do cat eye glasses look good on round faces?

Yes — cat eye glasses are one of the most recommended styles for round faces. The angular, upswept corners create a natural lifting effect that adds definition and structure to softer, rounder features. The contrast between the curved face shape and the angular frame creates a visually elongating effect. Styles like the Rita and Maryloo are particularly popular choices for round faces.

Are JOIUSS™ cat eye glasses suitable for sunglasses?

Yes, many of our vintage-inspired cat eye frames can be fitted with high-quality tinted or polarized sunglass lenses. This allows you to transform your favorite cat eye style into a chic and protective pair of sunglasses, perfect for sunny days. Our sunglass lenses offer 100% UV protection, safeguarding your eyes from harmful rays while maintaining your impeccable style. Look for the sunglass lens options when customizing your frame.

What materials are JOIUSS™ cat eye frames made from?

At JOIUSS™, we pride ourselves on using premium, durable, and lightweight materials to ensure both comfort and longevity for our retro cat eye glasses. Our frames are typically crafted from high-quality acetate, a plant-based plastic known for its rich colors, hypoallergenic properties, and ability to be polished to a high sheen. We also incorporate robust metal components for hinges and structural integrity, this ensures your vintage cat eye glasses frames maintain their structure and finish for years to come.

How do JOIUSS™ original design cat eye glasses differ from other brands?

Our commitment to original design is what truly sets JOIUSS™ apart. Unlike many brands that follow fast fashion trends or replicate existing styles, each JOIUSS™ cat eye frame is conceived and developed in-house. We draw deep inspiration from authentic vintage eyewear archives, meticulously reinterpreting classic silhouettes with a modern sensibility. This ensures that when you choose JOIUSS™, you're not just buying a pair of glasses, but a unique piece of eyewear art that reflects genuine craftsmanship and a distinctive aesthetic.

How should I care for my JOIUSS™ cat eye glasses?

To ensure your JOIUSS™ cat eye glasses remain in pristine condition, we recommend regular cleaning with a microfiber cloth and a gentle lens cleaning spray. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as these can damage the lenses and frame. When not wearing your glasses, store them in their protective case to prevent scratches and accidental damage. Regular maintenance will help preserve their beauty and extend their lifespan.

What is your return and exchange policy for cat eye frames?

We want you to be completely delighted with your JOIUSS™ cat eye frames. If for any reason you are not satisfied with your purchase, we offer a hassle-free return and exchange policy within 30 days of receipt.
