Lindley Style
The eyeglasses have oval or tear-drop shaped lenses that lend you an award-winning look that’s both mysterious and alluring. This collection features the beauty of the ‘Cat-eye’ design that adds a graceful appeal and contemporary touch to the eyewear. With smooth curves and discreetly defined lines, Lindley will turn heads everywhere, from runways to streets.
Lindley Fit
A rod-like bridge adorns the eyewear, adding balance to the lenses while resting on the level of your eyes. The slim yet curved bridge unlocks the focus on the heart of your eyebrows. Separate and crystalline nose pads are fitted with screws to provide an efficient grip with no pressure. Broader lenses ensure viewing comfort. Although cat-eye glasses effectively complement round, heart, oval, and diamond faces, the series comes in a medium fit that adds dimension to almost all face shapes.
Like most eyewear brands, measurements for Warby Parker glasses can be found on the inside of the temple arm. There you’ll find lens width (52 mm), bridge (19 mm), and temple length (140 mm). If you already have a pair that you like, you can compare it to those measurements.
- Frame width 137 mm: The horizontal diameter of the full frame width, and it’s the primary way we determine fit. (Note: You will not find this number on your glasses.)
- Lens width 52 mm: The horizontal diameter of one lens.
- Bridge 19 mm: The width of the bridge section.
- Temple length 140 mm: The length of the entire temple arm, from the front of the frame to the tip.
- Made from hand-polished cellulose acetate and stainless steel
- Akulon-coated screws for durability
Lindley Design Details
A classically feline silhouette wrapped in an unconventional framework makes these eyeglasses stand out. The top rim aligns with the natural curves of your brows with a slight upward inclination, thus highlighting your eyes. The round-bottom rim sits comfortably on your cheekbones, thus smoothening your angular traits. Well-pronounced end pieces impart a clean and sleek cat-eye look on your face. Metallic temple arms add a seamless texture to the design while extending behind your ears. Polished metal hinges look aesthetically appealing and gleaming. What’s most striking about the eyewear is its mixed-material construction where an ultra-light stainless steel frame is topped with an expressive acetate overlay. Metal-accented acetate eyepiece flares outward at the top, making the glasses charming with an angular style. With its stylish blend of acetate and metal design, Lindley instantly adds an artful flair to your look.
Lindley Quality
The frames are made using custom cellulose acetate and stainless steel. Cellulose acetate is a plant-based and biodegradable material. Acetate frames are very flexible, durable, hypoallergenic, and environmentally friendly. It also helps preserve the style, colors, and patterns of Lindley over time. Stainless steel glasses are lightweight and robust, making them more resilient than plastic glasses. Akulon-coated screws and barrel hinges enhance the durability of the glasses. The eyewear is hand-buffed repeatedly using a polishing wheel to achieve a glossy finish. The lightweight spectacles are easy to wear throughout the day.
Lindley Price and Availability of Colors
The Lindley Collection comes in two attention-grabbing colors, including Pearled Tortoise and Rose Water, that will surely turn heads. For a pocket-friendly price of $145, this unisex design suits those with a bold sense of style.
Pearled Tortoise with Lilac Silver
Pearls carry a pale off-white tint, influenced by the exterior covering of the shell which is known as a Mollusk lip. This variant has an ivory shade with undertones of silver, rose, and beige. The glistening, creamy hues of Pearl with freckles of classic golden tortoiseshells color the acetate overlay and temple tips of the frame. This exotic blend adds a striking touch to the eyewear. Pastel hues of Lilac amalgamate with the glistening sheen of Silver to cover the metal rims and temple arms of the frame. This beautiful and somber mix creates a harmonious accent on the eyeglass. Give your style a subtle touch of glamor with Lindley in Pearled Tortoise and Lilac Silver.
Rose Water with Riesling
The colors of rose petals, when slowly released into colorless water, acquire a delightful rose-tinted blush pink hue. Riesling, being a white wine, has pale straw color with undertones of faint yellow. The calming and soothing hues of Rose Water color the acetate overlay and temple tips of the frame. Rich shades of Riesling cover the metallic rims and temple arms of the eyewear. This blissful combination graces your face with a beguiling charm. Shine like a Pearl with Lindley in Rose Water and Riesling.
Lindley Summary
Warby Parker is a socially responsible company that gives back to the community with its “Buy a Pair, Give a Pair” initiative. The brand makes stylish, reasonably priced eyepieces and has recently released the Lindley Series. These eyeglasses are featured in the ‘Crystal Overlay Collection’ which is an inventive collaboration between Warby Parker and Chloe Sevigny. Lindley has a cat-eye design that first grabbed people’s attention in the 1930s and then came back in style in the 1960s. Reese Witherspoon has worn this nostalgic style in a similar shaped eyewear during her public appearances to evoke classic vibes.
