Bottega Veneta BV1277S

BV1277S: shape and build

Seen front on, this is a geometric front with angled edges. It has a full rim all the way round each lens. The frame sits on a plain single bridge, and the nose rest is part of the frame. Our supplier lists the frame as acetate. Acetate is the plant-based plastic that most designer frames are cut and polished from sheet; it holds deep colour and an optician can re-adjust it with heat. It has acetate temples with a metal plaque at the hinge. The branding runs along the outside of the temple. The detail that stands out is the gold metal plaque on temples. Colour 001 is how Bottega Veneta labels this version.

How it fits

The size is 57-17-140: lens width, bridge width and temple length in millimetres. The lens width of 57 mm is large for a sunglasses frame. Frames ship as the maker boxed them, without adjustment, and a local optician can fine-tune the fit.

Lens colour and finish

Grey lenses are fitted. Grey is the neutral tint: it dims light evenly without shifting colours. An even, flat tint. The supplier's data carries no polarization or UV rating for this pair, so we claim none.

Same frame, other colourways

The BV1277S is also listed here as 003 (Green with green lenses). Shape and size are the same; only the finish changes.

What you get, and how it ships

New stock, not display pieces: each pair comes sealed in Bottega Veneta's packaging with the brand's case and cloth where supplied. It is packed by our supplier and shipped free anywhere in the US, usually one to two business days after the order, with a tracking number sent to you. Change your mind within 30 days and send it back unworn in its box; the return label we email is deducted from the refund. A defect, wrong item or damage on the way is returned free if reported within 7 days.
