Green Glasses Frames for Men and Women

They can be surprisingly versatile. If you're new to coloured eyewear, darker greens and olive shades are an easy place to start because the colour can feel quite subtle.

If you already love colourful glasses, brighter green and emerald frames give you the opportunity to make much more of a statement.

Green eyewear covers a broad spectrum. Depending on the collection, you may find dark green, forest, olive, khaki, sage, emerald, bottle green and brighter green frames.

There are also translucent styles that allow light through the material, giving the colour a completely different appearance.

Olive green has a muted, earthy appearance, while emerald tends to be richer and more vibrant.

If you want something subtle, olive is worth exploring. If you'd prefer your glasses to have more visible colour, an emerald or brighter green frame may be more your style.

Sage is a softer, more muted shade of green. On eyewear it can range from a pale grey-green to a slightly deeper natural tone.

It's a good option if you like the idea of green frames but don't necessarily want a strong or particularly bright colour.

Deep forest and bottle green frames can look quite dark from a distance, with their green colour becoming more apparent in brighter or natural light.

They're worth considering if you normally choose darker eyewear but fancy something a little different.

Yes. Women's green glasses range from delicate round and oval frames to cat-eyes, oversized squares and bolder statement shapes.

With so many different shades available, green can be as subtle or expressive as you want it to be.

Absolutely. Men's green glasses can include dark rectangular and square frames, classic rounds, olive styles and more contemporary shapes.

For understated colour, start with a darker forest, bottle or olive green.

Transparent or translucent green glasses are made from material that allows some light to pass through the frame.

Rather than creating a solid block of colour, this gives the green more depth and can make the frame appear lighter. The exact shade can also look slightly different depending on the lighting.

They can. Dark greens may appear almost neutral in lower light, while translucent, emerald and brighter frames can become much more vivid in daylight.

Screens can also display colours slightly differently, so product photography should be treated as a close guide rather than an exact representation of how a shade will appear in every environment.
