Tura expands its re-mastered Lulu Guinness collection with new cat-eye eyewear. In keeping with the Lulu Guinness DNA, the new ophthalmic styles provide a modern, dramatic and flirty update to the popular Cat Eye shape trend. The frames feature custom iconic prints from the designer’s handbag collection, combining luxurious laminate materials and engravings to flatter a variety of women’s faces. While these new models are bold, they are still very wearable.
“The Lulu Guinness brand is known for combining various viewpoints into a cohesive whole, and the latest models are no exception,” says Tura Inc.’s Vice President of Brand Management Jennifer Coppel. “While the front shapes are very retro with a striking attitude, they maintain Lulu’s iconic sophistication and refinement.”

The Lulu Guinness woman who seeks a sleek Cat Eye should look no further.

Petite Pretty Woman: Style L763- This petite frame makes a dramatic and mischievous statement. Upon first glance, the oval lens shape set in a stainless steel flat metal front is subdued and romantic. However, Lulu injects her DNA into this style by adding a sassy Cat Eye corner and a retro coining texture on the brow that is enameled with a contrast color. The rich horn and tortoise acetate temples artfully blend with the metal front hue. The classic jewel-tone color palette marries well with Lulu’s romantic, sexy and mischievous viewpoint. Colors include Black, Brown, and Burgundy.
