The square
The house’s best-known pair: a wide, squared acetate frame that sits flat on the face, in black, tortoise, umber and light Havana. It is the pair that reads as Totême across a street.
The oval and the round
The oval is the narrow, retro fashion pair in black and tortoise; the round in silver is the wire-rimmed one.
The classic, the regular and the navigator
The classic is the softened square in black, Havana, tortoise and umber; the regular is the slimmer rectangle; the navigator is the aviator in bark. These are the everyday pairs.
Fit
One size, acetate, medium width. The square sits wide and suits a longer face; the oval and regular suit a smaller one. The temples carry the house name.
Care
Wipe with the cloth in the case, keep them in it, and keep acetate out of a hot car.
