These Yves Saint Laurent glasses (model 2080/S) embody the minimalist and avant-garde spirit that the YSL house has been able to carry since the end of the 1960s.

The architectural minimalism movement was born at the turn of the 2000s, the 2080/S plays on very refined volumes: narrow lenses, tapered rectangular shape, discreet bridge. This clean line recalls the "post-modern" aesthetic of the time, where people preferred quasi-geometric silhouettes rather than overly wide or ornate frames.

  • Brushed metal plates : the slightly satiny surface of the temples echoes the “rock-chic” spirit that Yves Saint Laurent liked to associate with his ready-to-wear collections.

  • Angular temples : The tapered shape, which tapers towards the tip, evokes an almost kinetic silhouette, as if the temples were extending backward. It's a subtle nod to the idea of movement and modernity in design.

  • At a time when many brands were multiplying their embellishments (rhinestones, XXL logos, very thick temples), Yves Saint Laurent opted for sobriety. This bold choice perfectly reflected the founder's vision: to get to the essentials without sacrificing distinction. This gives the 2080/S model an understated elegance that has survived the decades without going out of style.

Detailed description

Monture 100 % italienne, fabriquée dans les ateliers Safilo en Italie, sous licence YSL, modèle 2080/S des années 1990, époque marquée par un retour à une esthétique minimaliste après les ornements excessifs des années 1980.

Ce design rectangulaire étroit, en métal titanium noir, reflète le style discret mais structuré de la mode post‑moderne de la fin du siècle dernier.

La collaboration entre YSL et Safilo, société italienne réputée pour la qualité de fabrication depuis 1934, garantit une monture légère, résistante et précise au niveau des charnières.

Bien que le designer exact ne soit pas mentionné, le modèle s’inscrit dans la ligne d’YSL minimaliste et architecturale : pas de logos apparents, seulement une gravure fine sur la branche. Elle est portée par des icônes urbaines dans les années 1990.

Delivery, returns, exchanges, warranty

Do you ship internationally?

Yes. Vision Janine ships worldwide. Shipping costs and times are specified at the time of ordering.

Can I return a product?

Yes. You have 14 days upon receipt to return the unworn product to us in its original condition. Details are available on the Delivery & Returns page.

How do I know if a frame will fit me?

If the size does not fit you:

Each product sheet details the exact dimensions of the frame (width, height, nose distance, temple length). You can compare these measurements with a pair you already own. Also consider visiting your local optician who will help you adjust the frame to your face (in most cases this is enough even if the size is not exactly right for you). If it really doesn't fit, returns are accepted within 15 days.

If the style doesn't suit you or you've changed your mind:

Returns are accepted within 15 days. So if you change your mind, just send them back!

Can I have corrective lenses fitted?

Yes and no.... Vision Janine only offers non-prescription sunglasses. Our models are designed as fashion accessories with a strong visual identity. However, you can order the frame and visit any optician of your choice to have your Janine glasses fitted and lenses adjusted to your prescription.

What are the guarantees?

Our glasses come with a 3-month warranty against any restoration defects. The sunglasses are brand new and CE certified.

Is there a box?

Yes. Each Janine pair of glasses comes with a matching case, a microfiber cleaning cloth, and a presentation box. If the original case is still in good condition, it will be delivered with the frame in addition to ours, but unfortunately, this isn't always the case...

About

What does Vision Janine offer?

Vision Janine offers high-end vintage sunglasses, carefully refurbished in France. Each piece is unique, selected for its style, rarity, or history.

What is a refurbished vintage eyeglass?

This is an authentic frame from years past (usually from the 60s to 2000s), cleaned, fully restored for a complete refurbishment and fitted with new "optician" quality sun lenses, i.e. the same quality of lenses as at a high-end optician.

Are the glasses authentic?

Yes. All our frames are original and carefully selected from collectors, former opticians, or forgotten stock. Authenticity is verified before being put up for sale.

Where do your glasses come from?

Our models come from all over the world: France, Italy, Germany, Japan... always with a focus on quality and originality. The origin is always specified.

Where and by whom are your glasses restored?

The restoration is entirely carried out in France, in our workshop in Villefranche sur Saône near Lyon, by Adèle, co-founder of Janine, trained by eyewear artisans specializing in vintage and the best craftsmen in France. This process includes cleaning, polishing, adjustment (redressing) and replacement of lenses, as well as the replacement of consumables (nose pads, sleeves, screws, etc.). It is a demanding process that takes between 1 hour (minimum) and 3 hours for the most complex or damaged frames. Today, Adèle's experience with vintage frames makes her one of the few specialists in France in the restoration and repair of eyewear.

Are glasses eco-friendly?

Absolutely. By repurposing existing frames rather than producing new ones, we contribute to circular, elegant, and environmentally friendly fashion.

How are your prices set?

Our prices reflect the rarity of the model, the brand, the original condition, the complexity of the restoration and the quality of the materials (acetate, Optyl, gold metal, etc.).

The complexity of solar glass can also impact the price.

How do you choose your models?

The curation we offer is studied according to current trends.
We prioritize pieces with remarkable designs from iconic fashion houses or independent eyewear makers. Each model is selected for its aesthetic potential, comfort, and good structural condition.

Can I reserve a model?

We do not yet offer a reservation service. Since our models are unique, we recommend that you don't wait too long if you fall in love with one.

Do you buy glasses again?

This can happen, especially for rare and authentic vintage models, but we prefer to use our own supply networks. If you have one or more frames to offer, you can always send us photos at contact@visionjanine.com
