Kate Spade DAVINA vs. Payton: Which Square Frame Is Right for You?
Both the DAVINA and Payton are popular square acetate frames from Kate Spade at nearly identical price points, but they offer distinctly different aesthetics.
The DAVINA leans into vintage inspiration with its subtle wingtips, unique saddlebridge detail, and decorative temple bands. It's a pure acetate frame with more angular, defined square edges—ideal if you want a frame that adds structure to your face and makes a bit more of a statement. The horn-rimmed heritage gives it a sophisticated, retro-intellectual vibe that works beautifully in professional settings while still feeling fashion-forward.
The Payton, by contrast, features softer, more rounded square edges and incorporates metal rim accents for a mixed-material look. The metal cores inside the slim plastic temples provide a different kind of comfort, and the small spade detail at the browline offers a more understated brand signature. If you prefer a gentler, more approachable square frame with a touch of metal detailing, the Payton delivers that softer femininity.
Choose the DAVINA if: You love vintage-inspired details, want more angular definition, and prefer a pure acetate frame with distinctive design elements.
Choose the Payton if: You prefer softer edges, like the look of mixed materials (acetate and metal), and want a more understated square frame.
Both frames are prescription-ready, offer excellent Kate Spade quality, and come in multiple color options—so your choice really comes down to whether you want the DAVINA's vintage character or the Payton's softer, mixed-material approach.
