Karl Lagerfeld KL6170 vs KL6132: Square vs Cat-Eye
Both the KL6170 and KL6132 are women's acetate eyeglasses from Karl Lagerfeld, but they take different style approaches. The KL6170 features an oversized square shape with bold, modern lines and a striking metal cut-out logo on the temples. It's designed for women who want a contemporary, fashion-forward look that works in both professional and casual settings.
The KL6132, on the other hand, embraces a cat-eye silhouette with a more vintage-inspired aesthetic. At $93.75, it's slightly more affordable than the KL6170's $105.85 price point. The KL6132 offers four color combinations with marble effects, while the KL6170 provides five solid and tortoise options including violet, nude, dark tortoise, white, and black.
For fit, the KL6170 has a 53mm lens width with a 17mm bridge, while the KL6132 offers a 54mm lens width but a wider 19mm bridge — making it potentially better for those who need more nose clearance. The KL6170's oversized square shape is more universally flattering, especially for round and oval faces, while the cat-eye shape of the KL6132 works best on heart-shaped and square faces.
Choose the KL6170 if: You want a bold, contemporary square frame with maximum versatility, the signature metal logo detail, and a modern oversized look that flatters most face shapes.
Choose the KL6132 if: You prefer vintage-inspired cat-eye styling, need a wider bridge fit, want to save about $12, and appreciate marble color effects over solid finishes.
