Balenciaga BB0113O vs. Other Everyday Collection Frames
Choosing between Balenciaga eyeglasses often comes down to how much frame presence you want. The BB0113O sits at the minimalist end of the spectrum—rimless, lightweight, and designed to disappear on your face. But if you're considering other options in the Everyday collection, here's how they stack up.
BB0113O vs. BB0104O: Rimless vs. Vintage D-Frame
The Balenciaga Everyday BB0104O takes a completely different approach. It's a full-rim acetate D-frame inspired by 1980s opulent aesthetics, with the same signature BB logo folding hinges but in a golden finish. The BB0104O is heavier, more durable, and makes a stronger vintage statement. It's also about $20–25 less expensive.
If you want frames that feel like they're barely there and work in any setting, the BB0113O wins. If you prefer a retro vibe with more structural support and don't mind the extra weight, the BB0104O is the better choice. The BB0104O also comes in more color options, including a seasonal milky pink that's not available in the rimless model.
BB0113O vs. BB0117O: Minimalist vs. Aviator
The Balenciaga Everyday BB0117O is a full-rim metal pilot frame with a double bridge and rubberized logo bars on the temples. It's part of the "Tag" line, inspired by anti-theft tags used in retail. The BB0117O has a more masculine, angular shape and is marketed as a unisex frame, whereas the BB0113O skews more feminine with its oversized square lenses.
The BB0117O is also less expensive ($227.81–$244.56) and offers more traditional styling. If you want a navigator shape with Balenciaga's design language, it's a solid alternative. But it doesn't have the same architectural purity or lightweight feel as the rimless BB0113O.
BB0113O vs. BB0312O: Minimalist vs. Maximalist
The Balenciaga BB0312O is the opposite of the BB0113O in almost every way. It's a bold, squared cat-eye frame from the "Dynasty" collection—full-rim acetate, dramatic angles, and a strong fashion-forward presence. The price is similar ($256.69–$264.45), but the aesthetic couldn't be more different.
If you want eyeglasses that make a statement and don't mind the extra weight, the BB0312O delivers. But if you prefer subtlety and comfort, the rimless BB0113O is the clear winner. The BB0312O is also more gender-specific, designed primarily for women, while the BB0113O's minimalist design works for anyone.
Which Should You Choose?
The BB0113O is the best choice if you prioritize comfort, versatility, and a barely-there aesthetic. It's the lightest option, works in any setting, and lets your face—not your frames—do the talking. Just be prepared to handle them with a bit more care than full-rim alternatives and invest in impact-resistant lenses for long-term durability.
