The MAX & CO 5078 Eyeglasses bring contemporary Italian design to your everyday eyewear with a bold butterfly shape that's both fashion-forward and flattering. Since 1986, MAX & CO has been inspiring women to express their personality through accessible, on-trend style, and these frames deliver exactly that—a modern silhouette with detail-driven femininity.
Butterfly Shape That Flatters
The butterfly frame features upswept outer edges that naturally draw attention to your eyes and create a subtle lifting effect on the cheekbones. This shape works particularly well for oval, heart-shaped, and square faces, softening angular features while adding visual interest. The generous lens area provides excellent coverage and accommodates progressive or multifocal prescriptions comfortably, making these frames as functional as they are stylish.
Premium Acetate Construction
These frames are made from cellulose acetate, a plant-based material that's lightweight, durable, and hypoallergenic. Unlike conventional injection-molded plastic, acetate is constructed from layered sheets that are cut, formed, and polished—a lengthier process that produces a higher-quality product. The result is a frame that's flexible enough to withstand daily wear, comfortable for all-day use, and resistant to breakage. Acetate also retains its color beautifully over time, so your frames won't fade or chip like cheaper plastic alternatives.
Prescription-Ready & Versatile
The MAX & CO 5078 comes prescription-ready with a full-rim design that securely holds your lenses. Available in three distinct colors—Shiny Bordeaux (069), Havana/Other (056), and Shiny Black (001)—you can choose the finish that best complements your skin tone and personal style. The single-bridge design and sculpted temples with the MAX&Co logo add refined details without overwhelming the frame's clean lines. Whether you're at work, running errands, or out with friends, these frames transition effortlessly between settings.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are the MAX & CO 5078 eyeglasses suitable for prescription lenses?
Yes, the MAX & CO 5078 frames are fully prescription-ready and can accommodate single-vision, bifocal, and progressive lenses. The butterfly shape provides a generous lens area that works particularly well with multifocal prescriptions. You can customize your lenses with various coatings including anti-reflective, blue light blocking, and high-index options for stronger prescriptions.
What face shapes look best with butterfly eyeglasses?
Butterfly frames like the MAX & CO 5078 are most flattering on oval, heart-shaped, and square faces. The upswept outer edges create a lifting effect that accentuates cheekbones and can help elongate the face. The curved shape softens angular features on square faces while adding balance to heart-shaped faces.
What are the benefits of acetate frames compared to regular plastic?
Acetate frames offer superior durability, flexibility, and comfort compared to conventional plastic. Acetate is a plant-based, hypoallergenic material that's lightweight yet strong, making it less prone to breakage. The color is embedded in the material layers rather than painted on, so it won't chip or fade over time like regular plastic frames.
What are the frame measurements for the MAX & CO 5078?
The MAX & CO 5078 has a lens width of 54mm, bridge width of 15mm, and temple length of 140mm. These measurements make it a medium-sized frame suitable for most adult faces. The 15mm bridge provides a comfortable fit on the nose, and the full-rim acetate construction ensures a snug, secure fit.
Are MAX & CO eyeglasses good quality?
Yes, MAX & CO eyeglasses are manufactured by Marcolin, a respected Italian eyewear company known for quality craftsmanship. The brand uses premium acetate materials and adheres to high Italian manufacturing standards. MAX & CO frames are designed for durability and comfort, making them a reliable choice for everyday wear.
Can I wear the MAX & CO 5078 frames all day comfortably?
Yes, these frames are designed for all-day comfort. The acetate material is naturally lightweight, reducing pressure on your nose and ears during extended wear. The frame's flexibility allows it to adjust to your facial contours, and the hypoallergenic properties mean it's unlikely to cause skin irritation even with prolonged use.
