The Prada B11V eyeglasses bring Italian luxury to everyday eyewear with a pillow-square acetate frame that balances modern geometry with soft, rounded edges. Available in sophisticated colorways including root tortoise, black, cold mauve, and cinnamon tortoise, these full-rim frames feature the signature metal triangle accents at the front corners and the exclusive Prada Iconic Plaque engraved on the temples.
Premium Acetate Construction
Built from cellulose acetate, the B11V delivers both durability and lightweight comfort. Acetate allows for rich, dimensional color finishes—the tortoise variants show depth and warmth, while the transparent mauve offers a contemporary translucent look. The material is hypoallergenic and holds its shape over time, making these frames suitable for all-day wear.
The pillow shape works across multiple face types. Its soft curves complement angular or square faces by adding roundness, while the structured frame front provides definition for rounder face shapes. Measurements include a 50mm or 52mm lens width, 20mm bridge, and 145mm temples, with a 44mm lens height that offers generous coverage without overwhelming smaller features.
Prescription-Ready & Versatile
These frames accept prescription lenses for single vision, progressive, or reading prescriptions. The full-rim construction supports a wide range of lens types and prescriptions, and the integrated nose bridge ensures a secure, comfortable fit. Prada's attention to detail extends to the temple construction—slim enough to wear comfortably with headphones or hats, yet substantial enough to feel premium.
The B11V sits within Prada's tradition of minimalist sophistication. Founded in 1913 and transformed under Miuccia Prada's leadership, the brand is known for clean lines, understated branding, and quality that lasts. These frames ship with authentic Prada packaging, case, and cleaning cloth.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are the Prada B11V eyeglasses suitable for prescription lenses?
Yes, the Prada B11V frames are fully prescription-ready and compatible with single vision, progressive, and bifocal lenses. The full-rim acetate construction provides a stable base for various lens types and prescription strengths, and the frame can accommodate high-index lenses for stronger prescriptions.
What face shapes work best with the Prada B11V pillow frame?
The pillow shape of the B11V is versatile and flatters multiple face shapes. The soft, rounded edges work particularly well for square or angular faces by adding curves, while the structured frame front provides definition for round or oval faces. The 50mm and 52mm lens width options help you find the right proportion for your features.
What is the difference between the 50mm and 52mm sizes?
The lens width differs by 2mm between sizes—50mm is better suited for smaller to medium faces, while 52mm works for medium to larger faces. Both sizes share the same 20mm bridge width and 145mm temple length. The lens height is 44mm for both, providing ample vertical coverage.
What material are the Prada B11V frames made from?
The B11V is constructed entirely from cellulose acetate, a premium, hypoallergenic material known for its durability, lightweight feel, and ability to hold rich color finishes. Acetate is more flexible and comfortable than standard plastic, and it maintains its shape and color over time with proper care.
What comes included with the Prada B11V eyeglasses?
Authentic Prada B11V frames come with the original Prada hard case, a cleaning cloth, and full brand packaging with authenticity certification. All accessories are provided directly by the manufacturer to ensure you receive a genuine Prada product.
How do I identify the authentic Prada triangle logo on the B11V?
The B11V features metal triangle accents on the front corners of the frame and the Prada Iconic Plaque engraved on the temples. The triangle logo is a signature Prada design element inspired by the brand's jewelry heritage. Authentic frames will have clean, precise logo application with no rough edges or misalignment.

Prada B11V vs. Similar Prada Eyeglasses
If you're considering the Prada B11V, you might also be weighing other Prada acetate frames. Here's how the B11V compares to two popular alternatives in our collection.
Prada B11V vs. Prada 10YV
Both frames showcase Prada's mastery of acetate construction and Italian craftsmanship. The B11V stands out with its distinctive pillow-square shape and prominent metal triangle accents on the front, creating a more architectural look. The 10YV offers a different frame geometry that may appeal to those seeking an alternative silhouette. Both are prescription-ready and come with authentic Prada packaging. Choose the B11V if you want the signature triangle logo detail and the versatile pillow shape that flatters multiple face types.
Prada B11V vs. Prada A02V
The A02V sits in a similar price range ($224.70–$340.00) to the B11V ($362.60–$518.00), though the B11V commands a slight premium for its distinctive design elements. Both feature full-rim acetate frames with Prada's signature attention to detail. The B11V's pillow shape and metal triangle accents give it a more contemporary, statement-making aesthetic, while the A02V may offer a different style direction. If the metal triangle logo and Iconic Plaque detailing are important to you, the B11V is the clear choice.
Why Choose the Prada B11V?
The B11V excels if you want a frame that balances modern design with versatility. The pillow shape works across face types, the metal accents add visual interest without being loud, and the range of colorways—from classic black and tortoise to the fashion-forward cold mauve—gives you options to match your style. The B11V represents Prada's contemporary design language at its best.
