Saint Laurent was founded in Paris in 1961 by designer Yves Saint Laurent and his partner Pierre Bergé, debuting their first collection in January 1962. The house quickly became one of fashion’s most influential voices, introducing Le Smoking, a tuxedo suit for women, and launching Rive Gauche, one of the first true ready-to-wear lines. The now-iconic interlocking YSL monogram was designed in 1963 by graphic artist A.M. Cassandre and still anchors the house’s eyewear today.

Saint Laurent eyewear is designed and produced by Kering Eyewear, reworking archival codes into bold, contemporary shapes. Frames are built from acetate and metal in oversize pilot silhouettes, narrow rectangular shapes, and 90s-inspired double-bridge styles, finished with the house’s vintage logo, wirecore detailing, and a signature corner angle on the temple. Every pair is built for the same confident, tailored attitude the house has carried since the 1960s.

Spectacle Shoppe carries an evolving selection of Saint Laurent glasses and sunglasses, so Minnesotans have a place to try on the real thing, with expert opticians here to help you find the shape that fits your own point of view.

The Spectacle Shoppe Experience

More than just trying on glasses, it’s a personalized journey to finding your perfect fit and look.

Decades of Design Excellence

Saint Laurent eyewear draws on decades of house archives, oversize pilot shapes, vintage logos, 90s double bridges, and rebuilds them in bold, contemporary proportions.

Precision Construction

Frames combine acetate and metal with details like visible wirecore and a signature corner angle on the temple, built with the same tailored precision as the house’s ready-to-wear.

Premium In-House Lenses

Our expert lab crafts premium lenses on-site, ensuring perfect clarity and optimal vision tailored to your prescription.

On-Site Optometrist

Spectacle Shoppe features on-site optometrists, making it convenient to get a comprehensive eye examination and your prescription eyeglasses all in one visit.

Thank you Jess & Anna!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely love these guys from start to finish, always friendly and helpful. It might take a while and some help from their (very knowledge about frames and how to help find your fit) staff, but you WILL find your frames in their extensive collection! The vintage frames room is my favorite!!!

Dr. Krysiak is also fantastic. He will tell you exactly what he is doing while he does it and it's a great distraction from the 'scarier' parts of an eye exam, and will tell you all kinds of cool stuff about your eyes :)

As a walk-in I didn't know whether they would repair my glasses and they did, with great results! I’m very happy and will return here for my next pair of glasses. Thank you!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have never experienced such an amazing optometrist office before going to Spectacle Shoppe! The service and professionalism was perfect, the doctor was informative and nice! I was in and out faster than I expected and I got little treats at the end :) If you have medical anxiety like I do, this is the place for you! I look forward to coming back
