Choosing the Best Pair for Your Face Shape

The eyeglasses or sunglasses you pick should be as unique as you are. Our expert team will help you determine your face shape and advise which styles best suit you. As a general guideline, here are some things to consider when selecting your next set of frames.

Square Face

The characteristics of a square face are equal parts length and width of the face. Your frames should make your face look longer. Consider curved or oval-shaped frames, which soften your face's angles.

Oblong Face

Generally, an oblong face is longer than it is wide, and you should look for frames that shorten the face and create a break in its length. Round frames with solid vertical lines or low-triangle shapes best complement this face shape.

Oval Face

An oval face has balanced proportions, with a forehead wider than the chin and high cheekbones. To enhance your face's natural proportions, choose frames as wide or wider than the broadest part of your face, and diamond or rectangular shapes are particularly flattering.

Round Face

A round face has an equal length and width. Therefore, prioritize frames that add length to your face, such as angular or narrow ones. Typically, round frames on this face shape exaggerate its curves and roundness.

Diamond Face

High, dramatic cheekbones with a narrow eye line and jawline are typical characteristics of a diamond-shaped face. It is the rarest of all shapes and best suited to oval frames, highlighting the eyes and cheekbones. Choose frames with detailing and distinctive brow lines, such as rimless or cat-eye shaped.
