Glasses for Round Faces

Those with a round-face shape should choose frames with some contrast to them to balance the roundness of their features. Frames with sharp corners, such rectangles or squares, are best for giving the appearance of length and structure to the face. The roundness of a round face may be balanced out by these frame styles.

Glasses for Oval Faces

People with oval faces are thought to be versatile as they can wear a wide range of frame styles. Almost any frame shape, such as rectangular, round, or even cat-eye, can go with an oval face shape.

Glasses for Square Faces

Angles on square faces are well-defined.  Look for frames with bends and soft lines. Teardrop shapes like aviators or wider frame styles are great options as they contrast toward a square jawline and provide balance to this face shape.

Glasses for Diamond Faces

Faces with a diamond shape look best in frames that are longer than they are wide. These frames help make the face look longer and take the attention away from its angles. Styles with higher lenses, like aviators, work well for this face shape.

Glasses for Triangle Faces

Faces in the shape of a triangle have a more broad forehead and a narrow chin. Look for frames like cat-eye or semi-rimless that get narrower toward the bottom. These styles draw attention downward and create a more harmonious look for triangular faces.
