Face Shapes

For Heart-Shaped Faces

Triangular shaped faces need frames that can help broaden their delicate jawline. If you have broad brow and a narrow chin, try a style with bottom-heavy frames. Shapes that are parallel and extend past the width of your face will complement your strong jawline. Aviators are another great option as the sloping silhouette contrasts your V-shaped chin.

For Square-Shaped Faces

Colors such as tortoise and neutral tomes help soften and subtly frame the face, while lensed with a warm amber tint add a cool and retro look. Soften your features with curvy frames, such as an oval or rectangular pair with rounded edges. Modern cat eyes that curve downward will also balance your angles.

For Round-Shaped Faces

Rectangular sunglasses balance your round features as this style will help elongate your face, bringing attention upward. We suggest a style a brow bar, which is perfect for a round face as it gives the wearer a fun defined shape. Another solid option is a pair of classic cat eye with sweeping angles. Try not to go too oversized-large frames will overpower your perfect circle.

For Oval-Shaped Faces

Oval-shaped faces have the second-to most wiggle room when choosing their eyewear. You basically get to wear whatever you want. However, we recommend skipping perfect circle frames which won’t elongate your face shape.
