Balancing Round Faces with Angular Frames

For rounder facial features, the goal is to add definition. We find that square or rectangular frames work wonders to contrast the face's natural curves, making it appear longer and slimmer. Bold, angular designs create a flattering balance and add a touch of sophistication.

Softening Square Faces with Curved Styles

A square face is characterized by a strong jawline and broad forehead. To soften these prominent features, we recommend round or oval frames. The gentle curves of these styles provide a beautiful contrast to the face's angularity, creating a more harmonious and balanced look.

Complementing Heart-Shaped Faces

Heart-shaped faces are wider at the forehead and narrower at the chin. To create balance, we suggest frames that are wider at the bottom, like aviators, or have detailing on the lower half. Cat-eye frames are also particularly flattering as they draw attention upward and out.

The Versatility of Oval Faces

An oval face shape is the most versatile for eyewear. Its balanced proportions mean that nearly any frame style will look great, from oversized statement pieces to classic, reserved designs. This gives you the ultimate freedom to experiment and find a pair that truly reflects your personality.
