Which Style for You
- Glasses for Round Faces – Round face needs to be about the same width and height, with a curving chin and cheeks. Flat, rectangular lenses will make your face appear longer and thinner. Thick frames on a round face are not so good, so keep the actual material thin.
- Glasses for Heart-Shaped Faces – You can take a lot of the emphasis of a pointed chin by wearing lenses that are wider at the top than the bottom. A butterfly taper to the sides are great because it brings the attention in toward the centre of your face. Embrace thicker wire or plastic frames.
- Glasses for Square Faces – If you are looking to soften your impression up a little then wear rounded lenses. If you like the strong profile and don’t want glasses to make you look out there, squared-off shapes can still work. Make sure the lenses are large and about even in height and width, the frames should stay slim.
- Glasses for Oval Faces – Oval faces are the most common feature for men. They work well with most styles. An oval face is taller than it is wide, with a rounded chin and high cheekbones, and it can wear either squared-off frames or curving ones. A thicker frame can add definition to your face.
