Glasses are a perfect finishing touch to help you express your style.
Why do some eyeglasses look attractive on display in the optical shop, but not so great when you try them on?
It could be that the frames are the wrong style for your face shape. Your face shape plays a significant role in whether a certain style of glasses will look good on you.
What is my face shape?
To determine your face shape and which eyeglass styles will look best on you, pull your hair away from your face and look directly into a mirror. Take a close look at the overall shape and contours of your face and head.
Here are the seven primary face shapes and type of eyeglasses frames that look best on each face shape:
Oval face shape:- Look for eyeglass frames that are as wide as the broadest part of the face. Walnut shaped frames that are not too deep or narrow are a very good choice.
Heart shaped face:- Choose frame shapes that are wider at the bottom. Thin light coloured frames and rimless frame that have a light, airy appearance also are good choice.
Oblong face shape:- To make an oblong face appear shorter and more balanced, try frames that have more depth than width.
Square face shape:- To make a square face look longer and soften its angle, try narrow frame styles, frames that have more width than depth, and narrow ovals.
Diamond face shape:- To highlight the eyes and soften the cheekbones, try frames that have detailing or distinctive brow lines. Rimless eyeglasses and frames with oval or cat eye shape also can be good choice.
Round face shape:- To make a round face appear thinner and longer, try angular narrow eyeglass frames to lengthen the face.
Base down triangle:- Try frames that are heavily accented with colour and detailing on the top half brow of the frame.
