Will Specs Suit Me?
Our faces, like our bodies, come in all
shapes and sizes, so if you wear glasses
it’s important to choose a pair that will
establish a balanced look. The four most
common face shapes are oval, round,
square and oblong.
If you have an oval shaped face with a
rounded chin and forehead, consider
yourself lucky! You’ll look good in almost
anything, but make sure you select a frame
that is wide enough to maintain balance.
A rectangular face is longer with a square
chin, deep forehead, high cheekbones and
long nose. Large, wide, square frames with
a strong top line help shorten the face, and
a low bridge will shorten the nose.
In addition, ensure that the top edge of
the frame is no higher than the eyebrows
and that the lower edge does not sit on the
cheekbones.
A round face needs to look narrower
and longer, which can be achieved with
soft but angular frames that are not too
deep. Geometric shapes and ones with
embellished arms also give the face more
definition.
If your face is square with a broad
forehead, wide jaw and square chin, soften
the angles by wearing oval or round frames
that are not too wide. These will soften the
jaw and help emphasise the eyes.
