Finding the Perfect Frame for Your Face Shape
Choosing the right eyewear isn’t just about vision; it’s about style, confidence, and comfort. Whether you’re shopping online or visiting us in-store, this guide helps you discover the perfect frame for your face shape.
Understanding your face shape is the first step toward finding eyewear that complements your features. From bold statements to subtle elegance, the right frames can enhance not just how you see, but how you’re seen.
1. Round Face Shape
Features: Youthful and soft, round faces feature full cheeks, a rounded chin, and similar width and length. The jawline is smooth with gentle curves.
Best Frames: We recommend rectangular, square, and cat-eye frames. Check out our Munyenye y’a Afrika, Drew, Mr.Smith, Shield, Audrey, Miranda, Viola, and so much more.
Style tip: Angular frames create contrast and definition, giving the face a longer, leaner appearance.
2. Square Face Shape
Features: Defined jawline, broad forehead, and a consistent width from the forehead down to the chin.
Best Frames: We recommend round, oval glasses, cat-eye, and oversized glasses. Check out our Kentwiga, Harlem, Ebony, and so much more.
Style tip: Curved lines soften the sharpness of a square face and add a touch of elegance.
3. Oval Face Shape
Features: Oval faces are softly rounded, with a forehead slightly wider than the chin and high cheekbones. This shape is considered versatile.
Best Frames: We recommend square frames, rectangular, cat-eye, aviators, and round glasses. Check out our Kentwiga, Harlem, Ebony, Viola, Munyenye y’a Afrika, Mr.Smith, Audrey, and so much more.
Style tip:
Almost every frame shape complements an oval face. You have the freedom to express your unique style!
4. Heart-Shaped Face
Features: A broad forehead, high cheekbones, and a narrow chin define this lovely silhouette.
Best Frames: We recommend light-colored or rimless styles and bottom-heavy frames to add fullness to the lower face. Round aviators, oval, rimless and cat-eye
Check out our Kentwiga, Harlem, Ebony, Viola, Munyenye y’a Afrika, Mr.Smith, Audrey, and so much more.
Style tip: These styles create visual harmony by balancing out the proportions of the forehead and chin.
4. Diamond Face Shape
Features: Diamond faces are narrow at the forehead and jaw, with beautifully defined cheekbones.
Best Frames: We recommend cat-eye, oval frames
Check out our Viola, Miranda, Drew, Audrey, and so much more.
Style tip: These styles create visual harmony by balancing out the proportions of the forehead and chin.
4. Rectangular/oblong Face Shape
Features: Longer than it is wide, this face shape often features a tall forehead and straight cheek lines.
Best Frames: We recommend round, oval, square/box, and aviator frames. Deeper/taller frames to shorten the faces visually, and wide styles or decorative temples to add width are highly recommended.
Check out our Drew, Kentwiga, Munyenye y’a Afrika, Mr.Smith, and so much more.
Style tip: These frames provide balance and avoid making the face appear longer.
In Conclusion
