Fit first, shape second

Find Glasses for Your Face Shape

Face shape can help you decide where to begin, but fit is more important than a shape label. Frames should align with your pupils, sit comfortably on the bridge, avoid pressing into the cheeks, and match the width of your head.

Frame Directions by Face Shape

  • Oval: many shapes work; prioritize correct width and scale.
  • Round: rectangular and angular frames add contrast; round frames repeat softness.
  • Square: oval and round frames soften; geometric frames emphasize structure.
  • Heart: lighter lower rims and balanced aviators reduce upper weight.
  • Diamond: oval, browline, and upswept frames complement cheekbones.
  • Oblong: taller lenses and wider frames occupy more space.
  • Triangle: upper-rim detail adds upper-face emphasis.

Frame Width

The outer edges should generally align with the broadest area of the face without squeezing the temples.

03

Bridge Fit

The bridge should sit securely without pinching or sliding. Nose shape and bridge design can matter more than face category.

04

Eye and Cheek Position

Your pupils should sit comfortably within the lenses, and the lower rims should not lift when you smile.
