THE RIGHT FRAMES FOR YOUR FACE SHAPE

Not sure how to select eyewear for the shape of your face? Well we’ve put together this handy guide to help you select the right frames to complement your features.

Round Face

Rectangular frames will create the illusion of a more defined bone structure. Try boxy frames like our Nile Collection or our Pharoah Collection.

Oval Face

Almost any style of glasses will work with this face shape, but we recommend our Giza Collection, DEEMED Aviators, and Divine Nine Collection.

Square Face

A square face shape looks best in rounded glasses like our Keys to Kenya Collection in Blue or Pink with a beautiful Ankara pattern or our Ankara Aviators.

Oblong Face

To balance the narrowness of your face shape, go for rectangular frames that are wider than the width of your face like our Aurora and Mpenzi frames, or our Cairo and Rands Collections.

Diamond Face

A diamond face shape is when the widest part of your face is right around your cheekbones and eyes, but your forehead and chin are narrower. Go for a cat eye frame like our Cleopatra or Aztec Archetype collections.

Heart-Shaped Face

Not sure if you have a heart-shaped face? If the width of your forehead is wider than your jawline, that’s the first and most distinct characteristic. Sometimes, the forehead is the same width as your cheekbones, but in some cases, your forehead may be slightly wider than your cheekbones. It can also be the opposite — where the cheekbones are the widest. For this face shape, we recommend aviators, oval, cat-eye or rectangular frames. So try our Acacia or DEEMED aviators, Rands, Charlotta or Aztech Archetype sunglasses.

Pronounced Features

If you have high cheekbones or a wider nose bridge you want oversized wayfarer shaped glasses. These glasses fit very comfortably and are a mix of cat eye and square like our Moroccan Wayfarers and Rwanda Wayfarers (Vontélle best sellers).
