Find your fit
Find your perfect frame
Choosing a new frame starts with personal taste, but finding a style that complements your features and provides all-day comfort is just as essential.
Every face is unique, yet most can be grouped into six general shapes: oval, round, square, base-up triangle, base-down triangle, and diamond.
To help you find the perfect fit, we’ve crafted the guide below as your personal Eyecare Project expert. Enjoy a tailored experience from the comfort of your home—or visit our store to receive personalised advice from one of our experts.
Round
A round face shape features soft curves and prominent cheekbones. Eyecare Project recommends angular frames with a wide, narrow design to add contrast and definition.
Diamond
A diamond face shape is widest at the center, tapering at the top and bottom. Eyecare Project recommends subtle metal frames in light to medium weight and colour for a balanced look.
Square
A square face shape features equal width from the forehead to the cheekbones. Eyecare Project recommends rounder silhouettes to soften the angles and add balance.
Oval
An oval face shape is well-balanced, narrow, and elongated. Those with an oval face can confidently wear most Eyecare Project frames.
Triangle Base Down
A base-down triangle face is wider at the jawline than the forehead. Eyecare Project recommends frames in bold colours or with a strong brow line to add balance and definition.
Triangle Base Up
A base-up triangle face, resembling a heart shape, is wider at the forehead with a narrow chin. Eyecare Project recommends wider frames with a soft, understated shape to create harmony and balance.
A final note
The most flattering glasses and sunglasses mirror the shape of your brow, creating harmony between the lines of your face and those of the frame.
- If you have relatively straight eyebrows, opt for a frame with a straightened browline.
- If your eyebrows are curved, consider frames with a more rounded or arched browline.
Your eyebrows should generally sit above the frame—if they’re inside the frame, the glasses may be too large for you (unless that’s the look you’re going for). Additionally, your pupils should be positioned near the centre of the lenses for the best fit and vision.
Your frames should never interfere with your smile. When you grin, your glasses should stay in place without shifting or being lifted by your cheeks.
