01 — Start with the look
Which frame feels most like you?
Use these style directions as a starting point. You do not need to follow a rule—the right frame is the one you feel best wearing.
Soft and balanced
Rounded lines feel approachable and understated while still giving the face a clear frame.
Look for
Rounded or gently curved frames
Warm and relaxed
Tortoiseshell and translucent tones soften the overall look and add character without feeling loud.
Look for
Warm, translucent or tonal frames
Bold and expressive
A stronger silhouette or distinctive lens colour turns eyewear into the focal point of the outfit.
Look for
Thicker profiles or statement lenses
02 — Face shape
A useful starting point, never a strict rule.
Frame contrast can help create balance, but personal style and fit matter more than following a formula.
Round face
Create contrast
Structured rectangular or angular frames can add definition and balance softer contours.
Oval face
Choose by personality
Most silhouettes tend to work well. Focus on whether you want the frame to feel quiet, classic or more expressive.
Square or angular face
Add softness
Rounded edges, warmer colours and translucent materials can soften stronger facial angles.
Heart-shaped face
Create balance
Look for frames that feel substantial without overwhelming the narrower lower half of the face.
03 — Understand the lenses
Choose protection first, then choose the experience.
Protection
UV400
Designed to block UVA and UVB light up to 400 nm. This should be the starting point for every pair you choose.
Everyday sun
Category 2
A versatile tint for moderate sunlight and day-to-day wear when conditions are bright but not extreme.
Brighter conditions
Category 3
A darker tint suited to stronger sunlight, holidays and brighter outdoor conditions.
Versatility
Adaptive lenses
Colour-changing lenses respond to light conditions, offering a more adaptable experience throughout the day.
04 — Check the fit
Three things to look for when trying on a frame.
Frame width
The outer edges should sit comfortably around the widest part of your face without squeezing at the temples.
Bridge position
The frame should feel secure on your nose without leaving excessive pressure or constantly sliding down.
Everyday comfort
Move your head, smile and look down. The best frame should stay secure and feel natural throughout the day.
Still deciding?
The best frame is the one that feels like you.
