Many factors exist when choosing the correct eyewear for yourself – this usually ranges from lens types and styles, prints and colors, overall size, material, and of course the frame shape. 

Warby Parker designers suggest that ideally, when trying to figure out which frame shape to pair with your face shape, the objective should be to create a visually-appealing balance between the frame shape and face shape. The frame shape (round, square, cateye, aviator, ect.) can highlight the face’s angles (whether those angles appear softer on round faces or more sharper or angular on square faces) – in order to create a balance, opt for matching more angular or sharper faces (ex. square, diamond) with more rounder frames, and more rounder faces (ex. round, oval, heart) with more angular frames.   

It’s important to note that this is not a perfect science and just a guideline – so it shouldn’t stop you from wearing any of your favorite frames!
