How to Choose Your Eyewear According to Your Face Shape

Facial features:

• Wide forehead
• High, pronounced cheekbones
• Narrow jaw
• Narrow, pointed chin

To soften the features of the upper part of the face, we recommend balancing with a rather delicate spectacle shape.

Recommended frames:

• Round
• Aviator

 

This face shape is one of the most popular and also the most versatile.

Balanced proportions specifically characterize the oval face shape:

• Slightly wide forehead
• Slightly tapered chin
• High cheekbones
• Face that has a little curve in its overall shape.

An oval face looks good with any type of frame, for this reason, we recommend frames that do not alter the balance of the features.

Recommended frames:

• Round for a more sophisticated look
• Aviator, Rectangular, and Square for a look with attitude

 

Facial features:

• Wide, pronounced cheeks
• Round chin
• Delicate contours
• Short, full-face

We suggest frames that soften the face's width, such as thin frames and angled shapes.

Recommended frames:

• Rectangular
• Square

 

Facial features:

• Pronounced forehead, jaw and chin of the same width
• High cheekbones
• Face rather short and wide

For this type of face we recommend frames that extent and diminish the angle of the face, favoring frames with small lenses and wide temples.

Recommended frames: 

• Round
• Aviator

 

Facial features:

• Small forehead
• Pronounced jawline
• Pronounced cheekbones

Wide frames with high temples are recommended.

Recommended frames: 

• Rectangular
• Square

Measurements of TBD Eyewear

The measurements differ according to the model. The fit is determined based on the width of the lens and the width of the frame. Find the perfect fit for your face shape by following the guide below:

Narrow: For those with a narrow, elongated face and reduced temple width. 

Regular: Forehead and chin are well-proportioned and medium size. Most TBD Eyewear models are made in this size.

If you already have a pair of sunglasses we suggest you check the measurements engraved inside the left temple and compare them with the Measure Tab below (in millimeters).
