Glasses for oval faces

An oval face is long and slim. Some consider it to have the ideal proportions. Having an oval face certainly makes choosing frames for your glasses easier, because you can wear any glasses you like. And harder, because there are so many to choose from.

Do I have an oval face?

Characteristics of an oval face are long and slim. The forehead and chin are narrow, while the cheeks may appear to be wider.

Which glasses should I choose?

Basically all frames fit an oval face. You need to choose frames that go with your personality and style. Angular frames, especially with wide rims, stand out more and make more of a statement. But they also distract from your features. If you want people to notice your face, you can go for round or oval lenses and thin-rimmed or even rimless frames.
