Best Glasses for a Heart Face Shape

Frames that are wider at the bottom, or light at the top, balance a wider forehead.

This guide is for the heart face shape: forehead at least 95% of the cheekbone width, with a jaw at 80% or less of the cheekbone width.

Try

  • Bottom-heavy, round and aviator-style frames
  • Rimless and thin-rimmed glasses that keep the top light
  • Oval and light-coloured frames
  • Frames with a low, curved lower edge that adds width at the cheeks

Skip or adjust

  • Top-heavy frames, such as heavy browlines, that add width at the forehead
  • Very decorative or bright frames across the top
  • Narrow frames that emphasise the narrow chin
