Versatile Sunglasses for Any Face Shape

By now, most of us understand the importance of finding the ideal sunglasses for our face shape, but with so many styles, variations, and trends, determining what suits you isn't always a clear decision. To take the guesswork out, we've compiled a list of our absolute favorite and most versatile sunglasses for any face shape—no, really!


Take our advice and be sure your repertoire of chic eyewear isn't without our ultra-versatile executions of the most iconic and universally complimenting sunglass styles.

HAZY TORTOISE/AMETHYST

Square, rectangle, and Wayfarer Sunglasses

It's widely agreed that round and oval shaped faces do well with the contrasting sharp edges of square, rectangle, and wayfarer frames. What's lesser known is that these clean-lined classic sunglasses work on practically any face shape. Sunglass styles like these are dripping in iconic insouciance beloved by A-list celebs and the fashion elite. We're talking everyone from mid-century rebels, '90s bad boys, and even modern day royals. Invest in a pair like TELL ME MORE and enjoy them for years. 

SHINY YELLOW TORTOISE/ORANGE

Aviator Sunglasses

Regardless of whether you're on a highway to the danger zone, aviator sunglasses make a surprisingly flattering option for most face shapes. Initially designed for functional purposes for US military pilots in the 1930s, aviator sunglasses have been reimagined more than possibly any other frame with more versions ranging from subtle to bold, which is likely why they continue to top the list of iconic and resiliently stylish sunglass styles. ON THE FLY's strong lines at the top, subtle teardrop shape at the bottom, and soft, oversized look are flattering for almost anyone.

BLACK/FADE

Variations of Cat-eye Sunglasses

Although cat-eye sunglasses are often associated with a vintage, mid-century vibe and are generally considered one of the best sunglasses for round face shapes, there exist so many versions of cat-eyes today that just about everyone can benefit from this quintessential style. Try an oversized version like IN PURSUIT that practically begs to be worn while eating a croissant outside the window of a luxury jeweler in New York. Or opt for a micro version of this pointed charmer for a modern edge that's a perfect style for smaller faces
