Our guide for women

Glasses adapted to your face shape.


Generally speaking, choosing glasses to match your face shape can help to soften or strengthen your natural lines.


To soften your features, we advise you to choose glasses with a shape opposite to that of your face.
Square or rectangular glasses will soften a round face, while round or oval glasses will soften a face with more angular features.



You may also prefer to reinforce the lines of your face by choosing glasses that are close to the shape of your face.

Find your face shape.


You can stand in front of a mirror and compare the width of your forehead, cheekbones and jaw: a square face will tend to have a similar width of forehead, cheekbones and jaw, while a round face will have cheekbones that are wider than the forehead or jaw.

Square face.


If you have a square face, opt for oval shapes and soft lines to soften your features.
70s-style, metallic frames: try slim frames and rounded shapes.

Finally, make sure your Jimmy frames are slightly narrower than your face if you have a square face shape.

Round face.


Our advice for you: a slim frame with pronounced angles. These models will break up the roundness of your features by elongating and refining your face.


Your beautiful eyes will look even bigger in a pair like the Bari, the Hometown or the Aldo.
