Square Face Shape

Soften the edges. To complement a powerful, angular jawline, we recommend round or oval frames. These curved silhouettes provide a beautiful contrast to your natural structure, drawing the eye upward and creating a harmonious, balanced profile.

Selecting Eyewear for Square Face Shapes

A square face shape is defined by a broad forehead and a strong, horizontal jawline. To create a flattering look, the best frames for square faces are those that sit high on the bridge of the nose and feature rounded edges. Circular glasses, oval frames, and curved aviators are ideal for softening sharp angles and adding length to the face. At Burghley & Co, we focus on frames that provide a gentle contrast to your structural features. Avoid extremely boxy or square frames, as these can over-emphasize your jaw. Instead, explore our range of rimless or semi-rimless designs that offer a lighter, sophisticated touch.
