Who should wear round sunglasses?
Choosing sunglasses can be a no-brainer for some, but very difficult for others.
As a matter of fact, there are several factors to consider, including the shape of the frame, which must fit your face.
Here's what you need to know about round frame sunglasses and how to tell if they're right for you.
All you need to know about round sunglasses
The round shape was the first attributed to spectacles lenses and remained the only one for centuries before other types appeared.
Round frame glasses have sometimes been outmoded, and other times been brought back into fashion, as with John Lennon in the 1970s.
Round sunglasses have stood the test of time and are currently enjoying a resurgence in popularity.
The rounded shape of these sunglasses gives a cheerful, fun, warm and daring look.
Artists in search of fantasy and uniqueness often choose circle sunglasses.
This distinctive type of sunglass frame allows to stand out from the crowd and make a statement.
Available in a wide range of colours and sizes, round sunglasses will suit many different faces.
However, there are a few things you need to consider beforehand to make sure they're right for you.
Who are round sunglasses for?
It's important to identify your facial morphology to find out if round frame sunglasses are right for you.
Your face shape can generally be easily determined by looking at yourself in the mirror.
If in doubt, an optician will be able to determine your facial morphology more accurately.
Round sunglasses are particularly recommended for people with square or rectangular faces.
The roundness of the frame counterbalances the straight, linear features of these shapes.
In fact, circle sunglasses break up the rigidity of this type of face and add softness.
This way, a round sunglass frame can ideally balance a square or rectangular face.
Oval faces, which match almost any frame, can also wear round-framed sunglasses.
On the other hand, people with round faces should avoid choosing circle sunglasses.
In fact, round-framed sunglasses might accentuate the width and youthfulness of those faces.
Morphology aside, round sunglasses are particularly recommended for strong personalities.
This model will appeal to people who are looking for originality, energy, warmth and boldness.
Feel free to ask your Optical Center optician if round sunglasses would be right for you.
