FIND YOUR FRAME

START WITH WIDTH

Face-shape advice is useful, but fit starts with dimensions. Use width first, then choose the silhouette you prefer.

NARROW

Start with frame width. Narrower fronts usually sit more securely and keep the eyes centred.

SEE THE FIT GUIDE

MEDIUM

The broadest fit range. Use lens width, bridge and temple length to refine your choice.

SEE THE FIT GUIDE

WIDE

Prioritise overall frame width before face-shape rules to avoid pinching at the temples.
