All About Rectangle Glasses

Rectangle glasses: The shape shifters

Rectangle frames not only offer major style points but also can frame a face like no other. Their sharp angles provide contrast to delicate features, while their unique proportions balance out narrow features or draw attention away from broader parts of the face.

Being wider than their square counterparts, a rectangular pair also provides a unique slimming effect that appeals to many.

Finding your perfect match

Though rectangle glasses are known to be universally flattering, the frame shape is more than just a one-size-fits-all. Other factors come into play, such as your face shape and the overall effect you want to achieve with your new glasses.

For example, those with round or oval faces may gravitate towards frames with sharper edges for more definition, while more angular faces such as diamond and heart shapes tend to go for wayfarer or clubmaster styles to balance out their more prominent features.

Though if you're still unsure about your face shape, you can always check out our guide to matching your frame shape to your face shape.

How to style rectangular frames

When choosing a rectangular frame, another thing to consider is your current lifestyle. That includes your hobbies, wardrobe choices, as well as your occupation.

If you love a minimalist wardrobe or work in a more corporate setting, sophisticated metal frames and rectangle styles with rounded edges are excellent choices.

But for those in more creative industries, or perhaps have a more eccentric sense of style, tons of bold prints and contemporary designs surely bring out your artistic side!

No matter which style you choose, you'll want to make sure to select a size that fits your face perfectly. For the most flattering and comfortable fit, take a read of our frame measurement guide.
