See below for the key trends to look out for in 2024, and the best face shape to suit the look.
Square Shaped Faces
Well defined features with a wide forehead and a strong jaw and cheekbones is traditionally seen as a square shaped face. If this is you then thinner, round shaped frames will suit you best. Classic aviators are especially flattering, as the curves in the thin wire frames help to soften your more angular features.
Metallic – Mixed metallic amongst eyeglasses is so hot right now, whether it is stainless steel, titanium or mixed metals most brands will have a collection to fit the bill. Light weight, with minimal fuse they are a perfect go to for office wear. Featured Style – Arise Collective ‘Maverick’ – RRP $79
Bold bright frames: Instantly transform your look with frames that are energetic and designed to stand out. With unique designs, vivid colours, and eye-catching shapes, they are perfect for elevating any outfit. Be Bold by SmartBuy Collection features eyewear that is anything but ordinary.
Big square frames – Oversized geek frames are back in business and are the ultimate statement piece to complete any outfit. These Tom Ford glasses add an on-trend edge to any look this season. Featured style: Tom Ford – RRP $333
Oval Shaped Faces
An oval shaped face is defined as one that has balanced features and high cheekbones. Your chin will be slightly narrower than your forehead and your features aren’t overly angular. Many people consider this the ‘shape of all shapes’, as in terms of frame shapes it is one of the most versatile.
As someone with an oval shaped face you will be able to wear almost any shaped frames and look fabulous. However, we would suggest staying away from oversized frames as they may swamp your features.
Out with the outsized frames and in with the cat eye silhouette – As a nod to 1950s glamour, cat eye frames are seen on many A-list celebrities across the globe. Featured brand LMNT – $64
The ‘Matrix’ look – Small frames are the absolute must-have look this season hot from the runway and ideal for the oval shaped faces. Futuristic in style; the thinner and smaller the frame, along with the more sci-fi colour the better. Featured style Ray-Ban – RRP $191
Round Shaped Faces
A round face shape, with fuller cheeks and a rounder chin, look great in butterfly and wayfarer frames. The strong shape of the glasses serves to elongate and define your naturally softer features.
The large squarer shaped lenses are a perfect example of a flattering shape for an oval face. The three colors serve to clearly define each part of the frame and draw attention to the sharp angles. They will elongate a rounder face.
These less conventional frames, with their slightly elongated tips work to elongate the brow and reduce the more rounded look of your face. The gold detail on the temple of this model serves to add a touch of flair to a more conservative style.
Pastel frames – Pastel colours provide a soft touch to skin tone whilst allowing your eyes to shine. Colour-blocking is all the rage, think pastel pink shades/ glasses with baby blue jumpsuits – You know it makes sense. Featured style – SmartBuy Collection – RRP $39
