Why Choose Sunglasses for Long Faces

D.Franklin's sunglasses for long faces are designed to visually shorten the face and bring balance to your facial expression. Models with wide frames, square shapes, or slightly oversized styles are ideal, as they break the face’s vertical lines and draw attention to the eyes.

In addition to stylish design, our sunglasses feature polarized lenses with UV400 protection—ideal for safeguarding your eyes in any situation.

Our frames are made from lightweight, durable materials, so you can wear them for hours in total comfort. Each pair combines functionality and fashion, with neutral or bold colors to match any outfit.

How to Choose the Best Sunglasses for Long Faces

When choosing sunglasses for a long face, the most important thing is to counteract the face’s verticality with frames that add width and presence—especially at the top.

Large frames with square, rectangular, or cat-eye shapes are ideal for adding volume and visually shortening the face.

Also, keep in mind these key elements:

1. Frame Size:
   Medium or large styles with solid structure help highlight the upper part of the face.

2. Lens Height:
   Taller lenses offer better facial balance and proportions.

3. Bold Designs:
   Frames with temple accents, contrasting colors, or metallic details enhance horizontal dimension.

For women’s sunglasses for long faces, cat-eye models work especially well by drawing attention to the face’s sides.

How to Style Sunglasses for Long Faces

Styling your sunglasses for long faces has never been easier. Whether you're going for a casual look or something more refined, there are endless options.

Black or dark earth-toned frames are great for a casual outfit and pair seamlessly with basics or sporty looks. For a more elevated style, opt for designs with glossy finishes, gradient lenses, or bold shapes that create the perfect, elegant balance.

For urban fashion—think oversized jackets, flowing shirts, or printed dresses—sunglasses with irregular frames enhance that proportion play that flatters long faces so well. Women’s sunglasses for long faces can become the star accessory of your outfit when you combine color, balance, and the right frame design.
