Round-about
Geek chic gets an A this semester.
Why now? Prada, Miu Miu, Giorgio Armani and other designer eyeglasses for women throw old school circles a curve with hot hues, high nose bridges and thick acetate or wood frames.
Work it: Soften an angular or narrow face with rounded aviators or clear red frames.
See: Demi Lovato, Katy Perry, Beyoncé and Lady Gaga make these glasses sing.
Hard pass: Be smart and go small, go bright or go home. Even stylista Jackie Kennedy Onassis looked bug-eyed in oversized circles.
Rectangles
Bold shapes don’t box you in.
Why now? Sharp angles are high style these days – and not only on Chanel, Gucci, Dior and Stella McCartney runways.
Work it: It’s hip to be square, triangular, hexagonal or octangular. And such eyeglass frames for women add edge to round faces.
See: Drama queen Cate Blanchett has been spotted in cerulean squ-ovals and Beyoncé in chunky black rectangular eyeglasses for women.
Hard pass: Keep in mind that the wider the frame, the wider the face.
