My vision may be blurry, but even I can see it, there has never been a better time to send glasses. I went to the Oliver Man’s Madison Street store to try some. Below are the best tips for choosing truly inspiring glasses.
Consider your face shape
There is some science to choose the ideal shape of glasses, although it is a profound practice.
George Lee has worked with Oliver Peoples for 12 years and he broke the formula for choosing the most flattering glasses for different facial shapes. It all has to do with balance: While those with triangular faces (characterized by both wider forehead and smaller chin) can choose smaller frames, narrower foreheads and wider chins get larger frames. Similarly, if you have a square face, Lee recommends picking a slightly rounded frame to make your appearance a little soft. For round faces, square glasses will make your appearance bigger.
…and your eyebrows and coloring
Generally speaking, you don’t want glasses to cover your eyebrows: Ideally, the top of the frame will follow the brow bone and be slightly lower than the brow. As far as your coloring is to try to create contrast, but if you’re new to optical gaming, something classic (for example, is a relatively thin oval or soft acetate frame in black or totoiseshell) , will do well.
Your prescription is important
If your prescription is low, your frame can appear in almost any size or style. On the other hand, higher prescriptions narrow the field slightly, tending to require smaller edges.
Limit distractions
Lee should pay attention to how many frames he shows to each client. He often doesn’t pull over 10-12 in total to avoid choosing the choice. He also thinks it’s better to try solos rather than choose by committee. (However, selfies are fair games, and I recommend that you work hard to spread all your choices in your trusted council.)
Personal style is crucial
Just like clothes, glasses are ultimately an extension of your taste and style: what makes a pair of glasses “good” comes down to what makes it you Happy. In my case, I followed Lee’s step-by-step guidance and chose a delicate round spec that gave my eyebrows plenty of breathing space and balance (but didn’t overwhelm) my oval face. Their colors – Tortoiseshell with ivory interiors, both stand out from my lighter complexion and dark hair. Judging from my reflection, this is my first time Like me Use a pair of glasses.
