When it comes to choosing the perfect hat, the shape of your face plays a key role. With so many styles available, it can be tricky to know which is the most flattering for you. Leave behind the fear of hats; if they don't look good on you, it's most likely that you haven't found the ideal shape for you yet, but don't worry because there are dozens and together we'll find the perfect one to elevate all your looks. Here is a guide to help you choose the hat that suits you best according to your face shape.
Oval Face
People with an oval face are lucky to be able to wear almost any style of hat. The balanced shape of the face allows for experimenting with different models. You can try Fedora hats, Cloche hats, and caps, as these styles will complement your proportions without overwhelming your face.
Round Face
If you have a round face, the goal is to visually lengthen it and give it some angularity. To achieve this, opt for hats with medium or wide brims, such as Fedora hats or cowboy-style hats. It's best to avoid hats that are too tight or small, as they can make your face look even rounder.
Square Face
Square faces have a defined jawline and forehead. To soften these lines, look for hats with rounded shapes. Cloche hats or wide-brimmed hats are ideal because their curves contrast with the straight lines of your face. Avoid hats with rigid and structured shapes.
Long Face (Oblong)
For long faces, the key is to create a sense of balance and make the face appear shorter. Choose hats with wide brims and low crowns, such as Floppy hats. This will help add horizontal width to your face.
Heart-Shaped Face
Heart-shaped faces have a wide forehead and a narrow chin. You need to find a hat that balances these proportions. Fedora hats or hats with slanted brims are perfect for you, as they add width to the lower part of the face. It's best to avoid hats that are very bulky at the top.
Diamond-Shaped Face
Diamond-shaped faces have wide cheekbones and a narrow chin and forehead. It's important to find a hat that balances these features. Opt for hats with medium brims and moderately high crowns, such as Fedora or Trilby hats. Avoid hats with very wide or very narrow brims, as they can exaggerate the shape of your face.
