When it comes to accessorizing with impact, sunglasses are more than just eye protection—they're a powerful fashion statement. But not all sunglasses suit every face shape, and if you have a square face shape, choosing the right pair can make all the difference in highlighting your best features. At ROYALTAIL, we believe every face deserves a perfect frame, and this guide is designed to help you find sunglasses that complement your unique structure.
Understanding the Square Face Shape
Before diving into style tips, it’s important to understand what defines a square face. If you have:
-
A broad forehead
-
Strong, angular jawline
-
Equal width across the forehead, cheeks, and jaw
-
Minimal curve in the chin area
Then you most likely have a square face shape. This face type exudes strength and confidence, but because of its bold angles, the right sunglasses should soften and balance those lines.
Why Sunglasses Matter for Square Faces
Sunglasses are not just about sun protection—they add balance, personality, and polish to your look. For square faces, the right pair of shades can:
-
Soften sharp jawlines
-
Add contrast to angular features
-
Bring symmetry to the overall facial structure
-
Create a more elongated appearance
That’s why choosing wisely is essential.
ROYALTAIL’s Style Philosophy for Square Faces
At ROYALTAIL, our collections are crafted with not just trends in mind, but real people and real face shapes. Our designs focus on harmony—merging form with function to bring out the most flattering features for every face type. For square faces, we suggest styles that contrast your angular lines with curves, soft edges, and sleek silhouettes.
Best Sunglasses Styles for Square Face Shapes
1. Round Sunglasses: Soften and Balance
Round frames are the top pick for square faces. Their curved shape creates a contrast that softens the boldness of a square jaw and angular features.

Sunglasses Styles to Avoid for Square Faces
To make the most of your sunglasses, here are a few styles to skip if you want to balance your facial structure:
-
Square or rectangular frames: These mimic your face shape and can exaggerate sharp angles.
-
Thick, boxy frames: They add unnecessary bulk and make the face look shorter.
-
Geometric styles with hard lines: These compete with your natural features rather than enhancing them.
Remember, fashion rules are made to be broken—but knowing the basics helps you break them with style and confidence.
Additional Tips for Choosing the Right Sunglasses
1. Consider Frame Size
Balance is key. If you have a smaller square face, avoid oversized frames that overwhelm. If your features are more pronounced, larger lenses may suit you well.
2. Go for Lightweight Frames
For a face with bold angles, heavy frames can make your look too harsh. ROYALTAIL offers lightweight, durable options that sit comfortably without overpowering your face.
3. Play with Color
Dark frames add drama but can look harsh on square faces. Instead, try:
-
Tortoiseshell for warmth
-
Pastels for a fresh, modern feel
-
Metallics for a sleek, minimalist look
ROYALTAIL’s Color Pop Range is ideal for experimenting without losing sophistication.
Confidence Is the Best Accessory
No matter your face shape, the most important style rule is this: wear what makes you feel good. At ROYALTAIL, we don’t just design sunglasses—we craft confidence. When you wear a pair of ROYALTAIL shades tailored for your face, you’re not just making a style statement; you’re showcasing self-assurance.
