  • Most people think that choosing glasses is all about matching the right shape of frame to the shape of your face... but actually it's about matching the personality of your eyewear with your own unique character.
    In this video, we explain what effect the frame shape has on the overall style of a pair of glasses, but also explore the other elements which can contribute just as much.

    why does he look good in every glasses

    • @thespectaclefactory
      @thespectaclefactory  Před rokem +10

      It's confidence, and understanding that there isn't just one shape that suits each face.
      There's a whole philosophical topic there about how when we look in the mirror, we don't see our true selves. There's no reason why most people wouldn't suit most glasses. They just think they don't.

      @@thespectaclefactorythere’s definitely some truth to this every time I wear glasses i bring a certain confidence and people pick up on it and I get compliments while yes certain glasses suit certain face shapes. You would be doing yourself a disservice by not trying all shapes and styles of glasses

    This is the guide that everyone yearns for. It’s so stressful choosing frames nowadays since there’s an overflow. I guess this video will help many.
    We shall be more than thankful if you do consider in future making two or three separate videos concerning frames for different genders.
    Cheers Robert! You look great in yr new chunky Robert’s!

    Frames are just like faces; all unique if you take into consideration all the aspects. To know whether a frame will fit and look good we have to try it. Plus, we all expect different look so it makes matters worse)))
    If you're looking for ideas on videos, I'd really like to watch some collection of green frames for men. Love this colour. Amazing option for casual wear, don't you think?

    • @thespectaclefactory
      @thespectaclefactory  Před 2 lety +3

      Yeah, green is genuinely one of my favourite colours to recommend, especially to men.
      I would say that you don't have to try frames first -- I have hundreds of International clients who trust me to select their eyewear.

    @neilmartinez143 Před rokem +2

    good video but I have a round wide face so for me, it's not really about personality but more about what frames would fit my application. Based on experience, the small round frames don't look good with my round face. They're either too narrow(left to right) or too small altogether due to my large/wide head.

    • @Ronin-kk4bt
      @Ronin-kk4bt Před 8 měsíci +1

  • @amitandutube
    @amitandutube Před rokem +1

    Nice video. If I might just add, I agree that the rectangle frame is a “classic/safe” look but if you did want to jazz it up a bit you could experiment with colours. The Hania L. by ic Berlin in Harbour Ash colour is a good example I think - I’ve personally tried it on.

    Round looks better on him because he has a square or rectangular shaped head. If you have a round to heart- shaped face like I do, then rectangles are your only choice.

    I hate picking out glasses. I've been wearing contacts for about 20 years and have only had 2 pairs of frames in that time. So since I never wear glasses I feel like they all look bad on me because I'm not used to seeing myself in them.

    • @thespectaclefactory
      @thespectaclefactory  Před rokem +1

      I think picking the right pair of glasses is partly about the right advice, but also partly about confidence.

    How do I figure out good glasses (specially when on a budget)? My current pair is armani which peeled the paint and is horrible, so I learned my lesson, but when you take all those luxottica brands out, what is left? I'm having a hard time finding out.

      @thespectaclefactory  Před rokem +1

      Sorry but I don't believe there is just one shape for anyone. I think it's all about personality. For example, you'll see me on these videos wearing pretty much every shape imaginable, and I think they all 'suit' me, they just give me different looks.
