Hat Guide by Face Shape

The Art of the Hat: Choosing the Right Style for Your Face Shape

A beautifully crafted hat does more than complete a look - it defines it. At Fedora Designs, we believe that every face tells a story, and the right silhouette enhances its natural look. This guide is designed to help you select the perfect hat for your face shape.


✧ Oval Face Shape

Versatile. Balanced. Timeless.

An oval face is a milliner’s dream - nearly every hat style flatters your proportions. This is your opportunity to explore.

Recommended Styles:
Wide-brim fedoras, structured caps, berets, or even dramatic, high-crown silhouettes.


✧ Round Face Shape

Soft. Symmetrical. Playfully chic.

Elongate your features and add a touch of structure with angular shapes and height.

Recommended Styles:
Medium-to-high crown fedoras, asymmetrical brims, or any style that draws the eye upward.


✧ Square Face Shape

Strong. Sculpted. Striking.

Soften bold features with fluid lines and curves. Think gentle, romantic silhouettes.

Recommended Styles:
Floppy brims, round crowns, or soft panamas with movement.


✧ Heart-Shaped Face

Delicate. Bold. Beautifully defined.

Balance a broader forehead and pointed chin with styles that draw attention to the eyes and cheekbones.

Recommended Styles:
Medium-brim fedoras, boater hats, or cowboy style crowns that offer subtle structure.


✧ Long Face Shape

Elegant. Elongated. Effortlessly refined.

Add balance and width with brims that stretch outward rather than upward.

Recommended Styles:
Flat brims, wide-brimmed fedoras, or structured newsboy caps.
