nose shape
Bridge and tip
Nose shape refers to the physical form and contour of the nose, including its width, length, bridge profile, and tip configuration.
People describe nose shapes with terms like Roman, aquiline, button, or upturned.
The phrase appears in discussions of facial features, plastic surgery consultations, and—controversially—in outdated racial classification systems: She inherited her father's nose shape.
