square frames

Angular eyewear shape

Square frames are eyeglasses or sunglasses with a rectangular or boxy shape rather than round or oval.

The term appears in fashion contexts describing face-flattering styles: Square frames work well with round faces.

Square frames suggest a bolder, more angular aesthetic than softer shapes.
