Almost any hat style works well for oval faces, so experiment with different shapes and sizes to match your hat to your outfit or mood.
Ideal hats for long faces balance proportions and add width to the face. Wide-brimmed hats, such as sun hats or Panama hats, create this balance.
Hats for round face shapes will generally include wide-brimmed hats like a fedora, wide-brim trilby, or a fuller shaped cap, like our Sandwich and Muirfield caps, to add definition and elongate your silhouette.
Wear hats with rounded or curved edges to soften strong angles and create flattering, soft shapes.
Heart-shaped faces typically look stunning in hats with medium brims. Most hat styles work well, so experiment.
The narrower-brimmed hats are ideal for a slimmer frame.
In general, if you are tall, you should not wear small hats and vice versa. This is true to some extent, but the most important aspect is the confidence your hat gives you.

Hat sizes are often measured in one of three ways:
The imperial system is used to measure head diameter in inches, which normally ranges between 6.5 and 8.
North Americans use the imperial system, although their sizes are an eighth of an inch larger.
European/Metric: Uses the metric system to measure head circumference in centimetres, which normally range from 53 to 65.
At Lock & Co., hat sizes range from small/55 cm to xx-large/64 cm.
