You'll look best in hats with wide brims, cowboy hats, sun hats, or hats that cut across the forehead, to shorten the potentially exaggerated effect of a long face. Avoid beanies for this very reason.

A squared face has the benefit of strong, angular facial features, which can be overly exaggerated with hats that sport similar angles. To avoid overkill, soften them a bit with floppy or wide brims. A cloche is also a great fit for this distinctive face shape.

A person with an oval face enjoys the versatility of choice, as an oval face goes with nearly every style.

If you have a round face you should use a top hat (lengthens the face) and small brim (helps the face look more narrow) with angled cut. Avoid flat hats.

Diamond Shape

For a diamond-shaped face, how you wear the hat may be as important as which hat you wear. Because a diamond face has width around the top part of the head and a narrower jawline,, wearing a hat further back on the head can mitigate the potential for a shortened face. Pick a pull-on you can style further back or something with a shallow crown, like a pork pie
