How to choose the right beret
Wearing a beret could help modify the proportion of your face shape. And you have three ways of wearing it to achieve this purpose: facing front; putting sideways and pulling back.

On top of that, you should also take your face shape, skin colour and your hairstyle into consideration.

Tip –Face shape
Round face:
If you have round faces, you should choose a crisp beret that won’t lose shape easily. The hard side of the hat should rather facing front to elongate your face. You can also adjust your beret a bit to the side.

Don’t wear it in the “pulling back” way, as your face will be totally exposed.
Long face:
For ladies with long face, I would suggest you to wear your hat more in the front, please do pull down the edge of the hat, in order to cover a bit your forehead.

Don’t choose those with soft materials. The loosen shape won’t help you to create the inverted triangle visual effect on your face.

Square face:
Do choose a beret with a round& smooth brim if your face is square. Or those with soft materials also fit you well. Rather wearing it on the side.

Don’t choose newsboy beret.

Heart/oval face:
Pulling back the beret is suitable for ladies with heart/oval small faces. Or for those who are confident to show their faces.

But if you really do have very slim small face, don’t choose big heavy berets or berets with huge brims, your face will disappear in your hat.

Tip-Colour protocol
Choosing the right colour to wear is also important. As for beret, you should match the beret colour to your skin colour.
Our advice
Yellowish skin: don’t wear yellow/green hats.

Pale/white skin: lots of colours will fit. But better avoid white hats; otherwise you will look unhealthy and paler than ever.
