Coleção Grau Acetato

Acetate gives a frame enough visible surface to show color, transparency and pattern clearly. The same material can look understated in a slim neutral frame or much more expressive in a thick, saturated design.

• Square frames emphasize straight lines and defined corners.
• Round frames create a continuous curved outline.
• Oval frames soften the look with a lower, wider curve.
• Pilot shapes add width across the upper lens and taper toward the lower edge.
• Transparent acetate reduces contrast against the face.
• Tortoise and multitone finishes introduce variation across the frame.

Frame thickness matters as much as shape. A substantial rim makes the glasses a stronger visual feature, while a slimmer rim keeps the outline more restrained.

Use face-shape guidance as a starting point, then confirm the actual fit. The bridge should sit steadily, the temples should not press, and the lower edge should clear the cheeks during normal movement.

Round Faces
Square frames can introduce straighter lines and clearer corners. A pilot shape can also add width through the upper part of the frame.

Square Faces
Round or oval frames can provide contrast to a defined jawline. Softened square corners are another option if you prefer a structured look.

Oval Faces
Square, round, oval and pilot shapes can all work. Choose the frame depth and thickness according to how much emphasis you want around the eyes.

Long Faces
A deeper lens or wider pilot shape can occupy more vertical and horizontal space. Very shallow frames may make the face appear longer.

Heart-Shaped Faces
Round or oval shapes can soften a broader forehead. If you prefer square or pilot frames, look for a balanced upper width rather than an especially heavy brow.

Always compare the total width, bridge measurement and temple length with a pair that already fits comfortably.

Acetate makes small changes in color and thickness easy to notice, so consider the frame as part of your overall styling rather than choosing by shape alone.

• Black creates the strongest and most graphic outline.
• Tortoise adds warmth and breaks up broad frame surfaces.
• Brown and grey provide softer alternatives to black.
• Transparent and translucent tones allow more of the face to remain visible.
• Blue, green, orange, red, white or yellow make the glasses a clearer focal point.
• A thicker rim increases visual weight.
• A slimmer rim keeps bold colors more controlled.
• A wider or deeper frame creates more presence, while a compact frame feels more precise.

Color does not determine fit. Check the measurements and bridge position before deciding between two finishes of the same general style.
