How to Choose the Best Collar Styles for Your Face Shape

Many men use traditional point collar and button-down collar dress shirts as their wardrobe staple. It is understandable because in most cases they are all you can find in your local department store. The problem is that these collar styles may not be the best choice for you.

Here is a simple guide to help you decide which collar style looks best on you.

Round Face

You have full cheeks with a rounded jaw line. Narrow point collars help to thin and elongate a round face. The best collar styles for you have straight points with a traditional or narrow spread. Stick to a traditional point for versatility, button down and hidden button down for a sportier look, narrow point for a fashion look and tab collar for a formal, dressy look.

Best Collars

Button Down Collar

Narrow Point

Hidden Button Down

Tab Collar

Avoid spread collars; they make your face appear wider and fuller.

Worst Collars


Medium Spread

Wide Spread

Varsity Spread

Square Face

You have a square jaw line, which gives your face a broad, square, angular appearance. Square faces look best wearing traditional point collar shirts for versatility, narrow point collars for a fashion look, button down and hidden button down for a sporty look and tab collar shirts for a formal look.

You have pronounced cheekbones and a narrow, pointed chin, which gives your face a `diamond shape`. To make your jaw line appear wider, choose shirts with a medium spread to wide spread collar.

Oblong Face

Oblong faces tend to appear long with a u-shaped jaw line. You need collars with a wider spread to give your face the appearance of fullness. Choose medium spread collars for everyday and wide spread collars for a formal look.
