Oval: Ovals can wear almost any style, but hats with large brims look best.

Round: Medium and small brimmed hats and bucket shapes that are asymmetrical counter the roundness. Avoid berets, as they fail to give that illusive height.

Long: Medium to wide brims worn straight or forward on the head cut the length, so that the face doesn't look like an egg.

Square: Upturned brims work best; experiment with cloche styles.

Wide: Styles such as Bretons and pillboxes worn back on the head help in countering the width of the face.

Heart: Look for profile-style hats or hats with wide-brims folded up on one side.
