Do you need to save face? In a new Chinese study analysing the impact of eyeglass shapes on facial appeal, glasses with frames of similar height and width decreased men’s perceived attractiveness. Use the chart below to select a sexier shape for your shades—and see how your mug scores in other measures of sex appeal.
