Discover Luca Costa Which frame shape suits your face? Find the perfect glasses for your face Few things impact a first impression as clearly as a pair of glasses. They not only shape how you see – but how you are seen. A well-chosen frame enhances your features, balances your facial proportions, and completes your style. An incorrect shape, however, can disrupt symmetry and draw attention away from your eyes. At Luca & Luce, we believe in precision – not just in optics, but in aesthetics. That's why Luca Costa, our classic aviator in handmade acetate, is designed to fit more face shapes than perhaps any other model. With dimensions of 55–16–145 and a weight of just 26 grams, it represents a balance between technical perfection and timeless elegance. The aviator shape has a unique ability: it unites opposites. Soft, yet defined. Elegant, yet informal. The teardrop shape follows the natural lines of the face, ensuring the expression always appears balanced and harmonious. Where many modern frames exaggerate either angles or curves, the aviator sits perfectly in between. It adds height and definition to round faces, softness to angular features, and evens out asymmetry. It suits men and women equally well – which is precisely why it has been a constant companion for pilots, designers, and iconic actors for decades. But not all aviators are created equal. Proportions are everything. Size explained The numbers you see on the inside of a glasses frame are not random – they are millimeter measurements that determine the fit. At Luca & Luce, we have spent time finding the optimal balance between aesthetics and comfort. 55 mm lens width provides the right balance between coverage and definition. It suits both narrower and wider faces, creating a refined line without being overpowering. 16 mm bridge width ensures secure contact with the nose bridge without pinching. The bridge sits harmoniously, so the glasses stay in place even during movement. 145 mm temple length provides stability behind the ear, ensuring the glasses rest comfortably without pressure points. Together, this gives a total width of approximately 138–140 mm – the sweet spot for a universal fit.

It's not just about comfort – but about feeling. A lightweight pair of glasses accompanies you without reminding you that you're wearing them. They sit there as a natural extension of your face, balanced, secure, and effortless. When glasses are properly constructed, you don't notice them. You only notice how the world looks clearer, how the day feels lighter. A heavy frame constantly reminds you of its presence – a light frame lets you forget it. And the moment you forget it, you know the design works. This is precisely what we mean by luxury. Not flashy details, but precision in material, weight distribution, and the balance between aesthetics and function. Luxury is about how something feels – not how it shouts. Glasses are not about following trends – but finding a lasting form. Luca Costa is an expression of the timeless: design that doesn't scream for attention, but gets it naturally. It suits a shirt and suit, but also a T-shirt and spring jacket. It's not men's glasses or women's glasses – it's balanced. Light. Comfortable. Refined. Find your ideal shape here This is important! An oval face is the most balanced shape – almost anything suits it. The aviator enhances the expression without disturbing symmetry. If you have a round face, we want to add definition and height. Luca Costa provides vertical direction and a narrower optical impression – while the soft lines keep the expression natural. Angular features thrive best with contrast. The curved lines of an aviator soften the angles and provide wholeness. A wide forehead and narrow chin, better known as a heart shape, find balance in the aviator's teardrop shape. It shifts the center of gravity downwards and creates calmness in the face. Finally, we recommend the same aviator shape for those with a diamond-shaped face. It not only helps lift the cheekbones and smooths the contrast between a narrow forehead and chin, but also provides a harmonious flow to the face. Glasses from Norway Luca Costa bears the "Designed in Oslo" mark because it was created here – at the intersection of Nordic precision and Italian warmth. The design is inspired by classic European aviators, but refined with modern proportions and lightness. Each pair of glasses comes with hand-polished details, a gold-colored "LL" emblem, and optically accurate lenses that protect against UV radiation without distorting colors. They feel solid, yet look elegant – exactly how we believe modern luxury should be.
