Dress Shirt Collars for Different Face Shapes

Dress Shirt Collars

There are about 12 collar types for men’s dress shirts.

Dress shirt collars should be considered an extension of a man’s face. It should be treated as a shirt feature that could help improve the facial features. 

Long pointed collars like this 2-button Italian style collar can help create an illusion of length and could suit a man with a rounded face.

Conversely, short collars like this cut away styled collar creates an illusion of width and might very well suit a man with a narrow or rather long face.

Men with oval-shaped, regularly-sized faces may choose any type of collar they want.
