Designer Sunglasses for petite/narrow faces?

Hi Everyone, surely I can't be the only petite woman who loves designer shades! I feel like the top designers simply forget that we exist. It feels like all luxury designers make sunglasses that are around 140mm, which looks absolutely silly on me.

The only brand I've found that meets my needs is Bvlgari. Bless your entire team of designers, Bvlgari, for giving me the gift of sass on sunny days. My current pair is 133 mm - slightly too big, but good enough. I love Bvlgari and will always shop their bags and sunglasses, however, I would like to explore other brands and their personalities of sunglasses as well.

I frequently google search this topic, but all results point to basic/bland sunglasses like ray-bans. I love designer shades and the attitude they add to your look, so 'bland' is not what I had in mind. an example would be shades D&G, but none are less than 140mm. Bummer.

If anyone knows of designer brands that cater to petite faces, sizes of 130mm, please let me know!

Morganthal frederics boutiques carry a wide assortment of designers (plus their own house specialties) in varying shapes and sizes. it’s not on,y the size of the frame but the fit, which they will tailor to your face. My favorite one is on 62nd st and Madison in NYC.
 
I used to be a sunglass sales associate, and the best for small faces I would always recommend was Kate Spade. However, I know that's more contemporary and not luxury per say.
Marc Jacobs also has some smaller ones. And you might check some Asian brands, like Korean or Japanese- I've noticed a lot of quite small frames there but I don't know if they'd meet your needs.
 
I have a little face! I love my Chanel aviators (soft shape, not traditional) and my Freyrs Crystal sunnies. RayBan allows a lot of their frames to be ordered in smaller size, my fave are the Cockpit frames!

Hi, I have a very narrow/small face and buying designer sunglasses is almost impossible for me. Since I need prescription lenses I usually choose designer optical frames and have the specialist put tinted lenses in.
For days with contact lenses I just bought these Chanel, which are also way too big the way they are, but the optician bent them so they fit my face better. Sorry, I don’t know any brand with smaller frames.

To make matters worse the "in" style right now is oversized! I don't even like oversized on larger women faces! For myself now that I need specs... I went with ray ban clubmaster oval which gives a slight cateye vibe and got transitions in them so they turn to sunglasses outside. They also come in straight sunnies though.

You know.....Ray ban has many styles that you wouldn't think are bland if you don't like the standard ray ban....I'll attach some that look more stylish and chic! They all come in smaller size for us petite girls! These are just some of the less boring styles they have!
