Your petite face is beautiful, now you can give it the frame it deserves.
Cat-eye sunglasses for smaller face shapes, scaled for a secure fit and flattering fit
Most sunglasses don’t fit small faces because they are designed with wider frame widths, longer temple arms, and larger lens proportions. This causes the sunglasses to sit too wide, fall off your face, slide down your nose, and feel uncomfortable.
If your sunglasses always feel too big or never stay in place, this is why.
ello sunglasses are designed for petite faces
Sunglasses for petite faces should fit without slipping or falling off thanks to smaller frame widths and narrower nose bridges built for smaller facial proportions.
A proper fit feels secure, balanced, and comfortable all day.
Gorgeous glasses. I have a small face and bought them for apres ski and Summer activities. They look good, they're stylish and love wearing them. They are such a good fit ! Would recommend.
I was so happy to find this company. Other sunglasses were so big, I could hardly wear them. Thank you!
I have struggled to find sunglasses that fit my small/narrow face my entire life. I am so happy to have finally found these that not only fit but are also really nice quality. Excited to become a confident sunglass wearer! Excellent customer service as well. Highly recommend.
These fit perfectly and I love how sturdy these glasses are, not flimsy like most sunglasses on the market. Highly recommend!
I have been wearing these sunglasses nonstop since I got them a few weeks ago. They are very flattering on my face, and I love the pink color on the frame as well as the beautiful tones of the lens. There are a classic style, but yet they still have some uniqueness to them. Looking through them makes everything look more beautiful. These sunglasses seem to go with everything I'm wearing lately. I really like the case that they came with. They were also very affordable compared to my typical brands. I already bought another pair, the Pebble Beach. It's much easier for me to find flattering styles when everything is made for small faces! I highly recommend these sunglasses and this brand in general.
Gorgeous glasses ! I have a small face and sunglasses always look HUGE when I try them on .. these are perfection! Thank you.
I bought these after trying to find small fit frames that weren't child sun glasses in the UK. I bought hoping that they would fit. They look great. The one thing that I would improve is to have some shaping to the lenses to reduce glare whilst wearing as all my other glasses have a shaped lens with some curvature to the lens, rather than a flat one.
Love the fit, the clarity and have received so many compliments on the look of the glasses!
These sunglasses are the first I’ve found in my adult life that are truly designed for narrow faces, that are still stylish! I love them and the customer service is amazing - one pair had an arm that was a bit stretched out and in order to make it right they asked me to give them time to send me a pair from the upcoming batch instead of risking the same thing! Very quality product and service… 10/10 recommend!
They are still a little bit big on my face but they are lightweight and comfortable and far more "adult" style than most things that fit my face.
Wow — I finally found some sunnies that actually fit my face well! No more bug eyes!!! So happy I decided to say hello to Ello! 😎
Wow! High quality, polarized sunglasses designed to fit petite faces - yes, please! I own the pebble beach in tortoise and they are great! I did need to take them to an optician to bend in the side arms slightly for a snugger fit on my head, but it was worth it. I’m so happy with my new sunnies and wear them everyday. Thanks Ello for making such a great product! Definitely recommend.
Sunglasses slip on small faces because longer temple arms are designed for larger head sizes and do not provide a secure fit. When the temples are too long, the frames sit loosely and slide down your nose throughout the day.
Shorter temple arms create a more secure, balanced fit that stays in place without slipping or falling off.
If your sunglasses constantly slide down, the temple length is likely too long for your face.

Why did we create these sunglasses?
We created sunglasses for petite faces because most standard sunglasses are designed for wider facial proportions, longer temple lengths, and larger frame widths. That often leaves people with petite faces, smaller head sizes, and narrow facial proportions dealing with slipping frames and poor overall fit. At ello, we design frames specifically for petite faces from the very beginning — creating balanced proportions, secure comfort, and styles that actually fit smaller faces properly.
What inspired us to do things differently?
ello sunglasses was inspired by the difficulty of finding high-quality sunglasses that properly fit petite faces and smaller head sizes. The idea of ello sunglasses started with a forgotten pair of sunglasses on our wedding trip—a five-day trek through Grand Teton National Park. After hours of searching local shops, everything our co-founder, Julie, tried was too big, too flimsy, or simply not made for her. That moment—sun-squinty and a little frustrated—sparked an idea: why isn’t anyone making high-quality sunglasses for smaller faces?
Back in Florida, we turned that mishap into a mission. From dog walks to park days, our lifestyle inspired every design—and ello was born to make petite-fit sunglasses that feel as good as they look.
Who are these sunglasses for?
Sunglasses for petite faces are made for anyone with a small face, narrow face or smaller head size who is tired of compromising on fit. If frames constantly slip, sit too wide, or feel too big ello is for you. We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all — especially not when it comes to what frames for petite faces and smaller facial proportions.
What makes ello different?
ello sunglasses are designed specifically for petite faces using balanced frame widths, shorter temple lengths, and properly scaled lens proportions. Every frame is created for smaller heads, narrow facial features, and people who struggle with oversized sunglasses that constantly slip or sit too wide.
