With Silhouette Eyewear, You'll See The Lite!
For 51 years, Austrian eyewear designers and makers Silhouette have revolutionised the industry with innovative materials, latest technologies and compelling styles, gracing the faces of Tom Cruise, Cate Blanchett, Patrick Dempsey in Grey's Anatomy, the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, Queen Elizabeth II and even Barbie, the doll.
Pioneering metallic eyewear with coloured rims in the 1970s, Silhouette frames remain one of the lightest in the universe, constructed with special titaniums and plastics and without the usual cumbersome details of screws and hinges.
As founders Arnold and Aneeliese Schmied have always said - Silhouette remains a privately held family business to this day: "We wanted to make eyewear more than just a visual aid. Our goal was to make it an accessory for seeing better and looking better."
