Some sunglasses are made to blend in. These clearly missed that meeting.
Original vintage Silhouette Mod. 565 sunglasses from the 1970s, featuring oversized oval frames in translucent rose-amber tones, smoky grey-green lenses and distinctive silver-tone metal detailing.
The circular metal accents at the temples give these sunglasses their unmistakable character. A bold example of 1970s eyewear, when even the smallest details had something to say.
