The breakthrough Color Groove feature from Silhouette is bursting with character

Using the latest hand-applied techniques, the purist with Color Groove collection matches a playful palette with true personalization.

Featuring vibrant tones applied by hand for the very first time, the Purist with Color
Groove collection by Silhouette offers the freedom to create styles as unique as you
are. Expressive shapes and a spellbinding spectrum inspired by light art channel the
spirit of individualism in a minimalist and modern line-up.

This latest drop in the core range comprises a dazzling array of shapes and colors
offering a fresh spin on the brand’s famous rimless designs. Select from expressive
oversize and cat-eye styles suited to women, or two sophisticated but subtly
different geometric designs for men.

The Color Groove feature is then expertly applied by ultrafine needles to the lens
edge with exquisite craftsmanship. Combine with any one of four exclusive finishes
– exotic Papaya, vibrant Orchid, exciting Curaçao and fresh Jungle – for a confident
yet laid-back look you can make your own.

Silhouette has set the benchmark for sophisticated eyewear since 1964, but the
Purist with Color Groove collection adds a personalized twist with a sprinkle of subtle
eccentricity. Taking design cues from optical illusions, contrasting elements change
depending on where they are viewed from.

Empowered by lightness, all configurations feature flexible titanium temples for total
comfort. Maintenance-free hinges complement the dynamic lines from front to end.
Silhouette’s commitment to sustainability sees temples and hinges fixed without
glue.

Each style can also be specified with unique 100% Silhouette lenses made to measure
by lens lab glass specialists. Mapped to meet the individual needs of the wearer and
optimize their peripheral vision, the process is perfectly coordinated and calculated
to deliver the ultimate viewing experience.

This helps opticians to give an extraordinarily individual consultation. At the same
time, customers can use an app to select from hundreds of lens shapes and previews
how the lenses will look in their personal prescription.
