Lovely Grazyna posing in an early pair of glasses made by the famous Silhouette company from Innsbruck, Austria. The frame was used in an advertisement (1972 or 1973), showing that it was time to replace the outdated cat eye frames and small frames from the mid 1960's for the new big frames. Silhouette had their major breakthrough in the slipstream of Christian Dior in 1976 and for the next fifteen years these companies were leading in the industry. Note the transitions lenses in this portrait. This was another invention made in the 1970's. I like the additional touch of mystery added to this portrait by the transition lenses. Grazyna remarked that the glasses gave her perfect eyesight.
