RES/REI collection inspired by Northern Lights

RES/REI presents Limited Edition inspired by the natural light display of the Northern Lights

The collection, announced this week, is inspired by the colours of the Northern Lights and the story behind the word Aurora, in Finnish Revontulet, meaning Fox Fire.

Revontulet comes from the ancient belief that the Northern Lights are caused by a fox’s tail striking the ground causing trails of sparks which spread to the sky. This limited edition draws on the enchanting colours in this natural light display, and presents a series of frames which seamlessly combine Nordic influences with the brand’s passion for original colour mixes and dedicated craftsmanship. Above: the frames feature discreet colour schemes inspired by the natural “play of lights” – model 2442

‘Northern Lights’ by RES/REI comprises two exclusive optical frames that pay homage to the brand’s iconic designs. The first shape is a refined panto silhouette, embracing a feminine allure, while the second is a rounded form with a faceted upper part that exudes sophistication.

Aurora Green blends shiny greens, deep blues, and vibrant hues inspired by the northern lights for a sophisticated touch. Orchid Twilight captures the aurora’s pink tones, fusing femininity with cutting-edge style. Nordic Sunset evokes the Arctic’s warm sunsets, with pinks and oranges reflecting timeless elegance and modern trends.
