In response to consumer desires for lighter weight frames, Colors in Optics introduces Lights by Colors in Optics. A blend of signature retro styles and a vivid color palette, this subcollection of the Colors in Optics Original Collection features 21st century technologies that produce durable, thin and lightweight acetate frames. Created by designer Jade Hutton, the unisex optical collection is available in colors such as cherry, electric pink, neon green and aqua. Frames are crafted for long-lasting wear and comfort, and feature details synonymous with the brand, including rounded temple tip shapes, Colors in Optics logo and double pinheads.
