MOREL embraces Pantone’s Color of the Year 2025, Mocha Mousse—a soft chocolate hue that embodies comfort, simplicity, and refinement.
Reflecting sustainability and timeless elegance, this warm shade aligns perfectly with the values and design of MOREL’s latest collection.
MOREL // Model JENNY
The new MOREL collection embraces these qualities and pairs perfectly with Mocha Mousse. A prime example is JENNY, a 100% acetate model enhanced by a laser-engraved browline. This structural detail adds depth to the gaze, while the blend of tones – from white chocolate to dark chocolate – creates a warm and refined harmony.
MOREL // PAROS, under the sun
A standout piece in the collection, PAROS captivates with its timeless butterfly shape and polarized anti-reflective lenses. With its warm, natural tones, this frame is a tribute to chic and sustainable style, perfectly aligned with Pantone Executive Director Leatrice Eiseman’s vision for the new shade: “sophisticated and lush, while remaining an unassuming classic.”
MOREL // Model MAXWELL
The perfect combination ofacetate and metal, MAXWELL stands out with its sleek structure and a look that is both classic and stylish. It pairs colored stainless-steel temples with an acetate front for a striking contrast. Much like Mocha Mousse, MOREL designs durable and versatile pieces, a testament to its expertise as a French eyewear maker since 1880.
The story of Morel begins in 1880, on the heights of the Haut-Jura National Park: the cradle of French eyewear. For four generations, Morel has been designing eyewear with passion and creativity.
The 1880 collection is inspired by the brand’s emblematic models and reinterprets designs at the heart of the trend. Morel’s history is first and foremost that of a family passionate about their work as manufacturers of the eyeglasses they have designed and created since 1880.
The French brand is both creative and trailblazing, making its mark on the public through its iconic models sold in millions of copies throughout the world. 140 years during which the brand has never stopped perfecting its know-how, refining its technical skills and cultivating its creativity.
