Overview
Artist Michelle Decourcy was launching a new fashion line aimed at hip, independent, professional women. She engaged us to conduct a full brand workshop, getting to the core of what 5Five is. We worked closely with Michelle and her business team to clarify their thinking, articulate the message and craft fashion branding that is every bit as rebellious and forward-thinking as the amazing clothing being designed.

Brand Workshop
The 5Five brand workshop was a 4-hour session that covered all essential elements of creating a solid blueprint for the brand. The session started by defining the company’s mission to create a movement that improves the emotional health of women by reimagining the meaning of fashion and style. Participants then identified visual aesthetics from a shared Pinterest board that inspired the edgy and bold visual direction. Throughout the workshop, we guided brainstorming sessions utilizing various techniques and tools, resulting in insightful conversations that helped shape a unique, rebellious brand that truly represents 5Five.
Collateral Design
Every piece of design collateral presented an opportunity to experiment and explore the possibilities with the established branding. The utilization of bold fonts and impactful photography helped to achieve an editorial yet edgy aesthetic that accurately represented the 5Five brand.
