LeMoir FW 2013
This project was developed for a client who wanted insight into American lifestyle trends in order to create a collection for a commercial Japanese retail store (not available abroad).
The project was divided into 3 themes: Teacher's Pet, Country Store and Trading Post, further explained below.
Deliverables included the concepts shown, retail samples, and an explanation of how purchased samples and additional product images reflected the themes.
Teacher's Pet
This theme focuses on the back to school element of Fall fashion. Inspired by the popularity of 'nerd culture' as evidenced in popular television shows like Big Bang Theory, this theme takes a modern spin on classic prep by incorporating acidic colors, retro-futuristic imagery (like robots) and clever, verbiage-based graphics that celebrate bookishness. Accessories like ties and glasses are important in styling.
This theme also incorporates the recreational side of Back-to-School, including varsity and after-school elements.
