Stella McCartney – Sustainability

‘A new visual identity has been imagined by contemporary photographer Viviane Sassen. Our goal is to convey the symbiotic nature of humans, nature and animals and illustrate that in order to fully protect and care for ourselves we must also nurture and protect the world that we live in as we are one and the same. Through this visual language, we hope to highlight our many innovative and forward-thinking sustainable practices.’ Stella McCartney – World of Sustainability

This conceptual video represents the launch of Stella McCartney’s World of Sustainability. It is a platform that is dedicated to inform the consumers of all the sustainable practices in the brand. I love how it’s a very peaceful film, using natural light along with the added bright colours of the plastic shapes reflecting from the sun. It shows beautiful landscapes, promoting nature in it’s best light along with the powerful movements of the colourful fabrics in the wind. The close ups of the human form tastefully represent the symbiotic nature of humans, reminding us that we must protect ourselves as well as the world we live in. I love the close ups of the nature and the sea, I feel it gives a calm representation of the problems in the industry. I initially envisioned my campaign to have a livelier feel than this specific video, although it has opened my mind to the possibility of exhibiting a conceptual approach. This will represented the positive outcomes rather than the negative effects.

 

Monki – The Lazy Loop

The lazy loop is a campaign by Monki to encourage people to recycle their clothing, offering a system where you can drop off any clothing at their stores and they will recycle them for you. They’re promoting the lazy loop ‘support good materials – was cooler – recycle repeat’.

‘Life moves in circles, fashion should too. Enter the Lazy Loop: easy ways to make fashion more sustainable. From things we’re working on at Monki, to things you can do as a fashion lover and things we can do together.’

This campaign video features a mixture of various, young, fashion forward individuals from different ethnic backgrounds. I love how the campaign uses bright, bold colours to attract attention and I feel it targets the millennial demographic perfectly. I will take inspiration from this campaign video, using interesting locations, bright colours and young, various individuals to engage with the millennial target audience to promote the reuse of clothing to benefit the environment and their future.

 

Fashion Revolution Event – Social Media Mock Ups

The event will use social media to communicate the event. Apart from the main Fashion Revolution website, the event will be posted all the organisations social media with Instagram and Twitter being the main two sources. Instagram will allow people not attending the event to be able to view clips of the event using the Instagram live story. Twitter will be used for updating the public on any new announcements for the event including what brands will attend and guest speakers etc.

Event Poster

When creating the poster for the event I wanted to ensure that it was eye catching and colourful with interesting typography. I decided to use images from the brands that will be presented at the event and also placing them in sharp, geometric shapes as many of the brands are using science to create these innovative materials. I also wanted to incorporate a little touch nature therefore I added the delicate flower sketch into the poster. The reason for the rectangle shape in the poster was to reflect the Fashion Revolution logo into the design.

 

 

Idea 2

An event for Fashion Revolution promoting sustainable fashion brands and new innovative materials to encourage consumers to source sustainably and educate them in the future of fashion. The event will include a range of sustainable brands that will be presenting their collections on the catwalk and also answering any questions and selling items during the event. There will be guest speakers including fashion environmental activist giving their opinions and sharing their knowledge on the current fashion global situation. This is aiming to raise awareness of fast fashion and over consumption, hearing the truth about the current situation in the fashion industry from experts will hopefully encourage change.

One of the main communications for the event will be a poster that will be presented through London in store windows, billboards and tube stations which ensures plenty of footfall. There will also be a press release that will be sent to many editors to certify press coverage of the event.

As Facebook is Fashion Revolution’s most followed social media platform we will be using Facebook as our main platform along with Instagram and Twitter. Updating on any new guests/brands that are joining the event. These platforms will also be used to upload live videos of the guest speakers, catwalks etc.
