- L'Agent by Agent ProvocateurEvolving a wholesale range into a credible brand Diffusion line L’Agent by Agent Provocateur is aimed at a wider, more price-sensitive audience than its “elder sister” brand. When I joined the company in autumn 2013, stand-alone boutiques and e-commerce had been directed to launch within a year. A logo and core colour, brand advocacy website and campaign photography had been established that did not adequately meet the demands of a retail brand aimed at a savvy, 20-something audience.
- Agent Provocateur – Wanted BadlyA Valentines mystery Agent Provocateur’s S/S 2015 collection borrows inspiration from the mercurial female characters of crime thrillers by David Lynch and Brian de Palma. Casting Naomi Campbell in the role of femme fatale, the campaign art direction follows her trail as she executes a crime of passion.
- Umbro Speciali '92 CollectionRedefining a British footballing icon 2012 marked the 20th anniversary of iconic football boot, the Speciali. Recognising an opportunity, Umbro designer Dan Farron and I teamed up to present a campaign proposition to the brand's creative director. Selecting five silhouettes from the Umbro archive, we presented a premium leather collection that would align Umbro’s long-term “Tailored By” strategy while celebrating the craft, innovation, and history of the boot that embodies Umbro’s approach to the beautiful game.
