+ Exploring new cuts and styles,
+ Building garment templates,
+ Setting up tech packs for sourcing and production,
+ Creating finishing details such as woven labels and tags.

CCS Digital Content

SERVICES: Banner Design | Editorial | Branding

CCS/DBS Sale Campaigns

SERVICES: Banner Design | Email Marketing | Branding

OVERVIEW:
While working between both e-commerce retailers presented me the opportunity to create many different promotional campaigns. Since online sales happen so frequently on the web, the challenge was too create something fresh and interesting at every turn.
