Worldly

BEFORE: A highly-technical value-proposition and visual identity

In 2023, the leading sustainability data platform in the apparel industry needed a new identity.

As Director of Brand and Content, I led a year-long relaunch (along side Watson Creative) to give the technology behind the Higg Index a name, look, and story of its own.

We crafted a future-forward story about a generational shift in how consumer goods are made — and how businesses need to prepare now.

We created an urgent color palette, angular letterforms, and a ripple motif to indicate finding patterns in chaos.

And our new name? Worldly.

AFTER: Universal and urgent

 

Worldly debuted in spring of 2023. The campaign included media takeovers of industry publications, programmatic ads, gated content for lead generation, and a new brand manifesto video (which I scripted).

Ads and content lead with the ultimate brand promise in sustainability data: to know what’s needed to get ahead in this new era of consumer goods.

 

The campaign earned positive coverage in Vogue Business and Business of Fashion, and led to a 175% growth of social following, tenfold increase in site traffic, and 250k+ brand video views within a month.
