A Great British Brand: New Look Required

Aquascutum is a great British Brand...and its now being sold again to another conglomerate who will bring the brand up to its biggest competitor, BURBERRY. 

Watching this transformation over the next few years will be interesting as the brand itself suffers identity, lack of vision, and a pronounced lack of interest from the buyers they need the most:  young, hip, luxury buyers who are buying the history, craftsmanship, luxury materials and don't want to look like their mothers.  The raincoat, the product that re-launched Burberry is a good bet to do the same for Aquascutum. Using digital campaigns will also be critical for them to revive their brand as well.  We'll keep watch and keep you posted as the story continues...

Vogue Magazine Debut: Netherlands

The New Vogue Issue debuts in the Netherlands.  The design world has always taken its cues from the Northern countries.  Now that VOGUE has arrived there, things will get interesting.  The brand, worldwide in scope keeps its platforms simliar in all markets, but regional languages, features, street culture and news will make this issue a definitive reflection of the Northern European Experience.
The Cover has three lovely looks for spring including a 1950s Dior shape, spring suit and trends in patterns.  Three looks, three ways to look at spring season.

Beautiful!
