Creative Brief

CLIENT: Organic by John Patrick CREATIVE BRIEF


Organic by John Patrick is an international fashion brand, with niche luxury appeal. Consequently, it must carefully cultivate its brand community. Through a range of cross-media strategies, they are eager to bring to life the idea of consumer attraction rather than promotion.

BRAND HISTORY
Organic by John Patrick leads by example, out of necessity. From its conception as a brand, it entered a market where there were simply no others with the same priorities and vision.

Through Organic, John Patrick aims to ignite an awakened social awareness, and inspire creative thought and mindfulness in others.

CURRENT BRAND STATUS


The brand strategy is simple: Let people nd us, and they will return to what they have discovered they love. Organic is currently growing internationally, while simultaneously honing its reach by decreasing large department store distribution in favor of hand-picked small boutiques. Consumer contact has expanded in leaps and bounds through e-commerce, which is an increasing focus, with emphasized access to the international customer through free shipping worldwide. Marketing is realized with a quality not quantity mantra, which is applied to strategic but deliberately limited social media contact, for example.

BRAND TONE & AESTHETIC


Organic by John Patrick is a modern fashion brand grounded in ethics and sustainability, with fashion at the forefront of the brand. It is integral to incorporate the brands aesthetic across all platforms of media outreach: fresh and ultra modern, yet simultaneously representing a new classicism.

TARGET AUDIENCE
Socially conscious, fashion-forward individuals internationally. A consumer who has the nancial exibility and desire to spend a little extra for quality they can stand by. Organic by John Patrick is a womens apparel company, and targets all ages.
