Brand Tone

Empowering, rebellious, and mysterious. Confident and direct, yet maintains an aura of mystique. Inclusive of various alternative subcultures, speaking to the audience as insiders of a shared identity. Aspirational, encouraging followers to express their boldest selves.

Brand Values

• •Individuality and Self-Expression
• •Confidence and Empowerment
• •Community
• •Quality and Aesthetic Cohesion

Best Practices

• •Use Empowering and Active Language: Employ strong verbs and commanding statements. Phrases like "Unleash," "Command," "Define," and "Become" align with the brand's empowering value.
• •Speak from an 'Insider' Perspective: Use language that resonates with the subcultures you serve. Avoid overly explaining the aesthetic; assume your audience is already part of the culture.
• •Ask Engaging Questions: Prompt interaction by asking questions that invite self-expression, such as "What does your power look like?" or "Which piece defines your style?"
• •Maintain a Mysterious Aura: Keep some copy short, cryptic, and impactful. Not everything needs a long explanation. Let the visuals and a short, sharp statement do the talking.
• •Center the Customer as the Protagonist: Frame the brand's products as tools for the customer's own journey of self-expression. The focus should be on how the clothing makes them feel and who they become when they wear it.
