• •Resilience/Defiance

Best Practices

• •Embrace the Core Philosophy: Always circle back to the "live fully because life is finite" ethos. Every piece of copy should, in some way, echo this sentiment, whether overtly or subtly. Use words that evoke urgency, action, and authenticity.
• •Use Strong, Active Voice: Avoid passive language. The brand is about taking control and living intentionally. Copy should be direct, confident, and impactful (e.g., "Wear your story" vs. "Our clothes help you show your story").
• •Be Unapologetically Bold (but not offensive): The tone is edgy and can be provocative. Don't shy away from language that challenges or makes people think. However, maintain a line so as not to alienate a broader potential audience unnecessarily with overly aggressive or offensive messaging. The "edge" should come from thoughtful rebellion, not crassness.
• •Keep it Concise and Punchy: Especially for social media and ad copy, short, memorable phrases that pack a punch will be more effective. Reflect the often-blunt nature of confronting big ideas like mortality.
• •Incorporate Relevant Slang/Lingo (Authentically): If targeting a younger demographic, subtly incorporating current, relevant slang or terminology can enhance relatability. However, this must be done authentically and not feel forced or outdated. The primary voice should still be rooted in the brand's core defiant and thoughtful philosophy.
