Full impact
Identifying colours and trends two years ahead of the season is just one part of my skill set. The other part, is to transform knowledge into recommendations and actions for my clients across all sectors: manufacturers; retailers and fashion designers by:
- translating trends to create newness is also about understanding market levels and pertinent interpretation
- creating personalised seasonal colour palettes, advising clients on colour combinations, proportions and relevant key colours. Getting all this right is critical to commercial success
- seasonal colour merchandising for retail
- revisiting client’s existing colour palette and advising what to add or drop
- creating trend mood-boards
- writing targeted retail reports with photos
