Lulu Yasmine Brand Story
The Challenge
Lulu Yasmine is a Balinese fashion brand from Parisian-Brazilian-Chinese designer Luiza Chang. Many things make this brand special, from the international experiences that inspire the collections, to the local Balinese artisans who make each piece by hand using traditional techniques, to the company’s commitment to sustainability and empowering women, and the incredible woman behind each piece. Ready for international expansion, Lulu Yasmine came to us for a brand overhaul. With so many positive qualities, and integrity running through every fiber of the brand, we needed to bring poetry to Lulu Yasmine’s story and translate it into timeless visual branding.

The Solution
We distilled Lulu Yasmine’s essence down to three primary attributes: Intentional Adventure, the soul of the brand, Strength in Femininity, and Consciousness and Responsibility. Prioritizing the spirit of adventure in our main communication, we also ensured that branding focused on reclaiming the power in traditionally feminine design, and that sustainability and community responsibility consistently informed our decisions and language. The result is a brand suite that prioritizes both inspiration and being inspired, while incorporating every attribute that sets this brand apart.
Logo
Sophisticated and delicate typography is customized with curves inspired by Eastern archways and tropical botanicals. The result is a unique wordmark that has the elegance and confidence of a high-fashion brand with ownable character inspired by world travel.

Colors
Subtle rose tones take priority, reclaiming classically feminine tones, with slate blue and deep jade adding maturity, contrast and sophistication. Featured colors exist in nebulous worlds – between pink and orange, between blue and green, between saturation and greyscale – to paint the spirit of adventure. Toned whites give depth to even the most minimalist layouts, while jade accents speak to sustainability efforts and social responsibility.

Type
Light italic serif headings are playful and cosmopolitan, complemented by subheadings that contrast delicate typography with a striking and confident all-caps setting. Contemporary body copy pulls a sophisticated look together while facilitating an information hierarchy that prioritizes header text.

Lulu Yasmine Brand Story
Slogan
Lulu Yasmine clothing is handmade using traditional techniques, meaning no two pieces are truly alike – just as each woman who shops Lulu Yasmine carries her own unique journey and beauty. Emphasizing the spirit of adventure – Luiza’s adventures that inspire the clothes, and those that each woman will take in her Lulu Yasmine outfit – this slogan brings together both the originality of each piece and the conscious wandering that makes this brand so special, while honoring the unique beauty of each Lulu Yasmine woman.
"What makes a woman real is what makes her beautiful. Her clothes must not make her, they must simply complement the beauty she naturally has."

Founder and Designer
Social Media
Lulu Yasmine’s Instagram account reflects the brand’s values both by extending its color palette – with sunny rose tones and deep greens as prominent hues – and as an intentional collage of empowered women, worldwide. In addition to providing art direction for collection photoshoots, we hand-picked models and influencers to prioritize racial representation, diverse locales from London, to Bali, to New York, to Minnesota, and professions ranging from ballerina, to teacher, to airline pilot.
Launching at the beginning of COVID-19, we took on an extra challenge of creating new content and embodying the spirit of adventure while we and our influencer network were all on lockdown.
