Merging Legacy with Modern Fashion Tech

As the lead designer, the goal was to execute a comprehensive brand refresh for Colect, a customizable and modern B2B webshop and sales app.

The refresh needed to honor the company’s established history while signaling its evolution and alignment with contemporary trends in the fashion industry.

The central concept was inspired by bringing the immersive experience of a fashion runway into the store digitally, with clean, modern design elements emphasizing frames to guide the viewer's focus to the products.
