Brand Design Consulting

La consulenza di brand design è il punto di partenza essenziale per ogni nostro progetto di affiancamento. Questo primo passo crea il tuo "Brand Code", un documento strategico che definisce l'essenza, le caratteristiche distintive e i valori chiave del tuo marchio. Il Brand Code guida ogni successiva scelta di design, comunicazione e posizionamento, assicurando coerenza e autenticità in ogni aspetto del tuo progetto imprenditoriale.

I nostri esperti ti guideranno nella selezione dei tessuti più adatti, nella definizione dei tagli e dei dettagli che renderanno ogni capo unico e irresistibile. Con passione e competenza, trasformiamo la tua idea in una collezione pronta per il mercato, curata in ogni dettaglio e capace di conquistare il cuore del tuo pubblico.

CREARE DEI PRODOTTI È SOLO UNA PARTE DEL BUSINESS DELLA MODA
AND IF YOU THEN HAVE NO IDEA ABOUT HOW TO SELL IT?

We at Be a Designer have worked closely for years with international designers and creatives to find an approach to building a fashion brand that would work even 'small' with limited budgets and also allowed young designers to create and sell their collections on the market.

What all the greatest fashion designers in history have in common is that they have been not only great creators but also great entrepreneurs and have combined their artistic sensitivity, their mastery of taste and their research into the choice of fabrics, patterns and cuts in a skilfully blended alchemy: the creation of a brand.
