Last week marked the launch of Amanda Wakeley’s new website, perfectly aligned in time with London Fashion Week’s 25th anniversary. James lead the creative team at Pod1 to deliver a website utilising the wordpress platform, rebuilding the brand experience that imprints Amanda Wakeley’s brand presence online. We identified the iconic diagonal cut of Amanda Wakeley’s logo as the key brand asset which formed the basis of our art direction.
