Branding Challenge

It was our pleasure to provide our branding services to the Clothing brand startup that brings such a great heritage with it. When we were handed the task of branding for the Clothing startup, we started our work meticulously. Our aim was to empower PENO Clothing Brand and make them to stand up to the other established clothing brands. This called for an extensive branding, advertising and digital/social media marketing campaigns. The comprehensive branding services included the: Logo design, Corporate identity, clothing photoshoot, model shoot, product catalogue design, e-commerce website, shopping bag design, magazine and news paper ad and banner ads.

Our Response

We looked into the craft of Gor Banjara Embroidery. We immediately identified the main attributes of the Indus Valley Civilization, namely minimalism, simplicity, quality and elegance. Peno has the connections with the motifs, structures and designs of Indus Valley. We adhered to this theme combined with the Gor Banjara motifs, while developing our line of communication and advertising.

Logo & Brand Identity Design

Our logo designers created a logo that features blue and dark red colours. Peno being a handicraft clothing brand, the logo features images of mirrors and stitching and embroidery pattern. The blue colour in the logo focuses on trust, wisdom, calmness and humble lifestyle of the region. The red colour reflects on exhilaration, energy and the hard work of the women of the Gor Banjara tribe. The combination of these two colours reflect on the great heritage of the region and these unique people. All the branding and marketing collateral feature the PENO logo in different sizes.

Clothing Photo Shoot

The clothing startup has a wide range of products from a variety of dresses to accessories. Our goal was to cover all the dresses and accessories in the photo shoot. Our Commercial Photography team completed the photo shoot of all the products.

Advertising Solutions

As a Creative advertising agency we designed a wide array of advertising solution for the clothing brand. Since Tradition is related to Heritage we chose the "Indus Valley" as our advertising theme. Also the Gor Banjara culture is related to Indus Valley. The advertisements included Outdoor as well as Digital Ads. Since Mumbai and its suburbs have a high population, it was decided to target these areas with Print and Outdoor advertising. To promote the Clothing brand locally we focused on Newspaper / Magazine Ads. To target the "Millennial" audience we deployed paid advertising campaigns on Social Media, particularly Facebook and Instagram.

Website Design

We designed an e-Commerce website [PenoIndia.com] for the clothing startup brand. The website is built on WordPress and WooCommerce CMS platform. The website is infused with the on-page SEO elements and appropriate content to make it rank higher in search engines, besides being mobile friendly. The e-commerce product content for the website is too created in-house.

The Result

We offered PENO all the services under one roof, from branding to digital marketing. The Peno Clothing Logo reflects the tribal essence in all its ethic glory. The motifs and the colour scheme of the Gor Banjara embroidery style are part of the logo. It has innate beauty and a rustic appeal. Our entire photo shoot captures the product range in all its beauty and detailing. The bag, the brochure and the website, all have uniformity in the bright colour scheme and Gor Banjara motifs. The Peno creative by WDSoft are appreciated for their beauty and quality. Peno is now our esteemed client.
