BRAND EXTENSION
PROJECT DESCRIPTION | to fully research a brand and find an opportunity, influenced by a social trend, for them to expand or extend their brand to a different market or consumer while still maintaining the brand aesthetic and essence. BRAND | Tory Burch, an American lifestyle brand, was launched in 2004 by the designer herself. The luxury lifestyle brand is defined by classic American Sportswear with a bohemian twist. Tory Burch is known for her play on color, prints, and eclectic details.
Children’
s wear

O pport unit y
Children are becoming more and more adamant on dressing themselves and picking out their own clothes. Tory Burch can introduce a children’s wear line that embodies the brand aesthetic and incorporates the use of pattern and eclectic details that Tory Burch is known for. This children’s wear line will integrate basics with lots of prints that can be mixed and matched. Also, this line will offer both girls and boys pieces that can coordinate with each other. We want to keep this collection financially attainable while still embodying the exclusivity of the Tory Burch brand.
Moder n Family Modern Family Transition deals with the new shift from high to low morality and fertility levels. This is causing a shift to have smaller family sizes due to not feeling pressured to have big families. Parents can develop stronger emotional ties and spend more time with children as well as the siblings spending more time together. Modernization creates higher demand for individual development and exploring creativity. With this new focus, children will be able to develop more of an imagination while using their creative minds.
