Each area, or room, within the space speaks a different

vintage style but with modern personality. There is a room within the overall boutique that will speak every female’s personality they are looking to voice. The experts are easily approachable will answer your fashion question, will wait on you hand and foot, and possibly provide you a glass a wine while you experience

a:garde. The colors speak a different language in each room. One room will support a cool palette while another will support a vibrant bold palette.

The CMYK values are for print applications, and the RGB and hex # values for on screen.

pantone equivalent base colors These equivalents are for reproduction processes that require Pantone specifications, such as Pantone colors used in printing or exhibition stand text.

typeface

web type

Helvetica has been selected as the boutique’s primary typeface and is use for promotional materials that are produced in-house.

New refinements put Helvetica in the sans serif sub-category of neo-grotesque. Helvetica is an all-purpose type design that can deliver practically any message clearly and efficiently. It should be used for all our produced communications.

For all internet applications use Verdana, a Humanist Sans Serif Type. Verdana was designed to be readable at small sizes on a computer screen. The lack of serifs, large x-height, wide proportions, loose letter-spacing, large counters, and emphasized distinctions between similarly-shaped characters are chosen to increase legibility.

employee uniforms

The intent for the uniforms is that the associate/worker needs to wear a core color item and can mix it up with any of their personal attire that speaks who they are and what fashion they represent.

Other employee articles are in the process of being developed for the diverse seasons.
