Mainstream fashion has predominantly subscribed to binary and outmoded notions of gender in the past. Thomas Thomas is a fashion label that was set up to challenge the norms of what women can and should wear, by creating bespoke tailored menswear for women. As a startup, Thomas Thomas needed help to develop a brand, positioning, and all of their touch-points. They wanted to create an identity that reflected the core values of their customers – culturally intelligent women, strong in opinion and conviction, sexy in wardrobe and life.

Our idea

The identity conveys a fluid notion of gender, illustrating the idea that you can reflect a feminine side or masculine side; that gender is a changing state. Our subtly subversive tone of voice conveys the brand attitude and challenger positioning. It strikes a chord with customers around the world who write to the brand daily to say how delighted they are to have finally found a brand dedicated to bridging the gap between menswear and womenswear.
