Elegance and rare craftmanship from the talented dressmaker, Dress by Ines

I am always very honoured when people choose me to design their visual identity and the build of a new website for them.

Katherine, the owner of Dress by Ines, approached me and she wanted to jump on the Squarespace platform. I was giving free artistic hands with a mission of providing her with an sophisticated and elegant profile.

I left from our meeting with a clear sense of graphical direction, some handdrawn sketches from her of a possible new logo and was ready to go to work! :-)

Soft, feminine and minimalistic design. Keeping focus on big, dynamic image galleries to inspire her customers. Keeping banner images soft in their expression, with close-ups of ines’s breathtaking embroidering- and bead skills. Social feed and a spacious footer with integrated newsletter signup.

Here is how the old website and logo looked like:

I believe in transparency and an excellent customer service. Nothing less.

Ines’s former website lacked flexibility, and she was trapped for several years, in a contract with a company who she had to turn to for each update and furthermore, had to wait months for the updates to happen. Time consuming and shifting focus away from her business.

I was glad to help her make the move and welcoming a new Squarespace fan ;-)

Kind words from a happy customer:
