Client: Charisma Brands
The Ask:
Brand re-fresh for specialty doll line.
Create a packaging system for an all over the place brand. It was a better doll in so many ways than its competitors. The online presence was going in the right direction, the packaging wasn’t.
The Solution:
Consistency and better brand story telling online and at retail. Use of more lifestyle photography, a clean presentation, and product features called out with an icon system on the front of package, increasing the perceived value.
