I didn’t realize this brand was still around… but they have caught my attention with their latest ad campaign, “This is man“. It has the feel and spirit of Diesel’s early naughties campaigns. I’m not about to rush into a French Connection store anytime soon, but I appreciate the label taking another stab at gaining the customer’s attention - and the styling is not half bad in the collateral.
Love this ad from the (other) WWF and its agency in Brazil. Very impactful to see a tree and everything related to its existence. If only humans understood things in terms of interconnectivity. Nice to see an agency doing something other that selling shit essential lifechangers like new Microsoft Doodads®…
