Project Overview

Editorial lookbook design for BLCK MRKT's SS26 collection — a 32-page print and digital publication that functions as both a product catalogue and a brand manifesto. Designed to be kept, not discarded.

The Challenge

The brand's previous lookbooks felt generic — standard fashion grid layouts with no editorial voice. The new lookbook needed to feel like a magazine, not a catalogue.

The Result

The lookbook drove a 60% increase in average order value during the launch period. Customers were photographing and sharing the physical booklet on social media, generating organic UGC.

Editorial Direction

Layout & Composition

Typography & Finishing

Custom type setting throughout — manual tracking, optical alignment, and deliberate rule-breaking in the display type to reinforce the brand's anti-establishment positioning.
