Markarian

La créatrice Alexandra O'Neill a lancé sa marque de vêtements féminins de luxe, Markarian, en 2017 afin de créer des vêtements aux coupes nettes, distinctement féminins et passionnants à porter.

Toutes les pièces sont fabriquées à la main dans un atelier situé dans le célèbre West Village de New York par une petite équipe de travailleurs acharnés - et il était important pour eux que leur site de commerce électronique reflète le même niveau d'artisanat et d'attention aux détails que leur couture sur mesure.

Lorsque Markarian a fait irruption sur la scène nationale, ils ont choisi Pact pour les aider à réimaginer leur expérience numérique.

Markarian Goes to Washington... and Beyond

Despite being somewhat new to the scene, Markarian became a household name when the First Lady, Dr. Jill Biden, stepped onto the inaugural stage outfitted in a custom Markarian piece, a velvet-trimmed tweed jacket and ocean blue dress with hand-embroidered crystals. Thanks to this high-profile appearance, the brand saw a significant uptick in consumer interest and site traffic.

Long loved by singer Lizzo and actresses Carey Mulligan, Beanie Feldstein and Kerry Washington, Markarian began its transition from fashion's best-kept secret to the national stage.

This event became a watershed moment for the brand. Immediately, its social media following doubled, and online luxury fashion retailer Moda Operandi reported a 570% spike in traffic to the brand's pieces.

Commerce that Shines

When redesigning the commerce experience, it was important for us to imagine how little touches – such as ornamental typography, bold imagery and declarative statements – could help tell a more robust story about the brand.

Markarian has three distinct areas of focus that set the brand apart: whimsical clothing, made by hand and made to order to be more thoughtful about the environmental effects of production. We wanted to amplify these values.

The Art of Slow Fashion

The beauty of Markarian's approach to fashion is its approach to sustainability. Every piece is intentionally produced to reduce waste, even though this philosophy runs counter to what customers expect in the always-on, Amazon-powered economy of direct-to-consumer instant gratification.

We worked closely with Markarian's team to shift the messaging to communicate the importance of this environmentally considerate approach, reinforcing the brand's personal touch at every turn.
