MONCLER.COM IS NOW LIVE
Over the past months Wednesday have been working with Moncler on a range of projects launching throughout 2011; the first of these is the new e-commerce website for Moncler.com which went live this week. The site’s unique homepage design reveals new content through an innovative scrolling functionality while showcasing the diversity of the brand by creating a flexible, transparent system which allows the different collections to speak for themselves, helping to tell the story behind each one.
Wednesday’s approach was to create a site intended to elevate Moncler’s rich aesthetic and articulate its creativity. This continues right through to the art direction of the products on a black background, giving Moncler a clear and ownable product-visual aesthetic.
Since the rebirth brought about by chairman and creative director Remo Ruffini in 2003, the brand has gone from strength to strength beyond its origins in the Alps and is now recognised as one of the most creatively innovative and sought after labels in the industry. The new website is the start of a range of digital initiatives Wednesday is working on with Moncler.

Balenciaga has been an internationally acclaimed fashion house since 1937.
