SUSTAINABLE RAVEWEAR
RAVE WELL
Sigil is a sustainable rave wear brand committed to quality rave gear and the culture and community it serves. In today's social landscape, raving importantly shifts the focus from the intensity of our world to a more present and fluid state of enjoyment, self-reflection, and letting go. While Sigil's mission is to catalyze change in ravers, offering a sustainable alternative to the fast fashion brands in the space, it also appeals to an aesthetic and functionally concerned target market.
MOBILE TESTING
Searching for strategic behavioural opportunities to communicate brand values is always vital to brand building. For Sigil, that opportunity came about as a fully outfitted and branded mobile drug testing unit. Why stop at sustainable rave wear when the brand can refocus profits toward supporting the safety of its community in action? For many, drug use is undeniably an integral aspect of the rave experience. As long as this persists as part of rave culture, Sigil can align with its audience's values and help keep its community safe.
REPAIR PROGRAM
Another consideration for Sigil was its multifaceted repair program. By its nature, Raving strains the materials used to craft even the highest quality gear. To combat this, Sigil supports its customers through a mail-in repair program where old, damaged clothing sections are cut away and replaced with new ones. Repairing gear over time means that each piece gradually becomes more and more unique. As such, the identity for Sigil, while remaining distinctive and recognizable, also needed to be subtle and modular enough in design applications to integrate seamlessly with changing materials, colours, and textures.
Colour choice was another critical consideration that allowed us to communicate the organization's values. Sigil passionately fights for the betterment of the community it serves. The colour palette reflects this commitment by pulling the energy and atmosphere of a long night of raving into key components across the brand—the intensity of the red stands for Sigil's aggressive dedication to ravers worldwide.
