Product descriptions for Dorset-based fashion brand, Brakeburn.

Brakeburn approached me asking for help producing product descriptions for their spring/summer 2021 collections. After sending me five large cardboard boxes containing all the samples they needed copy for, I got to work touching and studying each garment, making sure the descriptions described how the clothes and accessories felt while pulling out any hidden details that weren’t shown in the product images. 

Brakeburn wanted the copy to be conversational and relaxed – focussing on the features and benefits of the clothes as well as where you’d be most likely to wear them. The brief was to ‘write copy based on how someone would describe their clothes to a friend’. Take a look at some examples I’ve pulled out from the collection.

Luckily, the collection was a success, so Brakeburn asked me back to write copy for the autumn and winter 2021 collections.
