The Dove 2025 Brand Refresh focused on evolving the brand’s visual identity to feel more contemporary and relevant within a fast-moving social world, while staying true to Dove’s core ethos. The brief was to update the branding, colour palette and typography so they worked seamlessly across social, broadcast, print and POS, creating a more flexible and unified system.
Central to the refresh was the development of clearer talent and product photography guidelines, bringing greater consistency to the work while continuing to celebrate real women in an honest, considered way. The updated photography balances realness and confidence, ensuring the brand feels both human and recognisably Dove.
A full suite of social and motion guidelines was also created, defining layout, typography, transitions and rhythm to ensure the visual world feels cohesive in both static and moving formats. The result is a unified design system that allows Dove to show up consistently and confidently across every platform.
80% of girls are now using retouching apps by the age of 13, according to research.
Dove Reverse Selfie was created to challenge the growing impact of social media distortion on young people’s self-esteem. The brief was to spotlight how filters and editing tools subtly reshape reality, and to do so in a way that felt honest, emotional and unmistakably Dove.
By reversing the familiar process of creating a “perfect” selfie, the campaign exposed the unseen steps behind online images and reinforced Dove’s long-standing commitment to real beauty — encouraging audiences to question what they see on screen and to feel more confident in their own skin.
My Role: Design Director
The idea was to turn a piece of internet culture into a physical design object. A banned sandwich bag from Charli xcx’s poster was recreated as a limited-edition Hellmann’s ‘Club Classic’ sandwich bag, designed to feel almost identical to the original and filled with a freshly made Club Classic sandwich — a playful nod to the track.
Executed as a fast, guerrilla-style drop, the bags were produced in limited numbers and distributed directly to fans outside the venue. Designed to feel like merch rather than advertising, the object became instantly collectible, living naturally within fan culture and social feeds rather than traditional brand spaces.
Toxic beauty advice has become so embedded in social culture that it often goes unquestioned. The creative challenge was to visualise this in a way that felt immediate and unsettling.
My role: Lead Designer
Christmas iconography is built around love and togetherness — yet for many LGBTQ+ couples, public affection can still feel unsafe. The design challenge was to rework a familiar festive symbol into something that stood for visibility and inclusion.
For Stonewall’s first Christmas campaign, the mistletoe was reimagined in a rainbow palette and placed in real locations where homophobic attacks had occurred. The simple act of redesigning and repositioning the object turned it into a statement of pride, reclaiming space through symbolism.
The idea extended across film, social and digital OOH, creating a consistent visual language.
