Our Client:
Earthero Studio is a sustainable and ethical clothing brand established by one of our previous clients, Earthero, to tackle the serious issue of huge wastage of offcuts and surplus fabric within the fashion industry. Wear Earthero produces in small batches to not only ensure the quality comply with its standard of excellence, but also maintain minimal carbon footprint and uniqueness of each piece.
The Challenge:
The client has created a website for selling its clothing products. However, they wished to finetune the user interface of their website to enhance the user experience.
