Effortless style: Actress Han So Hee In Charles & Keith’s latest editorial
MANILA, Philippines — Charles & Keith kickstarted the new year with a revitalized graphic identity, unveiling a new reiteration of its logo along with a brand-new emblem and monogram that will be featured in Charles & Keith collections from spring 2024, and most prominently in a new product line, L’initial.
“We are excited to start a new chapter and present the redesigned logo in tandem with our first-ever emblem and monogram,” said brand co-founders Charles and Keith Wong. “Each element was thoughtfully designed, an ode to our beginnings with the inclusion of our initials, the ampersand reflecting the brand’s natural duality.”
Charles & Keith unveils a new reiteration of its logo along with a brand-new emblem and monogram that will be featured in Charles & Keith collections and most prominently in a new product line, L’initial.
Beyond the evolution across retail, communications and packaging touchpoints, this new visual branding will also be highlighted in L’initial. This premium product range flaunts quiet, refined flair with emblems adorning the clasps on boxy shoulder bags and delicate chain wallets; or studded on more casual drawstring pochettes in evergreen neutrals including chalk, nude, black and trending denim blue.
Charles & Keith’s L’initial collection includes seasonal hues in a range of comfortable sandals, chunky loafers, slip-on kitten heels and ankle-strap Mary Janes.
Monogram prints envelop mesh slingback pumps as well as the satin ribbons of tie-around ballet flats in corresponding shades, while the bag line comes embroidered on hardy canvas in contrast monochromatic tones, adding polished poise to any outfit.
The L’initial collection will also include seasonal hues of mint green and creamy yellow in a range of comfortable sandals, chunky loafers, slip-on kitten heels and ankle-strap Mary Janes. Silver remains on point and will continue to make its presence felt on stiletto heels, T-bar sandals and shoulder bags.
Quiet, refined flair: Emblems adorn the clasps on boxy shoulder bags, available at Charles & Keith.
In the brand’s latest editorial, actress Han So Hee shows off effortless style wearing the Leather Boxy Bag and Leather Monogram Tie-Around Ballet Flats in noir for tone-on-tone flourish; while campaign models reimagine varied everyday looks from corporate core — with tailored suiting and sleek shift dresses paired with the versatile Leather and Canvas Two Toned Shoulder Bag or Claire Leather Mary Jane Pumps — to casual chic, where jeans, bombers and blazers are given a cool edge when styled with Tahlia Leather Loafer Mules or Leather Metallic Cut-Out T-Bar Sandals.
The L’initial collection is available at Charles & Keith boutiques and Charleskeith.com now.
