Contest Brief

We are after a stylish logo for a tailor made men's suit company called Thread Affair (based on the style icon Fred Astaire).

We want the logo to be used for our website; business cards; as well as the tag located on the inside of the suit jackets. We have uploaded some photos of Fred himself as well as a Johnny Walker logo that we like.

We are envisioning a blackened out silhouette from one of the Fred images. Our 2 favourites are fred hat and fred hat 2. You could even look at adding some contrast to the picture and keeping the tie/pocket square or even the flower white. (not essential).

We then envisaged some sort of running writing - similar to the Jonnie Walker logo in JW pic attached - going through the image.

ideally this would go together and look like it has been sown (thread) and could even end in a neddle or ball of cotton...

we wouldn't mind a couple of logos in the repertoire - eg white on black and black on white. also one with a circle around it to be used as a 'badge.'

also very open for you to use your own creativity but hopefully the brief is quite clear.

we want the company to be stylish, young and sophisticated.

please view the versatile gent and boss hunting websites for some inspiration

good luck!

    Hi guapoebuenaobra I like #34 and #27 most at the moment. Can you do them so it is black not grey. Anyone else want to make any slight alterations they think might add to the design.

    #2 , 3 and 20.
    I like the simplicity of your design - it adds a touch of class and sophistication.
    Will there be any trade mark issues using the picture of Fred Astaire as is?
    Also could you work this into a landcapre version - as we would need this to be used on the inside tag of a suit that is generally a rectangle.

    #17 - agree you are on the right track. maybe don't limit yourself to using the circle and see what you can come up with

      hi What did you say in the design #16

    Hi 17,

    I love your idea but it is still not right.Can you maybe make the circle thinner and then add a pocket square to the silhouette (having a white outline).

    15 is the only one who really followed the brief but is still not what we want. 2 has a nice look to it as well but I think we prefer the pic used in 15. We want to use the pics we suggested but do not want it to be recognisably Fred Astaire.

    15 is good but still no right. 10 is on the right track and 6 has the right idea re the blacked out silhouette.

    Good luck!
