A SHORT INTRODUCTION
Elly Sofocli is an Australian contemporary bridal designer for brides who want another level of experience leading up to their day. When Elly came to Antimony, the brief was bold: reposition the brand to attract global stockists, redesign the digital experience, and build the comms infrastructure to take the label from local to international. Antimony delivered brand workshops, a complete design system, a new website, and trunk show campaigns across NYC, London and Paris.
Barfoot & Thompson is New Zealand's largest privately owned agency, family-run for a hundred years. They brought us in to sell their most remote, premium coastal listings the way the best brands sell anything: online, at scale, to exactly the right people.The job was to turn high-end video and photography into a journey that found serious buyers and warmed them up long before they stood on the land. So we built the system to do it, and built it to repeat.
THE CHALLENGE

Taking an Australian bridal label from local to global

THE CONTEXT

Elly Sofocli had built a reputation among brides who wanted more than a dress. They wanted an experience. But the brand's reach was limited to Australia and the digital presence didn't reflect the calibre of the product. The brief was bold: attract global stockists, redesign everything, and build the infrastructure for international growth.

THE MARKET

The global bridal market rewards brands that combine craftsmanship with commercial savvy. Stockists in NYC, London and Paris look for designers who can deliver both creative distinction and reliable wholesale infrastructure. Elly Sofocli had the product. She needed the platform.

OUR MOVE

Brand repositioning and trunk show campaigns across three continents. We rebuilt the brand and digital experience, then took the label to NYC, London and Paris to put it in front of the world's most influential bridal stockists.

WORDS FROM ANTIMONY
Elly's work demands to be seen on a global stage. Our role was to build the infrastructure that could take her there. The trunk show campaigns across NYC, London and Paris proved the brand could hold its own against the world's best bridal designers.

WHAT WE DELIVERED

Antimony delivered brand and GTM workshops, customer profiling and journey mapping, a complete go-to-market strategy, a new brand design system, website design and development, and trunk show campaigns across three international fashion capitals.

GLOBAL ACTIVATION

The trunk show campaigns in NYC, London and Paris positioned Elly Sofocli in front of the world's most influential bridal stockists. Each market received a tailored activation strategy that respected local buying culture while maintaining global brand consistency.

DIGITAL EXPERIENCE

The new website was designed as more than a lookbook. It functioned as a stockist acquisition tool, a bride-facing brand experience and a trunk show campaign hub, built to convert interest into commercial relationships at every level of the funnel.

MEASURABLE IMPACT

Within 12 months: organic website sessions up 63%, enquiry conversion up 40%, qualified bridal consultations doubled year-on-year, time on site up 3x, 2,500+ database subscribers and 9 new stockist and retail partners.
