Holloway x Graff Case Study

The challenge

Graff needed to heavily promote their more accessible collections in a highly competitive market, to very different audiences across the US, Europe, Middle East and Asia. They had to do it without losing the soul of the brand: the high jewellery prestige and exclusivity that make it desirable. Their visual direction had become diluted, with no single guiding vision to keep these creative worlds aligned.

Our Approach

We started with the voice of the founder.

Our approach

“It all begins with the diamond.”

— Laurence Graff

This guiding principle lay at the very foundation of the brand. We uncovered it, put it at the forefront of every piece of creative, and from it created our proposition:

Graff is the eternal expression of the diamond.

Five territories

The qualities of the diamond

The proposition gave us five key territories, each drawn from a quality of the diamond, to build the layers of the brand’s personality across every pillar.

The diamond represents

Strength
Love
Beauty
Nature
Artistry

The epitome of strength and power

An eternal symbol of love and commitment

Extreme beauty and elegance

Nature’s most precious gift

A testament to human artistry

The Graff Woman

An evolving image of glamour

The identity of Graff has been synonymous with the most fabulous jewels in the world and the powerful women that wear them since the 1960s. We were inspired by a hundred years of portraiture capturing the world’s most enigmatic women, we personified the qualities of the diamond in a single character: the Graff Woman. Commanding, alluring, a timeless symbol of elegance.

All pillars, all stages, all markets.

This faceted foundation let us build campaigns for the full breadth of the brand, worldwide, while keeping a core sensibility that makes every image instantly legible as Graff.
