Next Gen Fashion UX for a Global Cult Brand

Prelude

This case study highlights the transformation of My Mum Made It, a cult-favorite streetwear label known for its edgy designs and Gen Z appeal, into a high-performance Shopify Plus storefront. The goal was to translate the brand’s visual boldness and attitude into a fully immersive digital experience that reflects its creative DNA.

This project required close collaboration between design, development, and UX teams to reimagine the brand’s storefront on Shopify Plus. From cinematic visuals to stripped-back UI design, the focus was on delivering an experience that felt editorial yet shoppable. The result is a seamless e-commerce platform that balances aesthetic expression with high-converting functionality.

Project Overview
