Hooch's quirky, hippy-chick look is charmingly haphazard. The influences are feminine and eclectic: vintage pieces from the '20s through to the '90s. Hooch wearers like to break the rules. At the Hooch store, they can indulge their love of the off-beat.
Ambition
Hooch (which is part of Americana International) saw our work elsewhere - and loved it. They came to us for a fully integrated eCommerce store that would give the brand a permanent home and a focus for its growing number of fans. Offline, Hooch is a concession within boutiques, multiples, and Bench outlets.
Action
Hooch is a scrapbook of ideas, images, and places. The site revels in found things: mementoes of lazy days and snippets from other people's lives. That's the essence of the Hooch look – putting fashion together in fresh and unexpected ways. And if you're still not sure, there are plenty of suggestions for creating Hooch's trademark mix-and-match style.
drivebusiness brings the site to life with a broad range of services from atmospheric photography through to full customer service. At the same time, Hooch have full CMS with blog functionality, news, styles, and most-wanted sections. There's a stockist finder, a press section, and full integration with Navision for live stock feeds and Sage Pay for payments. A look-book and cross-merchandising encourage multibuying.
