Pros
Can I get a re-ee-design?
The guys at CC have a new and rather fresh site, that all looks pleasant on the eye. LOOK HERE
Essentially it’s a swap shop for unwanted/unworn/unloved :( clothes that get a second shot at life and a chance to escape the loft before facing eternity as a greasy rag in your Dad’s shed. When you land on the page you are greeted by some friendly graphics that introduce you to how the site works in 4 easy steps. Covert Candy has already grown tremendously in the 10 or so months it has been open, and now even has it’s own Vintage Store filled with retro goodies. In fact they now have a video to explain how it all works on Vimeo listen and learn!
The vintage store has had a big overhaul on a visual and interactive level, making it much sexier to look at whilst showing off the clothes to their full potential. Nice use of condensed type and skinny lines, and some tip top photography give the site an extra level of class.
We think CC is growing up quickly and has lost some of the puppy fat it had when it was a young’un.
Keep it up!
