David Jones - Pride + Diversity 2016

Australia's biggest retail client wanted to participate in the 2016 Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras. Determined to do the community and the brand justice, we tackled the issue of diversity in the workplace and society through a film, social and an activation. 

It earned us a Cannes Lion nomination.

The film

We created our campaign around Australia's first transgender diva and a former employee of David Jones, Carlotta. By sharing her story we meaningfully discussed gay pride.
