The Brand Story
Our work with Shwaz was completely unique. Shwaz came to us a start up, bursting with ideas but unsure of how to expand from their roots to reaching the goals that they dreamt of. The brand had an idea that they wanted their debut season to open a new chapter in the world of luxury accessories. They wanted classic Italian workmanship to embrace a constantly evolving and contemporary, yet timeless style.
Both founders, Dashi and Zanza had no fashion experience and so we at James Hillman worked with them to create a strategy that would align with the brand's purpose. They identified wanting to have playful and versatile products that were luxurious, precious, and displayed the endless possibilities of using crocodile leather as a material.
Our knowledge and experience in this field alongside our ability to think of new and exciting ways to approach the market helped solve Shwaz’s problem. We worked tirelessly alongside both founders to turn a dream into reality whilst also forging relationships with suppliers who possessed the right credentials to not only create the product, but also produce a product that was the highest possible standard.
The result was a refined and beautifully crafted collection of bags and accessories made entirely from exotic leathers such as alligator matte and bos taurus leather. Thanks to dedicated and collaborative work, the products completely captured the concept for Shwaz: Obscure reflections and how those reflections emit the highest levels of opulence.
Their end products speak for themselves. Shwaz now have a strong and beautiful collection, whose products were exclusively sold to high net worth individuals. Whilst still only in their debut season thanks to the aid of James Hillman, the brand is well on its way to a successful, redefined future and we couldn’t be more excited.
