A campagn to drive awareness and take-up of circular fashion across thousands of stores globally.

The Brief

Teemill, the world's biggest circular e-commerce fashion platform, wanted to evolve its Remill system beyond its own products and invite the wider public to return any 100% cotton clothing—regardless of brand—for recycling and remanufacture.

The Idea

We developed Thread Not Dead — a rallying cry for a new kind of fashion system. More than a slogan, it framed circularity not as an end-of-life solution but as a living, breathing loop.

Concept

We developed Thread Not Dead—a creative platform and rallying cry for a new kind of fashion system. More than a slogan, it framed circularity not as an end-of-life solution but as a living, breathing loop.

Approach

Brought in to develop, project manage and execute the campaign, I worked with the in-house team to:

Develop the campaign concept and narrative, shifting the brand from “take back” to “make back”, highlighting Teemill’s unique ability to remake old garments into new products through their fibre-to-fibre Remill system.

Shaped the creative direction and messaging hierarchy across audiences, based on the Thread not Dead central concept

Developed tone of voice and storytelling principles

Balanced the needs of a host of stakeholders, from small stores to global names

Project-managed the multi-channel rollout across owned and earned channels

Execution

Launched in November 2023, the campaign included:

A global call-to-action for the public to send back cotton clothing (any brand)

A store credit incentive and ambassador scheme

A full storytelling suite, including web copy, social content and explainer comms

A reusable identity for future circularity campaigns

Impact

Campaign backing from the likes of BBC Earth, WWF, and Surfers Against Sewage.

Influencer engagement

Organic traffic spikes throughout the campaign
