Objective

The goal of the redesign was to enhance The Daily Dress’s online presence by creating a seamless, user-centered e-commerce experience that aligned with the brand’s focus on effortless style and practicality. By simplifying navigation and showcasing key product features like built-in bras and pockets, the project aimed to improve the shopping journey, boost engagement, and increase conversion rates.
