ALL SAINTS

STUDIO PRESENTATION

DNA SENTENCE

"ALLSAINTS IS A BRAND THAT BLENDS TIMELESS

DESIGN WITH ROCK INSPIRED ELEMENTS TO CREATE A FEELING OF NONCHALANT REBELLION.

SACONCEPT- NOTHING MATTERS

nothingThe concept is based on the iconic song that brought the last dinner party into the mainstream music scene. Playing on the antithesis of the current clean girl/wellness obsession seen all over social media, we want the campaign to glamorise the type B messy girl aesthetic, pushing against the current generation's wellness obsession and staying true to Allsaints' commitment to alternative and against-thegrain catering to the niche.

THE LAST DINNER PARTY

THE LAST DINNER PARTY

he Last Dinner Party is a breakout London-based indie rock band known for their theatrical, baroque-pop sound and lyrics exploring lust, feminism, and queer themes, blending the sacred and profane with biblical imagery, as seen on their successful debut album Prelude to Ecstasy. They formed in 2020, gaining rapid buzz with singles like "Nothing Matters," and are celebrated for their powerful female and queer representation, elaborate stage presence, and musical depth.

The Last Dinner Party have ~472 million total Spotify streams across all tracks.

Their breakout hit “Nothing Matters” alone has ~208 million streams and continues to pull ~500k+ daily listens. On Spotify monthly listeners are estimated around ~2.9 million people worldwide

Geography: Urban centers in UK and Europe, with growing traction in Australia and North America due to touring and festival appearances.

STYLE ICONS

Justifications

The Last Dinner Party are a strong fit for the AllSaints brand because they embody the same tension between romance and rebellion that defines AllSaints’ identity. Their music and visual world celebrate emotional intensity, theatricality, and imperfection—values that directly oppose polished, wellness-driven aesthetics and instead champion authenticity and self-expression.

With a rapidly growing, fashion-engaged Gen Z and millennial audience, the band sits at the intersection of culture, style, and attitude, mirroring AllSaints’ heritage of dressing individuals who reject conformity and wear their emotions as confidently as their clothes.

The Band Tee

An ALLSAINTS Exclusive

Bon Appetit

Justifications

This band tee is a strong and commercially viable design because it visually translates The Last Dinner Party’s core aesthetic into a wearable, everyday product that aligns seamlessly with AllSaints’ brand DNA. The black base, restrained red typography, and vintage cutlery motif reference dark romanticism, decadence, and the “dinner party” narrative without feeling costume-like, keeping it premium and wearable. The minimal but symbolic graphic approach ensures the tee works both as fan merchandise and as a fashion staple, appealing not only to existing fans of The Last Dinner Party but also to AllSaints customers who buy graphic tees for styling rather than fandom. This crossover between cultural meaning and understated design makes the product scalable, high-volume, and suitable for repeat wear—key factors in bandtee commercial success.

Seed the band tee without announcing it as a collaboration.

VM MOODBOARD

SESSIONS AT ALL SAINTS REGENT STREET

Key factors:

Intimate Gig Settings :Shows take place in spaces that feel close to the crowd, often with dim lighting, exposed brick, and moody surroundings similar to underground gigs rather than big stadium shows

Artist Performances :They host several live sets by different artists in one night, ranging from indie rock and goth-rock to upand-coming indie singers.

Music Meets Fashion: Performing artists are often styled in AllSaints clothing, and the events include opportunities to shop the artists’ edits – pieces the musicians wear during the Sessions

Varied Locations:Sessions happen in stores, pop-ups, and “underground” or industrial-feeling venues — not just conventional concert halls which aligns with AllSaints’ aesthetic of raw, unconventional spaces

LEAP — high-energy indie-rock band known for communal live shows and strong performance energy.

Etta Marcus — solo singer-songwriter with dreamy, emotive vocals, perfect for an intimate gig vibe.

Lucia & The Best Boys goth-rock meets synth-pop band with gritty, underground energy.

REGENT STREET FLOOR PLAN

This is our 2D floor plan of the Regent Street All Saints store, which includes the location of the stage and our mock up of our VM window display.

The window has been located at the from of the store in main view of the street to get maximum attention. As you walk into the store, there is a VM display of the Latest collection on mannequins styled with inspiration from The Last Dinner Party.

Over the speakers you will her some of the latest and greatest songs released by The Last Dinner Party and various other atists that have performed in the store, or which to some day attend.

GUERRILLA MARKETING STRATEGY

The stickers are an effective guerrilla marketing tool because they translate the emotional core of the Nothing Matters collaboration into everyday urban space, meeting the audience where they already move, wait, and linger. Their distressed, analogue look and short, confrontational phrases deliberately oppose the polished language of wellness culture, making them feel personal rather than promotional. By initially minimising overt branding, the stickers create intrigue and encourage organic discovery, while their lyric-driven and emotionally resonant messages reflect both AllSaints’ rebellious heritage and the raw, confessional tone of The Last Dinner Party. This subtle disruption builds cultural credibility, social sharing, and word-of-mouth impact before driving consumers back to the in-store experience.

GUERRILLA MARKETING AT ALL SAINTS

This is one of our Guerrilla marketing strategies. It is a giant black victorian style table that acts as a canopy above the front door of the All Saints store. On top it has a black drum set with the Last Dinner Parties logo on it, alog with a gold mic stand and some melted burnt out candles. This is to symbolise the last dinner party and their gig happening soon at the store and to match the window. The black colouring helps to stay on brand with All Saints brand image.

ANTI-WELLNESS SOCIAL DISRUPTION

What Hijack the language of “clean girl / wellness” culture and flip it. Post formats: Soft pastel backgrounds with aggressive copy:

This is not healing.

You don’t need closure. Rest is overrated. Then cut abruptly to:

Dark window imagery

Band tee close-ups

Where TikTok Instagram Stories

Anonymous or burner-style accounts first, then brand repost background song is nothing matters

On the window, there would be a sticker saying ‘nothing matters’ and All Saints x The Last Dinner Party.
