The Brief

Chinese Valentineโ€™s day is on August 2018. For the occasion MARNI launched the Caddyโ€™s bag in special edition for Chinese market only.

The Idea

Valentineโ€™s Day in China is a romantic moment, the goal was to build a pop aesthetics, keeping the distinctive Min Liuโ€™s dark humor with a romance touch.
We built a storytelling where the bag is the star, keeping the entertainment up!
