Branding

Bellow USA is a streetwear-based apparel brand based in the OC/LA area. The brand was conceived in 2018 by four high schoolers seeking to express their own creative input into physical products in the shape of t-shirts and inspired graphics. The name derives from the hypothesis: Believe & Follow. 

“If one believes, then one surely must follow.”

In early 2024, the brand has conceptualized a sort of reverse-diffusion line going by the name: 
Research-Driven Atelier. This line focuses on garments that maintain complex design language while covered by a sheer layer of minimalism. 

As of late 2024, this brand is fully owned and operated solely by David Ace Park.
            
Personal Notes:
The brand’s identity throughout the years has been an enigma that warps and shapes from season to season. After viewing the current state of the brand and understanding its shortcomings, I have decided to alter the direction of this brand into a more timeless and minimalist approach. This tested aesthetic can be visualized in future works and concepts. (view design/patternmaking)

 To me, this brand serves as more than just a clothing business. It is a creative endeavor and showcase of different experiments within the field of fashion. Owning this brand has taught me how difficult and rewarding it can be to balance marketing, sales, design, and development.
