We create opportunities for aspiring fashion industry stars including designers, models, photographers, artists, and more. The infographic below illustrates this visionary process.
The Beginning
GSyndicates began as a “Made in the USA” project of fashion and couture artist, Shenica Renee Graham. She founded GSyndicates and Haute Midwest Magazine with Sponsor, House of Sherell, following her apparel and accessory designer début (collection titled GSIA – now part of GSyndicates) at the House of Sherell Fashion Extravaganza on November 6, 2013.

About This Project – GSyndicates Design
Design Specs
These are the project design requirements: Create a new logo banner for GSyndicates™ Design (shown above) that matches the GSyndicates brand. Display the words “GSYNDICATES DESIGN™” as a main heading. Display the designer’s name above the main heading. Display the words “We Have The Look You’ve Been Looking For” as a subheading.
Update the previous website cover / banner (Circa 2013, shown above), by Shenica R. Graham (with silhouettes by sattva). Photo(s) preferred over non-human graphic illustrations. Update the current website at http://gsyndicates.wordpress.com. Include a minimum of the following pages: Home, About (subpage: Brands), Blog, GStyle Concierge, Shop, Contact. Add other sub-pages as appropriate. Update the brand’s social media presence. Create an e-commerce website combining all GSyndicates shopping portals. Update the product descriptions with more fashion flair copy. Refer to project sources provided by the client for current descriptions of all categories and pages to be updated. Create a subscription based, branded fashion magazine to promote and support the brand.
The new look should reflect the forward motion of the new brand strategy, the designer has a vision to update the brand from mid-level to a triple threat – ready to wear, mid-level, and high fashion – taking the brand from six to more than a dozen categories including clothing and accessories (adding watches, neckties, and shoes!), skin care and cosmetics (including a specialty line for African American skin like mine!), and home making products like blankets, bath accessories, and even furniture!
Project Fulfillment: The How
The website cover / banners shown above were designed using pexels images by Dellon Thomas as backgrounds with the new logos as transparent overlays. The color scheme and background match the black and white or grayscale trademark of the original GSyndicates logo.
Logos, taglines, and descriptions were updated for each the GSyndicates Brands. The GSyndicates Stamp” or initials monogram is shared by every logo, whether or not the main brand title is spelled out or the brand name starts only with the monogram.

GSyndicates Shop
The Woo Commerce platform was used to create the all-new main shopping portal at https://atomic-temporary-58953174.wpcomstaging.com/shop, which also links to other existing shopping sites managed by the brand. Woo Commerce won over other options because as a Web and CSS designer with over 9 years experience working in online sales, I have not found a better, more user-friendly, consistent, reliable, robust and completely customizable content management system than WordPress. Woo Commerce integrates seamlessly with WordPress.
This project implements a customized version of the Shopify template (theme). Both the main brand website and the shopping portal include extensive graphic design and online copywriting.
GSyndicates Magazine
The next edition of GSyndicates Magazine™ is available online and in print at https://atomic-temporary-58953174.wpcomstaging.com/magazine/. Here’s a preview (at left). Subscribe to the free online edition. Subscribe to the print edition.
For the magazine heading (shown above), I implemented my trademark 180 degree word spin, taking the minimized word, “Magazine” from horizontal to vertical.
