**My role - Product designer
A**ssigned as the primary product designer, worked closely with Sod’s creative director on the complete UI design rollout of the Viktoria & Woods website.
This involved working closely with the V&W team to ensure the design system was tight yet flexible enough for their marketing team to build on in the future, allowing them to develop campaign and product pages easily. The design system continues to be in use and evolve on the live site today.

Background
Viktoria & Woods is a premium Australian fashion label, celebrated for its timeless, minimalist designs and sustainable approach to luxury apparel. Their online store serves as both a digital flagship and a critical sales channel, needing to balance editorial storytelling with seamless eCommerce functionality.
The challenge
The brand wanted its website to reflect the elegant simplicity of its collections - clean, minimalist, and sophisticated - while ensuring the site remained highly functional and conversion-driven. The challenge lay in merging high-end visual design with the practical needs of online retail, from product discovery to checkout.
The solution
We delivered a digital experience that embodied modern simplicity and functionality. By focusing on clean layouts, refined typography, and a restrained colour palette, we created an elegant stage for the garments to shine. At the same time, we introduced thoughtful UX features such as clear product categorisation, intuitive navigation, and mobile-first optimisation. The result was a site that feels minimalist yet powerful, echoing the Viktoria & Woods brand ethos while making it effortless for customers to browse and purchase.
