Goldenberg was one of 11 ITS finalists chosen to create an inspiring
branding solution for their fashion collection at ITS 2012 by Avery
Dennison Retail Branding and Information Solutions (RBIS), a global
leader in apparel and footwear solutions and an ITS fashion partner.
Goldenberg’s submission was selected as the winner because of its
strong, consistent branding connection with his fashion collection.
“Mark was able to express himself as effectively on his branding
solutions as he did in his collection, while telling a consistent
story,” says Tim Voegele-Downing, global creative director at Avery
Dennison RBIS. “Branding is essential for young fashion designers in
establishing how consumers will interact and perceive their new creative
collections. It is important that they infuse their brands with the same
kind of style and creative flair as their collections. Watching these
talented young designers, like Mark, use our apparel branding solutions
to represent their personal brands and elevate their ITS collection was
truly inspiring and we’re excited to be able to work with them to make
their designs a reality.”
Avery Dennison RBIS created the award to help motivate young designers
to unleash their creativity for branding. As the winner of the
first-ever Brand Innovation Award, Goldenberg received a €3,000 cash
prize and the opportunity to design and develop integrated branding
solutions for the company’s Branding Solutions Portfolio that will be
shown to all Avery Dennison RBIS global clients. Avery Dennison has also
invited Goldenberg to visit its Customer Design and Innovation Centre in
Germany, where he will work directly with the Avery Dennison Global
Creative Services team.
Avery Dennison RBIS develops the latest creative trends and the
innovative branding solutions that enable established brands and
up-and-coming designers – like Mark Goldenberg – to bring their designs
to life with high-impact brand graphics, labels and finishing touches.
By providing guidance, support and the company’s full complement of
branding solutions and tools to the 11 ITS finalists, Avery Dennison was
