Objective: To design a website for Wildcard the Label that captures the brand’s identity as the perfect balance between lingerie and underwear. The website should exude a cool, edgy vibe with a touch of vintage aesthetic, appealing to the "cool girl" audience while highlighting the functional benefits of the products, such as sustainability, comfort, support, and adjustability.

Background: Wildcard the Label redefines intimate wear, offering bras and underwear that combine the style of lingerie with the everyday functionality of underwear.
