Earlier this year we got our teeth stuck into another casting for Hush Puppies.

It's the attention to detail which makes these campaigns so successful and something to be proud of. Photography by Dean Chalkley

We are so proud to have been part of this team to create such a fantastic story for Cath Kidston. Take an empty studio lot in West London, a football pitch-sized piece of turf and a giant globe of artificial sunshine (the only one of its kind in London). Mix in novelty knits, groomed dogs, mischievous kids and a pop-up tent or two. Decorate liberally with elaborate cakes, bunches of flowers and a generous sprinkling of good, honest Cath Kidston fun.

HemingwayDesign specialise in identifying seminal moments in British design and popular culture, then pulling them into a modern context. This is exactly what they did with Hush Puppies.
Hush Puppies came to prominence at a time of great importance musically, as well as culturally, and are recognised as a staple of the late 50s rock 'n' roll scene, essential footwear for the fashion conscious lad of the 80s, and can rightly claim to be the shoe of choice for the 60s mod – a distinctly British and frequently revisited look. These style personas gave us the DNA to create our own, all-new collection.
Led by Jack Hemingway, the HemingwayDesign collection features eight pieces that take inspiration from a Teddy Boy classic: the Brothel Creeper, the Mod’s Chelsea and Desert boots and the Casual's ultra-cool suede loafer. The designs combine street style with Hush Puppies everyday comfort and wearability. We also designed all the packaging, POS and led this exciting photo and film shoot in Margate.
This fun campaign was shot by Marco Walker and were used to promote the rebranding of Travelodge and their newly refurbished hotels. The models all had a fabulous time on location in Brighton!
