myntra big fashion festival

Context

Myntra's Big Fashion Festival is the platform's largest festive sale, running across fashion, beauty, and lifestyle at peak shopping volume. It had to carry brand storytelling and move at retail speed at once: value offers, Myntra Insider early access, launch windows measured in days. As Group Head Design, I led the identity and its rollout across app, landing page, social, and OOH.

My direct design work focused on the Myntra Insider landing page and the in-app campaign assets. I worked closely with UX and business stakeholders to understand how the design assets were performing, then refined, updated, or adapted them based on business requirements.

Alongside this, I managed the workflow and delivery of in-app assets to keep the campaign moving smoothly across changing needs. I also handled the social charter and OOH design direction, regularly brainstorming with team members to shape ideas that could extend the campaign beyond the app.

Insight

Festive sale campaigns default to the same shorthand. Fireworks, confetti, red-and-gold gradients, discount type stacked over stock photography. It reads as noise, not premium, and it makes every platform's sale look identical. Shoppers respond to cultural specificity and craft more than they respond to sale noise. A campaign that looked handmade and rooted would read as more valuable than one that just shouted percentages.

Concept

The identity behaves like Pichwai temple art translated into a retail sale language: ornate, layered, narrative. Peacocks, lotuses, and temple motifs became a graphic system built for scale, not a one-off hero illustration. Rich, not loud.

System

The Pichwai motifs were built as a modular kit: border patterns, character silhouettes, foliage. Each piece could be recombined and resized without redrawing. The same kit held at app-icon scale and at OOH hoarding scale, because motif density scaled independently of the layout grid.

Application

That kit had to survive the Myntra Insider landing page and in-app campaign assets first. Highest traffic, most scrutiny. Then it had to extend cleanly into social and OOH without losing the thread.

Outcome

The result was a sale identity that read as heritage-grand instead of discount-loud, and stayed flexible enough to run across app, landing page, social, and OOH without breaking. It's the version of a festive sale campaign that doesn't default to fireworks and gradients.
