RESET the label
Strategic Pivot & Brand LaunchThread Vision guided RESET the label through a strategic pivot—from a saturated loungewear concept to a custom-engineered travel accessories brand—delivering full brand creation, product development, and end-to-end operational support that led to national media coverage and a scalable product foundation.
Meet the brand
RESET the label is a creator-led lifestyle brand founded by Serena Pitt, a well-known Bachelor Nation personality and frequent traveler. With an audience deeply connected to her jet-setting lifestyle, Serena wanted to build a product brand that felt authentic to how she lives and travels—not generic influencer merchandise.
Her initial vision began in loungewear, but market saturation and limited differentiation made it clear a strategic pivot was necessary to unlock long-term growth.
Pivoting From Saturation to Strategy
Serena faced a complex challenge common to high-profile creators entering product:
- An initial loungewear concept positioned in an overcrowded market
- No existing brand system, technical specifications, or production infrastructure
- A need for products that reflected her identity as a frequent traveler
- Zero experience managing sourcing, manufacturing, fulfillment, or customer service
- The requirement that any new product justify a mid-premium price point through real function—not hype
The opportunity wasn’t visibility.
It was choosing the right product category and executing it correctly.
The Thread Vision Solution
Thread Vision became RESET the label’s strategic brand architect and operational engine, leading a full pivot and building the business from the ground up.
Strategic Pivot & Brand Creation
Thread Vision identified a clear whitespace opportunity: elevated travel accessories—products that sit between mass-market travel gear and luxury luggage.
We delivered:
- Full brand identity, including minimalist aesthetic, color story, primary logo, and submark
- Niche positioning aligned with Serena’s real-life travel habits
- A focused launch assortment designed for function, portability, and style
This pivot aligned perfectly with Serena’s audience and lifestyle, immediately strengthening brand credibility.
Custom Product Engineering
Thread Vision engineered a compact but differentiated product line, including:
- Custom Belt Bag
- Passport Wallet
- Wire & tech organizer
Each product was designed to solve a real traveler pain point: choosing between fashion and functionality.
Through extensive sampling and wear testing, we refined critical details such as replacing a noisy metal clip with a quiet belt-style closure on the Belt Bag an example of function-driven design that elevated the final product.
