Van Heusen Man / V Dot

With more than half of India’s population under 25, it was not a surprise when Van Heusen moved from targeting only the 25-45-year-old businessman. With the introduction of V dot that opened up the specialized clubwear category, Van Heusen also addressed the needs of a younger consumer and a changing lifestyle – one who had disposable income and the attitude to go with it. V dot offered a range of clothing that was edgy, not reckless, fashionable, not flippant, youthful, not juvenile. It added a bold sophistication to the brand’s design philosophy.
