Revelry is a chic and accessible bridal wear brand that offers made-to-order garments, and home try-ons for wedding parties to look and feel confident.
I was tasked to redesign and develop Revelrys global navigation bar, one of the most utilized features on an e-commerce website, to improve content-management and allow more marketing freedom.
The new design features reusable mega-menu components (extended into three variations) for a customized dynamic client experience on both mobile and desktop viewpoints.
Other features implemented: global wishlist, rush fee delivery, dynamic YMAL recommendation carousels, and international e-commerce.
