A vibrant hotel group across Australia and NZ, we were approached by Rydges to refresh their uniforms as part of their brand evolution.
As the brand looked to the future, it was important that the Rydges uniform complimented their commitment to guest experience, starting with their most valued asset: their people.
Collaborating closely with the Rydges team, our goal was to deliver a new element of authenticity to the guest experience. It was essential that the uniforms were dynamic in their design to reflect Rydges’ warm hospitality, thoughtful details, reliable value and a signature service that goes the extra mile.
The new Rydges uniform carefully considered colour palette, style, comfort and flexibility to ensure the entire team felt proud of their uniform and the brand they represent.
The Rydges brief required a modern and flexible staff uniform across five job functions:
From hello to goodbye, every detail was considered when curating the Rydges Front of House uniform. Centred on a ‘build your own’ look concept, the uniform consists of an expertly curated mix of pieces that combine classic cuts with modern detailing. Staff can mix and match their look and even add a personal touch with a range of accessories that complement the Rydges colour palette.
Range includes Taylor Suiting in Black & Taylor Separates in Black, Smith Oxford Shirt in White, Riviera ¾ Vanilla & Black, Crew Knit Black and Todd Chino Camel.
