Context

Launch Clube de Regatas do Flamengo’s 130th-anniversary jersey, sold as a limited edition to club members, out of a little-known chapter of the club’s founding: the wreck of the whaleboat Pherusa, in 1895.

Idea

Turn the shipwreck into the founding myth of a piece of clothing. The concept ties Flamengo’s rowing origins to the jersey.

Concept
Pherusa. Wear our history.

Execution

First, the full strategic brief: goal, KPIs, priority audience, communication attributes and calendar. Then a launch film in a painterly, watercolor style that recreates the founding storm, with a shot-by-shot script. A fashion photo shoot with the jersey. And the key visual, rolled out as a 360° launch: Instagram (feed, carousel and reels), TikTok, email marketing, site pop-ups, the Maracanã big screen and fascia boards, the Gávea screen and full signage for the official store.
