F1 X LULULEMON BRAND COLLAB
Uncovering an Untouched Market”  


A collaboration with the athleisure wear company Lululemon. Introducing a product line of Formula One inspired athletic merchandise.

  • Majority of female fans do not feel represented in Formula 1

  • F1’s sport culture creates a space for online hate speech with fans, players and officials subject to racist, sexist and homophobic abuse via social media platforms.

  • Research has shown that “the majority of female fans would be willing to spend over 400 euros on Formula 1 should they improve their female fan engagement”(Molenaar, 2023).

Our Goal
Engage more women and create a safe space for underrepresented groups
