ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

In with the new, out with the old, indeed! This fall, Diet Coke is giving the soft drink aisle something to talk about by re-introducing its stylish cropped logo design for its aluminum can and launching a new, refreshed ad campaign. Just in time for fashion week, the bold move will help extraordinary individuals stay refreshed on runways - from the airport to the shows - and everywhere in between.

The campaign is the latest evolution of Diet Cokes iconic Stay Extraordinary platform and features a modern, bold look on the Diet Coke can, a series of new print and out-of-home ads, as well as a new, limited-edition T-shirt available in Target stores this fall.

The refreshed packaging design was created by San Francisco-based design agency Turner Duckworth. It features a section of the Diet Coke logo, cropped to feature the "D" and the "k," set against the brand's signature silver backdrop, creating a sleek, modern look for the brand.

The can design first debuted as a seasonal design last fall. It was brought back by popular demand and overwhelmingly positive feedback from consumers and will begin appearing in market September 1. Despite the packaging change, the great taste remains the same for the number one zero-calorie brand in the nation.

"Fashion week is the perfect time of year to bring back the modern look of Diet Coke," said Erik Jenkins, Diet Coke Brand Manager. "Our fans told us they loved the sleek look of the cropped design, so this fall we're bringing back the bold can design for everyone to enjoy."

Another refreshed look for the brand comes in the form of a new, limited-edition Diet Coke T-shirt. Up-and-coming designer Gustavo Alonso, a student at Miami International University of Art and Design, won the recent Diet Coke Young Designer Challenge, edging out the competition with his dramatic and glamorous take on the cropped Diet Coke logo featuring a mysterious woman in a vivid red coat.

Conducted in partnership with the Council of Fashion Designers of America and Target, the winner of the Diet Coke Young Designer Challenge was selected by some of the biggest names in fashion, including luminary designers Zac Posen, Cynthia Rowley and LWren Scott. They were joined by Jeanette Carrell, Associate Creative Director for Target and Vince Voron, Associate Vice President, Strategic Design and Integrated Marketing Content, Coca-Cola North America, for a judging event to select the design best representing the multi-dimensional and aspirational Diet Coke brand.

As the winner of the Diet Coke Young Designer Challenge, Alonso will receive an extraordinary portfolio boost. In addition to winning a $10,000 scholarship and a trip to New York City to meet Posen, Rowley and Scott, Alonsos design will be sold in select Target stores nationwide beginning September 2.

"Gustavo's design captured how Diet Coke can break through and is more than just a great tasting refreshing drink," said Jenkins. "It's an extraordinary fashion statement."
