The exclamation point lends itself graphically to many variations, creating a rich system. The dot of the exclamation point becomes a lively device through motion. The core brand is further expressed through Kate Spade's signature colors, leading with kelly green and pink.

For the holiday season, metallics add a festive touch to the exclamation point graphic language. The exclamation point dot becomes an gift bow.
