The Campaign

For most of us, friend and relative’s appreciation is crucial in making any choice. So what if we could create a fashion show by bringing friends and relatives with us, when we are shopping?

Creative Execution

Try something, share your selfie … and in the following 15 minutes each like you received on Instagram equals 1% discount up to 40%. Everybody wins… Spending less for shoppers, more traffic and awareness for Trends Brands and thousands of small fashion designers get their fashion show in Instagram with a media budget… close to 0.

In less than one month we reached +1.5M people online, get more than 50% incremental traffic in-store and generated +20% additional sales over two months. And moreover we developed a model that seems to open doors for thousands of young brands and designers to compete with fashion brands giants. The model that seems to change the fashion industry radically.

In Russia, mobile users spent 70% of their mobile internet in social networks. And Instagram is becoming their most preferred platform – with nearly 20 million users. And half of the pictures they share are… Selfies. How an apparel retailer who works with small fashion designers could grow its sales based on this medium?

Insights, Strategy and the Idea

Objective was to make the remaining 5% purchasers to bring back the 95% who stayed home, and incentivize shoppers with discounts to help Trend Brands stores to drive awareness of the new collections and fashion designers.
