Overview

Effectiveness

The collection sold out in just a few days.The action became a trending topic creating news on TV, press and social media.

The TV interviews had a 3.8% to a 4.0% of rating during the week of the event.We demonstrated that the affordable clothes from La Sirena can be fashionable.

More than 100 outfits were picked for each show during the week.By the end of 2011 La Sirena's fashion dept. increased a 53% in buying preference compare to other top retail stores in the country.

Execution

We negotiated with the TV shows that covered Fashion Week. A day before each show, we sat down with the scriptwriters, interviewer and guest (Designers) matching the script with clothing from our store. Showing that what they were saying fashion is going to be, is what they were already wearing from our stores. Every answer, every camera cut during the interview (every 30-45 seconds) showed a new outfit that match the subject being discussed.

For example: if the conversation was about the colours of the season, every camera cut showed different colour combinations. The same happened if the topic was about animal prints, patterns or layers.On screen interactive overlays described every piece telling price, available colour where to wear it and how to mix it with. 100 looks were picked for each show. YouTube, Facebook and Twitter helped to spread the action.

Strategy

La Sirena department stores wanted to re-launch their fashion department with their new fall collection. Being a store with no high-end brands people did not consider us a fashion option. We wanted to change this perception by showing you could get fashionable clothes at low prices.Our audience were young women that are fashion conscious, who look for the latest trends but don’t have money to always spend on high fashion brands.Our idea was to surprise and engage the audience. Not with an ad for our clothes, but by making it part of the content of the most important fashion event and using the designers they look-up for the latest trends. We showed a captive audience in every TV interviewed with the designers more than 100 outfits that would match the designers opinions on trends of the season. Demonstrating we had fashionable clothes at an affordable prices.
