The Best Digital Fashion Ad Campaigns of Fall 2021 as chosen by Kenneth Richard
Digital continues to dominate fashion marketing communication, and it’s hard to imagine that it will slow down any time soon. While it does offer a great way to put the same kind of imagery that might have gone in print into a much wider circulation, our favorite digital campaigns are those that make unique use of the platform – those campaigns that can only exist on digital and social media channels.
Taking its cue from the pandemic’s slew of DIY, stay-at-home campaigns, Marni’s #MarniOnMe campaign tasked friends of the brand with modeling and capturing pieces at home themselves, and invited fans to participate by using the hashtag, with Marni’s favorites being shared on its own Instagram.
Burberry worked with visionary digital artist Frederik Heyman, who created a delightfully strange virtual installation piece – starring the legendary – Naomi Campbell that blended organic and machine-like elements.
Bottega Veneta’s quarterly digital zine – the house’s alternative to social media after totally scrubbing its presence – continues to be an exciting focal point of creativity, and could become an important alternative approach that others follow into the future.
Here are The Impression’s picks for the Top 10 Digital Campaigns of Fall 2021 as selected by our Chief Impressionist, Kenneth Richard.
