How Topshop used Instagram and Facebook to power the Topshop Fashion Catwalk
Topshop's 2014 social media campaign gives a good example of an integrating social networks. Topshop used Facebook, Twitter and Instagram to bring their live London Fashion event to a social media audience. They enlisted 5 Topshop Instagram Bloggers and strong advocates to share their pictures and videos, inviting fans to post to the hashtag #Topshopwindow.
Brands appearing at the Fashion show shared photos from the catwalk and celebs at the show, under hashtag #TopShopUnique and some Designers even took the opportunity to release their new outfits, before they hit the catwalk.
The live event was streamed to the website so fans could 'click-to-buy' whilst watching the models on the runway in the latest fashions, and even download the latest music playlist. Social comments were shown in Oxford Circus's store, creating what some will call as 'an interactive digital mosaic'.
This looks to be the future of such events, with the experience is shared across channels with brands' advocates.
