In the past, fashion shows were private and highly exclusive events. Labels relied upon elite influencers to disseminate new styles through a sort of chain reaction. In recent years, the process of revealing a new line has changed dramatically. Thanks to a rise in fashion blogging and social sharing, luxury brands now have a direct line to the whole audience they care about reaching on the same day new styles are revealed.

Today, high fashion styles spread at high speed. Of course, social media plays a primary role in that spread. 

In the next few weeks, Fashion Week events will dot the globe. These shows are highly anticipated and will be followed by fashion enthusiasts around the world. So, how should luxury fashion brands go above and beyond traditional social media efforts to capitalize on the Fashion Week momentum?

Create Eye-Catching Content that Fashion-Focused Users will Re-Visit on Pinterest

While other channels are great for driving in-the-moment relevance, a fashion campaign’s shelf-life on these platforms is somewhat limited. Three or four days after a fashion show, brand advocates on these channels have moved on to other content appearing in their feeds. The situation is different on Pinterest, which already hosts roughly 84M Pins around “Fashion Week” according to internal data.

Pins are more evergreen than content on other platforms and provide a simple way for brands to showcase longer-lasting versions of their full shows and products. Pinterest touches more than 100 million monthly global users including fashionistas in more of a research-based, wardrobe-planning mindset, too.
