Conceptualized by Happy, the campaign explores the close relationship between fashion and social media, urging the youth to trend online as well as offline. #StartTrending borrows key elements from social networks to play with the online lifestyle of today’s digitally savvy youth.
Speaking about the campaign, Rashmi Shukla, marketing and merchandising head, People, Madura Fashion & Lifestyle said, “Our core consumer, the digital natives, are known to live online 24x7. We wanted to capture a slice of their life today. We love the fact that the video captures this in a very young, fun, trendy manner, and reflects all that PEOPLE, the fast-fashion brand stands for.”
The film is entirely shot using the stop-motion technique and showcases the entire collection with the help of different social networks the youth uses.
