This interview with Eugene Rabkin by Maria Stanchieri provides some valuable insights. 💡 ♦️ Brands have been focusing their strategies in recent years on the #aspirationalconsumer, the one that yearns for a logo to display as a status symbol. ♦️ To appeal to that consumer, some brands disconnect from their #inspirationalconsumers (core customers, journalists, retailers...) who ought to be the actual guiding lights of the brand. ♦️ Although these strategies work well for a while. It's like a sort of bubble that lifts some brands from the ground without any safetyline, or life net, to save them when the bubble bursts. (via nss) #brandstrategy

Calvin Klein's recent campaign with FKA Twigs, now banned in the UK, has sent ripples through the fashion world. Capturing Twigs in a denim shirt that daringly challenges convention, the ad - with its provocative "Calvins or nothing" slogan - has been thrust into the spotlight by the UK's Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) for what they perceive as objectification. This bold move has ignited a fervent discussion about the boundaries of creative expression in fashion advertising. The ad, a captivating composition of minimalism and raw sensuality, has transcended its commercial purpose, becoming a symbol of a broader debate. It raises compelling questions about the intersection of art, fashion, and societal standards – a conversation that is as old as the industry itself. In an assertive response, Twigs rejects the idea of being depicted as an object. Her perspective, shared passionately on social media, reframes the narrative as an ode to empowerment and the resilience of a woman of colour. Calvin Klein, aligning with Twigs, highlights the campaign’s objective to celebrate confidence and artistic expression, challenging the notion of objectification. The scrutiny faced by this campaign, contrasted with the relative leniency towards other similar ads, sparks an essential dialogue about consistency and the evolving standards in fashion advertising. #ck #ckad #fashion
