Clothing
brands are the limelight of today’s society with fashion being the main
priority. People around the world like to identify themselves in many ways and
like to use fashion to do this. It is important that clothing brands advertise
what they have on offer. This is because it allows potential customers to see
what offers the brand are making, and is a good way of exposing the brand
further. There are many ways that messages and offers can get across to an audience.
The ones I am doing and going to focus
on, are print and audio based advertisements, which we have seen a variety of other
clothing brands choosing to expose their brands in these methods.
For
print based adverts, we will see adverts being printed on billboards, buses,
shop windows etc. . This is due to the
fact these places that you will see these ads are places, the environment is
usually flooded with crowds of people going about their normal, everyday
business lives or shopping around. For example, you have brands such as Alessandro
Zavetti , Moda Bandidos and Lost Soles. These are brands that are inspiring
this brands. With the likes of Alessandro Zavetti, as they are an established brand
that have been round in shops for a while, they have their own shops and
website. Due to this, there will be print based adverts in windows and
billboards.
Alessandro Zavetti Shop Print Ad |
Here
we have a window advertisement for Alessandro Zavetti. It shows the simple layout
of what a print based advert would need. This is promoting a Pop-up store being
up for the brand. This is stated clearly on the image. It is contemporary as it
shows modern styles, typefaces and includes the socials, as well as it being
presented in a way that most of the fashion industry would showcase shop window
adverts. The most important aspect is that the name and logo of the brand is
based on the image. It is clear and you know what brand it is by just looking
at the advertisement.
STONE Mens Fashion Print Ad |
This
advert is again another print based which you will most likely see on a high
street advertisement board or the shop window, as well as a potential
appearance in a magazine. This advert clearly states what it is offering and
exposing. As it states, it is promoting the new collection by STONE, which is a
newer fashion wear. We know this as it states through the representation of the
ad, with the fonts differentiating and the use of the colour fitting in well
with the clothes the model is wearing. This advert is also showcasing an offer which
is available for buyers. The way this is presented is vital as it has been
broken up from the original concept of the poster, and makes it the first thing
you see on the page, due to the different colour from the background and it
being placed in the middle of the page, near the model, promoting what is on
offer. This will make it hard to miss for anyone, especially those who take
time to closely inspect the poster. It again fits in with the modern society of
today as it includes social media links and even a barcode. The barcode can be
useful for being in a magazine, which allows the readers to scan the code and
potentially learn a little
AUDIO ADVERT
As I am doing print advertisement, I thought it would be good to also contribute to some audio advertising. This is because it is rare to hear any clothing brands take to the radios and promote their product. It may be rare, however there were some adverts that did appear on the radio promoting their
