OUT OF LUCK MARKETING AND STORE LAYOUT

As this is only a one off collaboration their wont be a store most of it will be sold online such as the key collection but there will also be secret pop-up shops set up in some of Europe’s biggest city’s. These shops will be open for about a month at a time and include not only the main collection but also one off pieces that customers wont be able to get anywhere else. The pop up shops will run with the pink theme and be set out in a grid like simplistic way, with the clothes hung on metal hangers, on stand alone rails dotted around the shop. However, the walls will have pink and black graffiti all over them giving the simple layout a chaotic feel. The graffiti will be done by different artists in each city giving them a chance to show case their work as well. I have chosen graffiti because it is still another taboo in todays society when really it is an art form and takes just as much skill to creating as a normal painting. The website will run with the pink theme also but be kept simple so it is easy to browse through and show off the pieces. Not only will the products be available on the site there will also be a look book available like on the Hugo Boss website.

The brand will be promoted using shock tactics but also with an exclusivity about it to reach out to only the right people rather than trying to promote to every person possible. As it is for a younger audience a lot of the promotion will be done online through having its own, blog, Instagram page and Facebook. These will be used to tell customers about what is inspiring the designers behind the collection and also to make it more personal and informal as a way to communicate with customers as well.


Another way it shall be promoted is through posters which will be put up in the city’s where the next pop up shop will be, but the posters wont tell you straight where the shop is they will give you a clue or phrase which you have to figure out to know the location. The posters will be pink and white with the brand name and the date the pop up shop is opening in large print and then underneath in a much smaller print will be the clue or phrase. The last way the brand will be promoted is though a sort of underground rave event named ‘Out of Luck’ getting the name out there and it will basically just be a huge party that is heavily branded, so that people will associate the range with the good times. This event would be promoted through flyers and the social media sites.
