The Top 15 Social Media Fashion Brands
Here at Dachis Group we love fashion and design. So we thought we’d take a look at what our big data social analytics platform revealed about the best fashion brands in social media. We ranked 60 global fashion brands across critical social performance indicators like Audience, Earned Media, Engagement, Participation, and Advocacy. Read on to see what we learned, or jump to the bottom to see the top 15:
Burberry is the best social media fashion brand
Whether sharing exclusive insider info from fashion week or their new fall lineup, Burberry use social media like a true innovator. They were one of the first brands to embrace Instagram for Video, are a consistent leader in content creation, and are exemplary when it comes to making their brand feel omnipresent, but still exclusive and luxurious using social media.
INNOVATORS: Burberry, Victoria’s Secret, Louis Vuitton, H&M, and FOREVER 21
Burberry isn’t the only leading fashion brand. Victoria’s Secret, Louis Vuitton, H&M, and Forever 21 deserve serious commendation for their social marketing. These brands encourage engagement and advocacy with everything they do. Forever 21 in particular has turned Instagram and Facebook into a showcase for everything that makes fast fashion so playful, addictive, and shareable. It all makes perfect sense given the significant presence of the brand’s core audience (digital native teens) on Instagram. What better way to build affinity and remind them to stop in on the weekend to try out the latest product?
LEADERS: Vans, Michael Kors, Gucci, Dolce & Gabbana, and Dior
Falling just outside the top 5, these brands are without a doubt Leaders in the fashion industry. Whether it’s the highly engaging event strategy from Vans or incredible digital storytelling from Dior as evidenced by their more than 16 million views on YouTube (the most of any fashion brand), or Dolce & Gabbana’s embrace of Vine.
ACHIEVERS: Old Navy, Polo Ralph Lauren, Roberto Cavalli, Coach, and Gap
Coach exemplifies the high achieving nature of these five brands. Coach has shown it really understands global luxury marketing through its approach to the China market. The perfect example is their Chinese New Year promotion which entailed a simultaneous launch of eCommerce capabilities in China, the creation of a WeChat presence, regional celebrity endorsement, and a sophisticated e-card campaign that triggered serious social sharing.
