The cross-generational program is designed to appeal not only to teens, but also to moms, as both groups influence purchasing decisions during this timeframe. Denim, the common thread throughout the ‘Inspired’ campaign, speaks universally to both of these groups. Each unique collection provides affordable wardrobe solutions that celebrate the versatility of denim and its ability to define style with every new generation.
“The ‘Inspired’ campaign is an idea that taps into the dynamic convergence between fashion, music and culture,” said Julie Gardner, executive vice president and chief marketing officer for Kohl’s Department Stores. “To bring this to life, our brands are connected with some of today’s coolest musical artists – Lenny Kravitz and Levi’s, Avril Lavigne and Abbey Dawn, Hayden Panettiere and Candie’s, Plain White T’s and Urban Pipeline, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus and Tony Hawk and Vanessa Carlton and So – who have been encouraged to bring their own personal vibe to the mix. The result is unique fashion collections available at Kohl’s that will appeal to a diverse group of shoppers. Beginning in July, the multimedia campaign will be seen across marketing mediums that are relevant to both students and their moms.”
In addition to artist-inspired denim collections, the fully integrated campaign consists of national advertising, a consumer engagement contest, in store graphics, online and digital media, direct mail and public relations. The new song “Love Revolution” by Lenny Kravitz is incorporated into campaign elements and was selected for its inspiring message of unity, love and infusing passion into all aspects of life.
