Fashion designers are among the highly social bunches, but they are rare and specific in interests. Therefore, after the team organizing the Melbourne Spring Fashion Week (MSFW) chose to increase their use of social media to increase the number of audiences, they were certain that they would get it right.
MSFW is among the annual productions to expect in the City of Melbourne and displays both local and international designers as part of the economic development and marketing activities of the city. The commercial and marketing executive manager, Lucan Creamer, the vision of Melbourne is to drive the fashion industry’s economic impact. They have plans of encouraging people to attend the fashion show and inspire them to shop.
Creamer also believes that they have to do more in relation to the customer insights, particularly when it comes to the customer behaviors and the work that IBM did on social analytics at the earlier Vivid Festival in Sydney inspired them. That resulted in MSFW collaborating with IBM and serving as the official innovator and technologist. MSFW focused on audience and customer insights to lead their strategies and to ensure that they were innovating enough to remain ahead in the fashion industry.
