In a world where fashion, pop culture, the internet and society are increasingly interconnected, José Criales-Unzueta explores the relationship between influencers and brands in Connecting the Dots.
In the past, fashion brands only invited VIP guests or bloggers to attend their shows and receive pieces from their collections. However, with the rise of social media influencers, brands began to see the value in leveraging their attendance to promote their shows and current collections. This led to a mutually beneficial relationship where influencers were dressed by brands in exchange for promotion.
As time passed, this practice evolved into a strategic partnership between influencers and brands, with social media playing a key role in promoting fashion trends. As influencers gained more power and influence, they began to work more closely with brands to satisfy their desires for access and collaboration. However, this shift in power dynamics has sometimes come at the expense of authenticity and audience engagement.
For brands, having influencers wear full looks from their collections creates a cohesive image that can be used for promotion and marketing. However, mixing and matching outfits can often be more interesting for audiences. This tension between brand promotion and audience engagement highlights the complexities of the influencer-brand relationship in the digital age.
Ultimately, the relationship between influencers, brands and audiences is constantly evolving. As fashion continues to adapt to the digital landscape finding a balance between promotional strategies and authentic engagement will be crucial for its future success.
