Wrap-up
The campaign’s success lay in its refreshing and unique approach for the Zara brand, involving micro-influencers who had never participated in creator marketing before. This authenticity resonated deeply with South African audiences, as real shoppers shared genuine, first-hand experiences with Zara’s e-commerce platform. The strategy of choosing everyday fashion enthusiasts over traditional influencers not only delivered exceptional engagement metrics but also built consumer trust in the new platform. It achieved a historic milestone as it became the first African campaign to trend #1 globally on Twitter, driving significant traffic and credibility to Zara’s e-commerce platform.
