TU's audience are normal women who want to feel on trend but aren't sure how to work the styles. We wanted to position TU with a distinct identity, desirable but also down- to-earth, so that they become the go-to brand for everyday style solutions.
Build awareness, encouraging Sainsbury's female customers to browse the full TU range. Key is
bringing to life TU clothing in a way that reflects different people's personalities and sense of style
which will in turn drive purchase. The aim is to establish TU as a credible clothing brand.
'Wear It Your Way' - We partnered TU with celebrities (Lisa Faulkner, Louise Redknapp, Kate Garraway and Heidi Range) who showcased how they would wear one hero piece for 4 different occasions, elaborating on how they would style their outfit for specific events.The aim was to showcase TU's versatility and how well it fits into people's busy lifestyles.
It featured in the print and online fashion pages of Now, Look and Woman, with the websites live during the same dates as the print to double the impact.
