TENDERNESS PROMOSTYL MEN- WINTER 2015-16

Bundled up in layers of shirts and raw denim trapper's jacket, the Tenderness man carries aesthetics of the Great American West. We imagine him living alone in a hunting cabin built by his hands and surrounded by stacked wood, ready for the cold winter to come. Like any self-respecting pioneer, he wears the eternal bandana around his neck or over his face to protect him from the cold or dust of cattle drives like the heroes of Brokeback Mountain. These sensitive yet virile thirty somethings embody modern-day cowboys who appreciate comfortable materials and enjoy juxtaposing knits and leather or shearling. A wardrobe composed of denim, brushed jersey and knit fabrics with mixes of cables on chunky warm knits for protection and softness for daytime and nighttime. Faded shirts upon which vintage motifs in a floral vein light and blue jeans in an Original Levis spirit are reminiscent of Charles Ignalls - the real life

character who inspired the books and TV series "Little House on the Prarie". Motifs here are resolutely authentic and prints inspired from the early 1900s: adverts, farmers' almanacs, mail order catalogues... A nostalgia for men who took great risks to make a good life for their families and pass down their heritage to future generations. Robust and tactile accessories with backpacks in used canvas, leather boots in cattleman vein. Brushed jerseys and felted flannels, hazy surface aspects and patched-up suspenders, the Tenderness man actively looks for the authentic gear he will life with for years to come. A meditative and relaxing range associating five super pale tints and five stronger shades of colors evocative of plants and birds.

social media campaigns related to the upcoming trend- tenderness

no-shave novemner: movember No-Shave November is a webbased, non-profit organization devoted to growing cancer awareness and supportive funds which go towards preventing the disease, saving lives, funding research, educating, and aiding those fighting the battle. In the Fall of 2009, Rebecca Hill and her friend, Bret Ringdahl, brainstormed ways that anyone - regardless of age, gender or income level - could raise money to fight cancer and have fun doing it. No Shave November was an obvious choice: nearly everyone spends some amount

of his or her hard-earned money on grooming, whether that’s shaving, waxing, trimming or threading. If just for November, those individuals gave that cost (ranging from a few dollars for razors to a $100 salon visit) to a cancer charity instead, friends and family alone could pool together a sizable chunk of change to help cancer patients and their families. So, No Shave November started as a Facebook fan-page with under fifty participants in its first year.


smell like a man, man old spice

“Smell like a Man, Man”, an initiative by Old Spice In February 2010, Old Spice launched a new advertising campaign, Smell like a Man, Man, created by Wieden+Kennedy. The first commercial, “The Man Your Man Could Smell Like,” was an overnight success and quickly became a cultural phenomenon, generating significant word-of-mouth buzz online and off-line, and getting referenced by many celebrity fans. Shortly after the debut of this spot, W+K developed an interactive digital campaign capitalising on the popularity of the “Old Spice Guy.” The result was the Response

Campaign - an experiment in real-time branding featuring the Old Spice Guy posting personal video responses to fans online. The work went on to record more than 65 million views, making it one of the fastest-growing and most popular online interactive advertising campaigns in history.
