Fashion and apparel is the category where STATS has run the most campaigns. We cover seasonal look proposals, new-arrival wear posts, in-store and pop-up traffic, and brand-film appearances, whatever the format. Because tone varies widely across select shops, denim, traditional tailoring, and streetwear, casting starts from one question: does the brand look right on this person?

HOW WE CHOOSE

How we choose and plan

We choose on 'does the brand look right on them'

The same garment can read as a completely different brand depending on who wears it. Before follower count, we check whether a person's usual color palette, silhouette preferences, and the life visible in the background of their posts sit comfortably next to the brand's tone.

From select shops to traditional tailoring

We've worked across select shops, denim, British tailoring, and streetwear — categories that demand very different tones — and rebuild our selection criteria for each brand.

Hand-built, one person at a time

We don't pull candidates from a database by filter. Every candidate's post history is reviewed individually, with the reasoning for the choice written out before we propose them.

PLATFORMS

How Each Platform Is Used

INSTAGRAM

Worn looks & brand world

Details

The core platform for outfit posts and styling. Feed and Reels carry a brand's world well, and saves and tag searches feed branded search and EC visits. The baseline for casting is whether a creator's imagery holds the look's world intact.

YOUTUBE

Depth for consideration

Details

Long-form room to talk styling range, sizing, and fabric. It suits items with long consideration cycles — outerwear, denim — and brands with a making-of story to tell, pushing viewers toward purchase.

TIKTOK

Buzz & younger reach

Details

Trends turn over fast and planning skill is tested. It reaches younger audiences at speed, but riding a format trend while keeping the brand's tone is the hard part — casting people who understand the platform's context is the key.

SCOPE

FAQ

FAQ

Is it better to rotate talent by season, or keep the same person year-round?

It depends on the goal. Rotating by season reaches a broader audience if you're after new awareness. Keeping the same person builds the association 'that's the brand they wear' if you're establishing the brand's world. In practice, we often recommend a core group who stay on year-round, with new faces added each season.

Can you run campaigns aimed at driving traffic to regional stores?

Yes. The default is building around people who actually live in that area. A post from someone read within the local community tends to convert to an actual visit more reliably than a post from a nationally influential account. We design the casting radius around the store's trade area.

Can we discuss casting actors or models instead of influencers?

Yes. Brand films and lookbooks sometimes call for visual presence over SNS reach. We handle agency coordination, terms negotiation, and usage-rights scope, and can also propose a mix of SNS talent with actors and models.

We'd like to repurpose shoot content into ads — is that possible?

Yes. Reusing posted content in ad delivery is built into the contract in advance, with usage scope and term agreed upfront. We can also plan for ad reuse from the shoot stage. Post-delivery reporting is included through to the end.

How should we choose between commissioned shoots such as lookbooks and sponsored posts on the creator's own account?

If you want imagery that stays as a brand asset, commissioned shoots; if you want to reach the person's followers directly, sponsored posts. Shoots let you control the world-building, while sponsored posts told in the person's own words tend to draw stronger reactions from followers. We can also design a single shoot to capture both lookbook material and cuts for sponsored posts, and roll it out both ways.

When should we start preparing a seasonal campaign?

Two to three months before the season opening is the guide. Working backward from the season calendar, we handle casting and outreach, sample logistics, and the scheduling of shoots and posts. When combined with exhibition invitations, the exhibition date becomes the anchor and work starts even earlier. We can take last-minute requests, but the earlier you start, the wider the candidate pool.

Which platform is the right fit — Instagram, YouTube, or TikTok?

It depends on the goal. Instagram suits building up looks and presenting a worldview, YouTube video suits talking through styling and fit, and TikTok suits generating buzz among broad audiences. We combine platforms to match the brand's tone and target, sometimes assigning different creators to each platform.

How do you structure influencer marketing for apparel brands around the seasons?

We start from the season calendar and give each phase a different role: exhibitions and lookbook reveals build context before launch, wear posts concentrate around the season opening, and styling-oriented posts keep reaching shoppers through the season. For casting, we combine year-round anchors with people rotated in each season, adjusting the ratio to the brand's tone.

What Influencer Marketing Means in Fashion & Apparel

Influencer marketing in fashion means selecting creators who fit a brand's world, then building campaigns — worn-look posts, event appearances, in-store visits — where the brand is told in the creator's own words.

Read more

Because the industry moves on a season calendar (SS/AW), results hinge on planning backwards so posts land at the start of a season, not as one-off exposure. And in a category where who wears it becomes the brand image, what matters more than follower count is contextual fit: does the brand still look like itself when this person wears it?

Keys to Casting and Planning

Put contextual fit first

Check first whether the brand's tone — street, trad, mode — lines up with how a creator actually dresses and their past tie-up history. Metrics like engagement rate and follower demographics come second, as verification.

Plan backwards from the season

Account for outreach, product logistics, shooting, and posting lead times so posts land at season launch or release day. The same post outside the sales window loses much of its effect.

Design past the post — into secondary use

Worn-look posts grow in value when combined with secondary use as ad creative and with routes into stores and EC. Setting secondary-use terms at the contract stage keeps those options open.

Measure, and carry it into next season

We measure reach, engagement, and posting rates, and keep what worked in numbers. In an industry that repeats every season, updating casting and planning from measured results is what compounds into precision.
