Zalando Be Extranormaal

BRIEF

Inspiring Dutchmen to find their fall/winter style at Zalando, the destination for fashion liberation.

 

THINKING

Dutchmen aren’t known to be the most fashion-forward. They like to play it safe. So how do we challenge that?

Being conservative when it comes to appearance isn’t shyness. There’s a famous Dutch saying: “Doe maar normaal, dan doe je al gek genoeg.” When translated it says “just be normal, that’s already crazy enough”. It’s a deeply rooted cultural truth that every Dutchman is raised with.

 

IDEA

Zalando “Be Extranormaal” encourages Dutchmen to embrace who they truly are. It’s a fashion campaign that brings the most stylish fashion of Zalando to the most ordinary places in The Netherlands. Why not look your sharpest while mowing the lawn?
