Short-Form Luxury Series

Saks Teamed Up with Content Creators on TikTok for a Challenge

— February 15, 2022 — Marketing
Saks officially made its debut on TikTok, and from now on, it will be using the Gen Z platform to unite a diverse group of voices and create an engaging luxury series of short-form videos. To kick off its launch on the platform, Saks teamed up with content creators Larsen Thompson, Everett Williams, Chanel McKinsie, and Maddie White to develop its very first content series on TikTok. The influencers participated in a shoe flip transition challenge that focuses on highlighting loungewear, shoes, and party looks that can be purchased at Saks.

Notably, Saks' presence on TikTok follows two digital-first initiatives; the Spring 2022 campaign and the Saks Stylist personal stylist and shopping service. On TikTok and beyond, Saks is speaking to a new generation of luxury consumers.
