Over the past few months, [Snapchat](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dress-up) has been ramping up its social selling features in partnership with several major brands and recently, it played host to a first-of-its-kind in-app fashion show from [adidas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/indian-shopping-app).

The Fashion 5 Ways show was shared on Snapchat's Discover page recently, giving social media users the chance to get their hands on the adidas Originals Falcon W style with ease. By swiping up within the app, users were taken to a [Shopify](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stage-ten) page where the footwear style could instantly be purchased.

Fashion 5 Ways is a show that specifically targets young female women between the ages of 13 to 24 who want to see the many different ways closet staples, like sneakers, may be worn.
