YouTube is one of the leading video content sites online to date, and the company recently announced it has launched a dedicated Fashion Section on the platform. The brand states its new Fashion Section will be “the ultimate destination for style content that bridges both our fabulous endemic creator community and the more traditional worlds of fashion and beauty."
The new section will enable YouTube to leverage its massive beauty and fashion community and will likely be populated by iconic "beauty gurus" who give makeup tutorials, closet tours, and do shopping haul demonstrations -- a portion of YouTube widely visited by the 14-35-year-old range. This new development could give the brand significant advertising power for a large portion of the fashion-focused demographic.
