The full-scale eye wear imitation vinyl stickers are deceptive, initially leading viewers to believe that they represent a sunglasses company. Despite what the images let on however, the installations actually promote the [Riviera Privé](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/balmain-beach-club), an exclusive pool and bar lounge for Riviera Hotel guests. The reflective Riviera Hotel adverts have been produced in association with République Beirut, a middle eastern marketing agency. At the bottom right corner of each poster there is a slogan that reads, "Be Seen." The caption reflects the exclusive nature of the Riviera Privé scene, and further resonates with the sunglasses imagery which conjures up visions of being watched. The mirrored Riviera Hotel signs have been placed within the region's most luxurious restrooms, and will no doubt attract a new swanky clientele batch. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.2/10 - Popularity: 69% | Activity: 80% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Marketing](https://www.trendhunter.com/marketing) > [Publicity Stunts](https://www.trendhunter.com/publicitystunts) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Vinyl Sticker Marketing:** Exploring the use of vinyl stickers as a creative advertising tool can capture attention and engage viewers in a unique way. - **Deceptive Advertising:** Utilizing deceptive advertising techniques can generate curiosity and intrigue, compelling consumers to learn more about a product or service. - **Exclusive Lounge Promotion:** Promoting exclusive lounges or services through creative marketing campaigns can attract a desired target audience and enhance brand reputation. ### Where This Applies - **Hospitality:** The hospitality industry can leverage reflective marketing campaigns to create memorable experiences and attract new clientele. - **Marketing and Advertising:** The marketing and advertising industry can explore new and deceptive techniques to engage consumers and drive brand awareness. - **Fashion and Accessories:** The fashion and accessories industry can partner with hotels or resorts to create unique advertising collaborations using visually intriguing elements like sunglasses imagery. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Provocative Guerrilla Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mwcurated.md) - [Transformative Luxury Voyage Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ritzcarlton-yacht-collections.md) - [Deserted Island Billboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/silk-spice1.md) - [Global Hospitality Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/raffles-hotels-and-resorts.md) - [Immersive Hotel Art Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hotel-art-installation.md) - [Luxury Fashion-Inspired Hospitality Initiatives](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/burberry-and-the-standard-ibiza-hotel.md) - [Smart Glasses-Compatible Ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rayban-meta-smart-glasses.md) - [Reimagined Artwork-Based Travel Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-art-of-travel.md) - [Terrace Brand Endeavors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beachfront-pop-up.md)
