Blogger Cameron in Scotland! | Abercrombie & Fitch Diversity & Inclusion...

Hey Dudes & Bettys,

How are y'all this week? It's only a short post from me this week, but about one of the most important things in any workplace: Diversity & Inclusion. I don't know if any of you have noticed the hundreds of 'A&F Diversity and Inclusion Challenge' videos on YouTube - those which are posted by the Company's stores. This dosen't just include A&F stores, but Hollister, Gilly Hicks and A&F Kids all participate. I've picked out six of my favourite videos... :)


 HCo Lakeland Square Mall, FL (USA)

HCo Festival Walk, Hong Kong (PRC)

HCo GranVia2, Barcelona (Spain)

HCo Altmarkt Galerie, Dresden (Germany)

HCo Walden Galleria, Cheektowaga, NY (USA)

HCo Europa Passage, Hamburg (Germany)


Also worth a notable mention...



#ERASEEXCLUSION



Which one's did you like? Have you spotted another really good video? Be sure to let me all know in the comments section below!

Also, check out the cool new mobile cases from Abercrombie & Fitch for the iPhone 4/4s and iPhone 5. They're $26 from the A&F website. These aren't showing on the UK website yet, although, I'll keep all of you informed :)

Stay FIERCE!

Abercrombie & Fitch in Munich! | Beautiful Diversity and Inclusion Video...

Together, we are one...

Check out this beautiful video from the A&F Munich team in honor of Abercrombie & Fitch Diversity & Inclusion. It carries the musical piece My Name Is Lincoln – originally composed by Steve Jablonsky for the 2005 film, The Island – which your Editor-in-Chief, C.E.R., and German correspondent, Sabrina, figured out after some quick thinking. ;) It's a piece that you may have heard before in other short videos or commercials carrying humanitarian, naturalistic, epic, or sweeping emotion themes. In essence, this video captures the epic majestic beauty of our human diversity, in a casual down-to-earth manner, as can be found in our everyday lives...amongst our peers...amongst our brethren...and how cool and significant it is for union, positive productivity, and the betterment of our selves as a whole. It is a message that is by a group of the greater worldwide Abercrombie & Fitch family, but that transcends the Company and all walks of life...

BEHIND-THE-SCENES! | An Abercrombie & Fitch Look Book Photoshoot...

After having launched the A&F Looks feature online back in 17 July 2010, Abercrombie & Fitch now finally gives the fans a look at what goes on behind-the-scenes. Makeup, pose, and FLASH!



It is incredibly fantastic to have a peek backstage and become familiarized with the process...if only in a short little video such as this one. It would be very amazing for Abercrombie & Fitch to engage its fans more with insightful cool videos bringing us to a closer, intimate level with the Company.

Abercrombie & Fitch may be the coolest fashion retailer on the planet, but it doesn't match the level of intimacy between customer and company as, for great example, do Burberry, Louis Vuitton, and Dior...brands known less for their cool, and more so for their exclusivity, yet commanding 14 million, 11 million, and 10 million Facebook likes, respectively. Those are levels much higher than A&F which has recently stagnated in growth of Facebook likes. (BTW, Dior just this month surpassed the 10,000,000 mark). Basically, there's more to success and maintaining customers interested than just blasting transparent cool; and from A&F, it's a cool – the same ole idea of "cool" – being criticized by analysts as being no longer enough. Time goes on and evolution is the natural flow of things. Honestly, from A&F we want to see more than just pictures of abs. It's not that no one adores the display of beefcake, but rather that it's just an up-front fleeting public relations ploy and nothing more...and seemingly now the only trick in the bag (apart from annoyingly recycling and overphotoshopping photography of seasons past). We all want a return to all things fresh and new with a forward eye into the future, and most importantly to get close and personal with the HOTTEST company – to engage and enjoy! The A&F Club...this video above...hopefully the humble start of wonderful more stuff to come. Keep it moving, keep it new, keep it evolving energized and bold...and always keep it FIERCE! Together, Company and fan, we're invincible...

Stay FIERCE!
