Vir Das’s Weirdass T-shirts
When Vir Das is not doing stand-up comedy or poking at the Indian Commercials objectifying women, he’s busy thinking of designs and punch lines to put on his brand of clothing. He launched his own line of graphic t-shirts under his company’s name — Weirdass — in 2015 in an attempt to make slogan t-shirts cool again. And we like it.
Das’ company is working with a bunch of brand across categories and formats. For the launch of Rebtel, a Sweden based technology brand, Weirdass came up with a series of eight digital videos, 100 tweets, and 50 memes. For Flipkart’s Big Billion Day (2014), it created two videos; for the lifestyle clothing brand Bossini, it did a digital survey around happiness to resonate with the brand’s ‘Be happy’ positioning. There is a soon to-be-launched digital campaign for Nivea as also for apparel and a shoe brand, Das lets on. Titan was a part of Weirdass’ live show ‘Unbelievable’, and also got 12 videos generated in the process. “There was so much of demand for comedy across genres and formats, from brands to agencies to live festivals to award shows and TV channels, that it really turned into a hard-to-ignore opportunity,” adds Das.
Let’s have a look on little twinkles that shows collaboration or partnership with an eCommerce website in short Stores for Shopping
The last few years has seen the growth of e-commerce sites, which sell latest international trends online. With the spread of these sites, e-commerce has allowed accessibility to customers in remote places where a brand is not present in brick and mortar store format. This has fuelled interest in western wear and latest trends in the younger generation.
Myntra, Jabong’s main rival in this market with some 650Male Celebrities’ Clothing lines available, is following a similar path. There is an online environment that has already been created and ready for these brands to take advantage of. The nationals or internationals player does not fear its brand will get diluted in any way by listing online with these portals. Further, it is easier for them to test the market without having to incur heavy costs – these instead fall on the online retailer, which pays for its exclusivity in having to buy and stock large inventory.There is widespread expectation that Amazon, a relative newcomer to Indian e-commerce, will expand its fashion offer.
The business of selling clothes runs on the equation of need or demand; demand for ‘nice’ & ‘affordable’ clothes, which can be bought conveniently from the comfort of home using the Internet. On the other hand, the business of fashion runs on the ‘desire to be in vogue’. Both these businesses have different audiences and require different styles of marketing.
