All About the Brandy Melville Influencer Program

Many A-list celebs have been spotted wearing the brand’s pieces, including Ariana Grande. In fact, the brand’s overnight success is such a phenomenon that in 2014 Bloomberg labeled the phenomenon as  “IG’s First Retail Success”. 

The main driving force behind the brand’s success is its Instagram strategy. Believe it or not, Brandy Melville is similar to Primark, in the sense that they don’t use paid media as a form of marketing and rely solely on word-of-mouth… or IG virality.

Their visual style can be compared to that of Abercrombie or American Apparel. Where photos are edited to look mysterious yet at the same time effortless. Most of the time they feature teenage or young female models, all of which have a similar look: skinny, long hair, and beautiful.

Brandy Melville, like many other fashion brands such as Nasty Gal, relies heavily on the success of their IG account to create a buzz and engage with their customers. And one could say that their platform-centric approach is working, seeing as they boast an impressive 3.2 million followers on their USA account alone.

So, now that we know a little bit more about Brandy Melville’s origins and strategy, it’s time to find out how you fit into all of this.
