Fashion Month is thriving on social media, with SS25 Fashion Weeks seeing a 16% year-on-year growth, achieving a record $840 million in Earned Media Value (EMV). This season, the "less is more" approach emerged as a pivotal strategy for brands. While fewer profiles posted fashion week content, those who did saw increased engagement and visibility. This suggests that the content creators who contributed were more influential and relevant, resulting in a greater impact.

As a result, influence and celebrity continue to play a significant role, with the devoted fandoms of stars driving substantial media value around their idols' names. Storytelling emerged as a crucial element, both in the format of shows and in the talents brands partnered with—ranging from athletes who captivated audiences during the Olympics to cultural leaders shaping today's zeitgeist. And there's more to come.
