Gap launches fall denim campaign starring Inde Navarrette

Gap launched a fall campaign called “Denim on your own” that pairs actor Inde Navarrette with singer-songwriter Malcolm Todd. The spot, directed by Tanu Muiño with creative direction by Gap’s Calvin Leung, features Todd’s cover of Robyn’s “Dancing on My Own” and was rolled out across Gap’s digital and social channels, email, stores and out-of-home placements (including billboards in Times Square and on Sunset Boulevard). Paid media elements will run on major social/video platforms and via creator partnerships. The campaign highlights Gap’s continued focus on music-and-movement-driven marketing and follows recent celebrity collaborations that have helped revive Gen Z relevance and improved comparable sales.

Express launches Y2K-inspired 'Too Easy' campaign

Express launched a fall marketing campaign titled "Too Easy to Look This Good," starring musician Tinashe and NFL player Tee Higgins. A 30-second hero video—directed by Colin Tilley, choreographed by JaQuel Knight and produced by London Alley—spotlights a Y2K-inspired denim-led collection and will run across streaming video, digital, social, print, in-store and online channels. The effort builds on Express’s "Dress to Express" brand platform (launched February 2025) and uses a social-first creator community called The Expressionists to extend the campaign.
