Fashion Couture

Fashion in PR combines fashion with PR in the media and celebrity world, fashion allows ones personality come to life through the use of clothing. How someone dresses is sometimes a great reflection of someones identity,culture,lifestyle and moral conduct. Fashion is all about creativity...I mean art within clothing what a great combination  don't you think? fashion is one of the most important industries that allows you to do this. People are known to do fashion, to show their personality or creativity. Fashion in PR commonly refers to publicity of fashion brands, designers, or shops.

Fashion would not have been anywhere if it weren't for the media attention it received and still receives today
 Designers thrive to seize the fashion headlines on a daily basis and are therefore dependable on media coverage

Since publicity is free Gert-Johan Coetzee  uses free publicity for his designs. Gert-Johan Coetzee is a creative designer who thrives on high fashion and red carpet designs. Gert-Johan has internationally re-

owned for his work with local celebrities and pageant queens. Gert-John is quiet a smart designer, reason being that he uses Bonang Matheba for free publicity for his designs, Bonang is known for her fashion sense and a lot of people look up at how she dresses, plus Bonang is in the entertainment industry and she must always look on point. Now Gert-John endorses Bonang since endorsement is free, in every event that Bongang goes to she is dressed by Gert-Johan, and in that way Gert-John gets free publicity.

The benefit of using Bonang to wear his designer dresses is that its free, Gert-Johan using Bonang as third party endorsement, because its credible and you see Bonang wearing the dresses. Free publicity is cheaper  than to advertise on a magazine and having to pay for exposure and credibility.

Gert-Johan also endorsed Kourtney Kardashian dress, to gain international exposure. Hows that for great publicity?

  4. Using Bonang as a brand ambassador is very clever because she is just loved by the public. I personally think Gerts designs are not that great but because Bonangs wears his clothes, she makes them look good.
