Our Top Picks of International Women’s Day Ads
We love seeing big brands taking the chance and celebrating women through empowering campaigns dedicated to showcasing girl power.
This International Women’s day was no different and we’re quite impressed with some of the ads that showed women’s real power, here are our top picks of this year’s wonderfully empowering campaigns!
Apple- Behind the Mac
This year, Apple took it upon themselves to introduce us to the women changing the world Behind the Mac!
As with all the previous “Behind the Mac” ads, all the images featured are found photographs and none were shot specifically for the campaign.
Advertising Agency: TBWA Media Arts Lab, USA
L’Oreal Paris- STAND UP
We’re in awe with this campaign’s movement to help bring an end to sexual harassment! In partnership with NGO Hollaback, L’Oréal Paris developed an initiative to train a million people in bystander intervention to tackle street harassment.
“78% of women have experienced sexual harassment in public spaces. Only 25% of victims say someone helped. 86% of us do not know what to do when we witness it happening.”
We wonder how many will now stand up to sexual harassment and sign up!
Reebok India- Bruises Can Be Good
This amazing campaign is an experiential advertisement created by Isobar, India for Reebok.
How many of us would jump to the conclusion that a woman is abused if we see her bruised? Almost everyone of us will assume that. But Reebok is here to tell us otherwise, it is here to tell us that sometimes, bruises are the result of a strong female athlete and not a sign of a weak woman!
OLAY – Meena
On a lighter note, this witty ad has portrayed the fierce and daring young woman that we all are! But our glow will remain with Olay. It’s very creative, light and smart.
The campaign highlighted the modern Indian woman (who is about to turn 30) that has just stepped away from old Indian ways of living and wants to live her life to the fullest while upholding her family values.
The insight here is to show she is a Power Duo herself. While one side desires her parent’s and society’s respect and approval, the other side fights for her freedom to explore and push boundaries. And she will not short-change either side. But this means she’s a busy girl, and her skin pays the price as a result.
Levi’s- I Shape My World
Skill is skill. Talent is talent. Her title is her title.
Levis here is teaching us that a woman shouldn’t be defined by her gender, but by her title! After all, we never really say the first male CEO?
#IShapeMyWorld is an ongoing, global initiative dedicated to recognizing the accomplishments of women everywhere, no qualifiers, no exceptions.
Hershey’s- HerSheGallery
Her- She! That simple, that creative! Design advertisement created by BETC, Brazil for Hershey’s.
Women are empowering and they deserve to be empowered, we’re glad that big names like the above are taking it upon themselves to inspire and empower.
