Tory Burch also released an interactive tool for consumers to share their sentiments with one another on the romantic holiday, which falls on August 7 this year. Using the augmented reality-powered “AR Buy+” function on Mobile Taobao, consumers can scan any heart-shape in their surroundings to access a special page that allows them to send personalised letters to their loved ones. Meanwhile, from July 26 to August 9, the fashion brand will launch a Chinese Valentine’s Day-themed pop-up installation in China’s northern Harbin city.
“To have an iconic brand like Tory Burch join Tmall is a testament to the platform’s ability to attract and engage with the 700 million-plus consumers on our platforms for premium fashion and lifestyle brands from around the world,” said Jessica Liu, general manager of Tmall Fashion and Luxury. “We look forward to partnering with them closely to bring special products and creative activations to Chinese consumers.”
