SITUATION

STRATEGY


AMP3 used Manufacture New York’s unique approach to tell the story of how LAUNCH NYC would reinvent New York Fashion Week as we know it. The event provided designers with a 3-pronged approach in a space that included a runway, a showroom, and a pop-up store for retail. AMP3 sought out publicity surrounding the announcement of this new Fashion Week, and secured media attendance at all shows and events, leading to coverage of the overall concept of LAUNCH NYC and of each of the participating designers, as well as coverage of MNY & LNYC’s co-founder and lead spokesperson, Bob Bland.
