The Global Gap Effect

Building fashion relevance through creators

The Brief

Build on Gap’s 2024 resurgence with an always-on global creator ecosystem, turning renewed cultural relevance into sustained brand and business growth across social, site and in-store.

The Approach

The challenge was no longer getting Gap back into the cultural conversation, but keeping it there. Through an always-on ecosystem of 2K+ creators across 15 markets, we made every Gap moment bigger - turning product drops, styling moments and cultural collaborations into content audiences actively chose to watch, share and make their own.
‍
From putting creators in the creative director’s seat to taking Gap to Coachella, reviving iconic ’90s fragrances and turning Better in Denim into a global participation moment, creators didn’t simply showcase product. They styled, interpreted and gave Gap new cultural meaning - making the brand unmissable and desirable to a new generation.
‍
Across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Substack, Gap.com and in-store, that attention translated into participation, product demand and measurable commercial impact.

The Payoff

Comparable sales by the end of Q2 2026 had increased by 10%.
