Social Media Platforms have been gaining attention constantly over the last ten years, and businesses have been showing increasing interest in them, in part because of their great potential in humanizing customer interactions and conveying content directly to users. Many businesses spend time and money on improving their social media content and interactions with their customers. Fashion industry businesses and brands are no exception. It is important for companies to measure the impact of their social media efforts on various performance metrics, to be assured of the effectiveness of these efforts. One area that could be affected by social media engagement is brand awareness, image and perception. Fashion companies tend to be more active on social media during specific time windows, such as fashion week events, and curate their content to be relevant to the temporal context. In the space of Italian luxury fashion brands, we focus on uncovering the relationship between social media success and increase or decrease in their brand awareness. The studied brands have different audience compositions on social media, and hence their results and employed strategies vary.
Le piattaforme di social media hanno attirato l'attenzione negli ultimi dieci anni, anche a causa del loro enorma potenziale nell'umanizzare le interazioni con i clienti e nel communicare contenuti direttamente agli utenti. Molte aziende spendono tempo e denaro per migliorare il contenuto dei social media e le interazioni con i propri clienti. Le aziende e i marchi dell'industria della moda non fanno eccezione. È importante che le aziende misurino l'impatto dei loro sforzi sui social media, per essere sicuri dell'efficacia di questi sforzi. Un'area che potrebbe essere influenzata dai social media è la brand awareness, l'immagine e la percezione del marchio. Le aziende di moda sono particolarmente più attive sui social media durante certi periodi, come gli eventi della settimana della moda, e preparano i loro contenuti in modo che siano pertinenti al contesto temporale. Nello spazio dei marchi di moda di lusso italiani, ci concentriamo sulla scoperta del rapporto tra successo dei social media e aumento o riduzione della brand awareness del marchio. I marchi studiati hanno diverse composizioni delgli utenti sui social media, e quindi i loro risultati e le strategie impiegate variano.

Abstract
Social Media Platforms have been gaining attention constantly over the last ten years, and businesses have been showing increasing interest in them, in part because of their great potential in humanizing customer interactions and conveying content directly to users. Many businesses spend time and money on improving their social media content and interactions with their customers. Fashion industry businesses and brands are no exception. It is important for companies to measure the impact of their social media efforts on various performance metrics, to be assured of the effectiveness of these efforts. One area that could be affected by social media engagement is brand awareness, image and perception. Fashion companies tend to be more active on social media during specific time windows, such as fashion week events, and curate their content to be relevant to the temporal context. In the space of Italian luxury fashion brands, we focus on uncovering the relationship between social media success and increase or decrease in their brand awareness. The studied brands have different audience compositions on social media, and hence their results and employed strategies vary.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
