Burberry isn’t the only fashion brand taking a holistic, cross-platform marketing approach to its online marketing. The lifestyle brand is now the first luxury brand to partner with Twitter in order to create an international, online “tweetwalk” show from London. The event also leverages Facebook, Chinese social networks Sina and Youku, Instagram, YouTube and an on demand live stream to distribute the content across the web simultaneously.

‘’We are thrilled to create the first ever ‘’Tweetwalk show’’ in partnership with Twitter. Twitter is instantaneous and I love the idea that streaming a show can be in many different forms. This collection is all about the most detailed hand crafted pieces and fabric innovation, creating a beautiful physical experience that is communicated digitally in dynamic and diverse ways and I love balancing those two worlds.’’- Christopher Bailey, Burberry Chief Creative Officer

Here’s how you can partake of the whole experience:

TWITTER

Burberry partners with Twitter to create the first ever live ‘Tweetwalk’ show, premiering the Spring Summer 2012 collection with instant backstage twit pics of every look live from London’s Hyde Park show space. Every look will be shared before the models hit the runway, allowing followers to view the collection moments before anyone else. Images can be viewed in full using Twitters new media gallery photo functionality.
