Heritage Jeweler Mayors Reinvigorates With A Gorgeous New Campaign

Post by PinkDiamond »

I always question how well these campaigns can go when the shots are more about the models than featuring individual pieces in close-ups.

"Modernize, modernize, modernize. The events of 2020 prompted many jewelry brands and retailers to fast-track their way into the digital age, and the call to action is even more urgent as the industry sets its agenda for 2021.

One of the latest companies to take a critical look at its brand strategy is the 110-year-old heritage jeweler Mayors. Founded in 1910 by Samuel Mayor Getz—and the leading multibrand retailer in the southeastern United States—Mayors was acquired by Watches of Switzerland in 2017.

Today marks the launch of a new campaign on the jeweler’s website and social channels, the first in a series of initiatives marking a new era for the store that includes a revamped e-commerce site, updated store interiors, and an expansion of its southeastern U.S. footprint.

Our first step was to create a campaign that would speak to our vision while honoring our heritage. This imagery will undoubtedly resonate with a broad audience and sets the tone for the Mayors of the future.”

To develop the campaign, Mayors worked with a firecracker team of creative talent, including creative director and photographer Jay Gullion, with additional photography by Marc Regas, and stylist/newly appointed editor-in-chief of Grazia USA David Thielebeule. As the faces of the campaign, models Juana Burga and Gizele Oliveira point to the brand’s prioritizing a diverse consumer target.

Set in a dreamy modernist hilltop home in California overlooking Topanga Canyon and the Pacific Ocean, the campaign strives to be both aspirational and attainable as it relates to women, style, wardrobing, and investment.

The overarching goal, according to the official announcement, was to enact a story that reflects ... "
