In support of the new activewear brand for women, Zalando releases an exclusive TV campaign with a full circle digital roll out in addition to Print and OOH placements. The campaign features Beyoncé and her dancers wearing IVY PARK in an urban park setting. The park embodies a place where you feel physically strong and is at the heart of the campaign. For each Zalando country a local adaption is made to reference their country: United Kingdom, Where is your park?

Besides the TV campaign, Zalando created a dedicated digital hub and activation #MYPARK for activewear lovers to share their park. As true beauty lies in who we are, through the hashtag activation Zalando invites consumers to share a place where they feel most confident and strong. On the hub people can find out all about IVY PARK and their favourite product. For every local market, Zalando teamed up with local influencers, who will be sharing their #MYPARK on the hub and own channels.

The collection for both on and off the field embodies the vision of empowerment, strength and wellbeing for all women, wherever they are,” says Carsten Hendrich, VP Brand Marketing Zalando.
