Ahead of Pitti Uomo, I completely reimagined the brand's social presence, shifting it from a corporate B2B channel into an editorial platform covering one of the world's biggest menswear events. By treating the account like a digital fashion publication rather than a brand feed, we created content people actively wanted to follow, resulting in rapid audience growth and significantly higher engagement.
