DON’T LET THE MOMENT GO

High street fashion retailer River Island is launching its autumn/winter22 collection with its first TV ad campaign created by St Luke’s.

Breaking on prime time TV the campaign leads with the line “Don’t let the moment go”. Inspiring viewers to live each moment to the full, the ads showcase River Island’s new collection, which is designed to encourage shoppers to be more playful, bold and daring this season, whatever happens in life.

The 30-second spot features three women meeting up for a night of partying wearing glamourous outfits from River Island. One of the women gets side-tracked by a piano in the train station and the distraction delays them. As their train pulls out of the station, they realise they’ve missed their planned night out. The women decide to make the most of the moment, and take control of the situation by starting their own party in the station, encouraging passers-by to join in.

Directed by LA-based Christine Yuan through Object and Animal, with an upbeat soundtrack with slow-motion breaks, the ad showcases the gorgeous colours and textures of the new AW22 clothes collection available from River Island in-store, online or app.
