With back-to-school season coming, Kohl’s (KSS) and Candie’s are making the most of a partnership with Britney Spears by developing an Internet microsite that sells the intermeshed brand and personality with some style. Kohl’s is deploying Candie’s brand –- which it sells exclusively on license from the Iconix Brand Group (ICON) –- and Spears as its point of attack for the back to school season. The microsite unifies and fleshes out the retailer’s Candie’s/Spears initiative. Best of all from the retail perspective, it provides direct links to Kohl’s E-commerce website, so there’s no pesky delayed gratification to impede a purchase from consumers enticed by the styles showcased. The home page offers Spears in a little black dress and invites viewers to shop Kohl’s immediately or to “Watch Britney Through the Lens.” Consumers can shop Kohl’s by trend in two designations, girls 7 to 16 and juniors. Clicking on the trends for those groups brings up a range of apparel and accessories. They also can shop by product category. The Britney presentation includes samples of each photo shoot, so it employs different settings and different clothing. Each opens from a camera lens graphic to show a posing Spears, but the frame includes links to Kohl’s E-commerce web site in every case. Consumers can access the Spears microsite from Kohl’s through its brands directory or through the Candie’s website, which offers a more elaborate presentation including behind-the-scenes videos for the photo sessions and, of course, a link to Kohl’s.
