I will focus in the launch of their new men’s collection. • Format: My media kit will include news release, biography of Elie Tahari, a backgrounder of Elie Tahari, a feature article showcasing Elie’s success, a blog posting of the launch of his men’s line, and a social media page strategy. • Objective: I intend to create awareness of the new men’s collection and raise the company’s exposure in the men’s clothing fashion world. My plan is to inform the intended audience why the Elie Tahari men’s collection is for them. • Intended Audience: The intended audience for the Elie Tahari men’s collection is, but not limited to, the successful bachelor who recently graduated from college, has a good career, and a steady lifestyle. He dresses according to what his GQ and Esquire magazines say. He is trendy, confident and a role model in the fashion world. This collection is intended for men who have a hard time dressing for their busy always-onthe-go lifestyle. • Angle: The angle for this media kit is the introduction of the new men’s collection with an emphasis in human interests to make the collection a success. • Key Ideas: The main idea of this media kit is to make sure the collection will make men feel comfortable while also making them feel like a million bucks. Elie wants to ensure his clothes fits accordingly in order to compliment and help men look the part, considering that fit is the key factor. By learning how to incorporate different articles of clothing, men will learn how to navigate throughout their day easily, without being over or under dressed. • Length: The media kit will be approximately 14 pages with the outline. • Deadline: Tuesday, May 29, 2012. 11 W. 42nd St. 14th Floor, New York City, New York 10036 T 212.890.3456 F 212.890.3450 ELIE TAHARI ELIE TAHARI ELIE TAHARI ELIE TAHARI ELIE TAHARI Audience Definition Sheet The Elie Tahari man has a very busy lifestyle, from business events to happy hour, from the office to a date, etc. He has many interests and hobbies varying from sports to soldout local events. Enjoying the finer things in life, he loves to travel whether it is with his family, significant other, or a fun getaway weekend with the boys. He likes to stay on top of the latest trends that his bibles, GQ and Esquire, recommend. Elie Tahari is a luxury American designer, however he is from Israel. With the men’s collection we want to make sure we succeed within all the ethnic groups that enjoy shopping the brand. The main targeted age groups are younger men in their mid 20s to late 30s, college students and/or recent college graduates. Also, educated and financially comfortable men who have successful careers, are fashion savvy in their 40s and up, but are not limited to a college degree. As a well-rounded individual, he has an international reputation, speaking more that one language and is comfortable traveling to foreign countries. The Elie Tahari man is influenced by style and trends but does not want to be categorized as anything other than best dressed. He looks up to his role models for style and depending on who it is, his style will reflect upon. Elie wants to capture the influences between the father and the Hollywood movie star by finding a medium that successfully compliments every man. 11 W. 42nd St. 14th Floor, New York City, New York 10036 T 212.890.3456 F 212.890.3450
