Elle

Ex

We partnered with Prime Video to deliver a creator-first campaign celebrating the launch of ELLE Season 1, designed to reintroduce Elle Woods to a new generation while reigniting the cultural love for one of pop culture's most iconic characters. Across New York and London, we created premium experiences that immersed creators in Elle's world, inspiring authentic, social-first storytelling. From the exclusive ELLE World New York City creator trip to the London premiere, every touchpoint was designed to capture the glamour, confidence and playful spirit of ELLE.

The Brief

Prime Video challenged us to position ELLE Season 1 as both a nostalgic celebration of Legally Blonde and a standalone series for a new audience. Anchored around ELLE World in New York and the London premiere, the campaign used creator partnerships and culturally relevant content to bridge generations of fans. At its heart was Elle's enduring message: staying relentlessly yourself, even when you're the fish out of water.

Welcome to Elle's World

As part of the exclusive five-day ELLE World creator trip, we produced three days of immersive experiences that brought the series to life. From elegant welcome drinks and intimate creator dinners to Puppy Pilates inspired by Bruiser, every moment was designed to reflect the campaign's themes of fashion, empowerment and self-expression. The experience continued in London with exclusive creator access to the screening, junket and red carpet premiere, encouraging authentic content that felt unmistakably ELLE.

The Bridge Between the '90s and Gen Z

The campaign balanced the nostalgia of Legally Blonde with creator-led storytelling to make Elle Woods feel just as relevant to Gen Z as she is to long-time fans. Drawing on the film's iconic fashion, optimism and signature pink aesthetic, we reimagined Elle through a modern social lens while embracing the series' "pink meets grunge" identity. The result was a campaign that celebrated her legacy while confidently introducing a new era of ELLE.

The Result

By placing creators at the centre of the campaign, we transformed the launch into an experience built to generate authentic social conversation. Immersive activations across New York and London produced premium content that reinforced ELLE as both a nostalgic icon and an exciting new series. Together, the campaign helped spark a cross-generational cultural moment around one of entertainment's most enduring characters.

More Work

An epic campaign with kick-butt creative, glamourous events and an elegant, badass experiential activation, befitting of the Pretty Lethal ballerinas.
