Peacock's online


Claudia found some more online presence of Peacocks. Due to the website being down we were quite desperate to find as much as we could. It proved to be harder than it should be to find things on such a big brand. 

This is some of her information.

I then went on to find a blog that they had set up. This seemed to be aimed at the same target audience we had identified with. 

Young fashionable girls/women that wanted a bargain. The layout wasn't horrific and despite being out of date seemed to be an interesting site to show their products off. 


The Pearl and Daisy Lowe section of the blog was also very interesting and promoted the style decisions of Pearl Lowe. Certain aspects such as:

"The offering, which is Pearl Lowe's seventh collection for the high street store, comprises six dresses - inspired by a mix of the Seventies,Forties and the designer's favourite style icons - Janis Joplin, Joni Mitchell and Stevie Nicks.
"In the Forties, people had to make their own dresses, so everything was so original and beautifully made," the designer said. "The prints, however, were inspired by my favourite singer Stevie Nicks.I predict the black dress with the white lace trim to be another sell out, as it's a follow on from last year's black dress with the lace collar that sold out in a week."

It astounded me that this sort of store was getting publicity like this and was evidently NOT publicising it enough.
