Xiaohongshu, known for its lively user-generated content (UGC), is proving to be a strategic asset for luxury brands seeking growth and engagement opportunities. With its 300 million monthly active users, including over 80 million contributing to diverse lifestyles and consumption patterns, Xiaohongshu has become a hub for young consumers exploring new trends.
Compared to other platforms, Xiaohongshu’s user base is more brand-savvy and open to fresh experiences, making it an attractive space for luxury brands to explore innovative marketing approaches.
Louis Vuitton’s recent online reshowing of its Womenswear Pre-Fall 2024 Shanghai runway on Xiaohongshu garnered significant attention, attracting 470,000 viewers and setting a new record for luxury brand livestream viewership on the platform. Similarly, Givenchy and Gucci have also experienced success with their Xiaohongshu livestream events, driving engagement and interest in their collections.
One notable aspect of Xiaohongshu is its focus on “quiet selling,” where anchors guide consumers in a more subtle and elegant manner compared to the overt sales pitches seen on other platforms. This approach has proven effective in attracting luxury shoppers who seek refinement and authenticity.
Additionally, Xiaohongshu hosts a diverse array of influencers, including Key Opinion Consumers (KOCs), who play a crucial role in sharing genuine product reviews and opinions. Brands are increasingly leveraging these influencers to enhance credibility and engagement with their target audience.
Furthermore, Xiaohongshu’s unique features, such as mini-programs and online malls, are being utilized by brands like Dior and Vacheron Constantin to create personalized experiences for consumers and drive sales.
With Xiaohongshu’s growing influence in the luxury market and its ability to offer brands tailored solutions for reaching consumers, it is poised to become a key player in the luxury ecosystem. As more heritage houses like Hermès join the platform, it is clear that Xiaohongshu will continue to shape the future of luxury brand marketing.
