JCPenney: Young Moms 2010

New look. New year. Who knew! It was JCPenney’s tagline and mantra in 2010, especially as they sought to show part of their audience — mothers of young children — that the store wasn’t just the place to go for kids’ dressy clothes, but also for everyday style, furniture and accessories.

Through fun lifestyle photography and children’s fashion tips, T3 helped change their perceptions — reminding moms that JCPenney had everything they needed at all the right prices.

T3 worked with JCPenney from 2001 through 2010.

Through a series of unexpected digital experiences, T3 showed how JCPenney can help teens create, express and share their personal style.
