LG
Mobile Phones and fashion icon Heidi Klum partnered for an event, "LG
Rumorous Night," to promote the LG Rumor2 handset, which is available
through Sprint. Heidi Klum is LG's Ambassador of Style.
LG
Rumor2 comes with customizable back plates and a full QWERTY keypad.
Heidi Klum lent her expertise to design five back plates that were
showcased at the event. Guests were encouraged to follow in Heidi's
footsteps and create personalized back plates to reflect their own
individual style through an online interactive canvas, which is
available to everyone at www.LGRumor2.com.
According to LG, celebrity guests were adorned with custom Tattooed
Steel bracelets that featured the signature butterfly design. Guests at
the party checked out the custom back plates and celebrated a night
devoted to style, beauty, imagination, and personal expression, the
company says.
Other
elements of the partnership include an advertising campaign, online
webisodes, and a consumer promotion. LG Rumor2 print ad is on stands in
the U.S. The ad features Heidi Klum painted with butterflies to match
her own created black plate demonstrating how the phone is an extension
of her personality.
The
eight webisodes will be hosted by Heidi Klum and will live on
www.lgrumor2.com. Here, aspiring fashionistas will have the opportunity
to win a seat at Heidi's Style Council where they will design the next
LG Rumor2 back plate. They will be judged on their creativity and design
execution. The winner will have their design featured in the exclusive
collection, alongside Heidi Klum's creations.
