What is the Pinterest trend badge
Pinterest's trending badges are an insights-based resource that gives a brand exclusive ownership of the trend. This makes that brand the only one to have this trending pin badge on the country's pins, with Pinterest's official stamp of approval. This attracts potential buyers and reinforces the visual appeal of the brand image.
This was the case for Mango, in order to increase website traffic during the spring/summer event season and consolidate Mango's position as a go-to brand for formal occasions, the brand aligned its creative approach with one of the season's trends.
Mango modified its creatives to incorporate "guest looks" as an image statement, while using the "Trend Badge" format. This format gave Mango exclusive ownership of the trend, reinforcing the visual appeal of the image.
