These are the luxury watch and jewellery brands turning heads in the media space.

Over the last decade, collaborations between luxury brands and contemporary artists have gone beyond mere artistic partnerships towards a new kind of luxury branding.

PARIS – Art and fashion have always developed side by side, for fashion, like art, often gives visual expression to the cultural zeitgeist. During the 1920s, Salvador Dalí created dresses for Coco Chanel and Elsa Schiapparelli. In the 1930s, Ferragamo’s shoes commissioned designs for advertisements from Futurist painter Lucio Venna, while Gianni Versace commissioned works from artists such as Alighiero Boetti and Roy Lichtenstein for the launch of his collections. Yves Saint Laurent’s vast art collection, recently auctioned at Christie’s in Paris, testified to his great love of art and revealed the influence of a variety of artists on his own designs.

In the 1980s, relationships between luxury brands and artists were advanced when Alain Dominique Perrin created the Fondation Cartier. In the Fondation Cartier pour l’Art Contemporain, a book marking the foundation’s 20th anniversary, Perrin says he makes “a connection between all the different sorts of arts, and luxury goods are a kind of art. Luxury goods are handicrafts of art, applied art.”

For the period of June 2015, Tiffany & Co. consistently outperformed competitors on Instagram and ranked as one of the most coveted brands in Tead’s Luxury Barometer popularity mapping.

However, Cartier also featured in the popularity ranking attracting attention with variations of its Nouvelle Vague campaign. In June, the brand published 6 videos on Instagram, totaling 102K interactions, and counting for almost 1/3 of total interactions.

Overall, the top of the popularity rankings were steadily occupied by Tiffany & Co, Cartier, Bulgari, Rolex and Swarovski.

Jaeger-LeCoultre rose to place eight, earning nine places vs. May activity with the largest increase within the Watches & Jewellery category, while De Grisogno’s performance and activity slowed down, dropping seven places vs. May.

Barring Instagram though, it’s Cartier, Jaeger-LeCoultre and Piaget together which hold over 90% of total views for the month in video terms.

The “Other Brands” category brought together 0.3% of total interactions across 17 brands such as Chopard, Hublot, HYT and Rolex, each of them below 0.1%.
