Top 100 Marketing Trends in August

From Blonde-Specific Haircare to Snackable Self-Care Kits

— August 28, 2021 — Marketing
The August 2021 marketing trends help brands break through consumers' walls and strengthen their relationship with them. These unique campaigns and activations span all industries, ranging from pet care and cosmetics to beverages and travel.

One notable trend from the August 2021 marketing trends comes from Cheetos and Bad Bunny. The pair recently joined forces to launch a loungewear collection by adidas that merges Bad Bunny's iconic style with Chester's classic orange "Cheetos Look." To access the merch, fans can use Cheetle iD – a first-of-its-kind Cheetos x adidas e-commerce experience.

Another intriguing marketing example from this month is the PATRÓN and John Geiger Streetwear Collection. The new series pays homage to the rich history of Mexican culture and includes stylish socks and eye-catching long-sleeve shirts.
