This season, a Kohl's Holiday Pop-Up has launched in New York City and targeted Snapchat users will be able to experience the event from afar through a portal lens on the social platform. The Snapchat portal lens invites app users into a 3D version of the event space and gives them the ability to shop the featured products. Virtually, Snapchat users are also able to pose with a Vera Wang avatar in the Simply Vera Vera Wang shop.
Kohl's is also introducing other social experiences for the holidays, including an activation on Twitter for same-day, on-demand product deliveries and Pincodes on Pinterest on in-store signage that can be scanned to quickly access Kohl's Pinterest board.
