Lana Del Rey’s and Brittany Mahomes’ Skims Posts Scrutinized by National Advertising Division

Recommended Posts

I think the FTC’s rules are hugely important for creating transparency, but I don’t really see it relevant to Lana’s posts as they were editorialized, branded photos from a SKIMs photoshoot. 
 

If Lana had been paid by Skims to post a candid selfie with a caption about how much she likes Skims, then I’d understand the importance of clearly labeling it as an “ad”. But the photoshoot was very obviously something Lana had been hired for.

I think it has to do with transparency laws, if someone is paid to promote something they have to disclose that they were paid to do so, so it doesn't seem misleading to the public. For example Lana stans may rush to buy Skims because of her posts, but they should at least know that she was paid to promote Skims and didn't just do it cus she loves the brand

Exactly, none of Lana’s Skims posts have the “paid partnership” label or #ad , per the case decision Skims asked Lana to modify the posts but she hasn’t. 
 

Spoiler

“Skims specifically asked Del Rey to discontinue or modify the three posts that mention or tag Skims without a clear and conspicuous material connection disclosure to include #ad and/or #sponsored as their contract indicates. For compliance purposes, NAD will treat this voluntary modification as though it was recommended by NAD and agreed upon by Skims. “
 

“Since tagging a brand alone does not constitute sufficient disclosure, NAD concluded that a clear and conspicuous material connection disclosure was necessary. “

 


So if you don't know, don't give up , 'Cause you never know what the new day might bring

I don’t know, it kinda makes sense to me but maybe that’s because we have pretty good laws here in Sweden that social media posts must mention if they’re sponsored or an ad. But then again, Lana’s was a model for Skims, so she could maybe get away with it being a portfolio piece and not an ad.
