The Challenge
eBay was entering the Russian market and needed a go-to-market strategy to build awareness and engagement among fashion lovers. My role was to develop and manage a Telegram channel dedicated to fashion enthusiasts, with full creative freedom.
The objective: position eBay as the ultimate destination for unique vintage and designer finds, unavailable on local marketplaces. Grayling agency case, creative director — Alexander Loginov.

Positioning
After an in-depth market analysis, we identified a gap in the second-hand fashion market — while Russians love fashion, high-quality vintage pieces were difficult to find locally. The rising trends of vintage sustainability and fashion curation made this the perfect time to introduce eBay as the go-to platform for rare, high-value fashion finds.
Positioning
The ultimate destination for rare fashion finds — from archival designer pieces to unique vintage treasures unavailable in Russia.
Gateway to global fashion
Access to brands and styles unavailable locally. A sustainable and smart choice — high-quality second-hand as a conscious alternative to fast fashion.
