In our first episode, we look behind Puma's 'Propah Lady' campaign that broke social media with its insight into what makes a woman 'proper'.
The campaign’s core narrative goes beyond breaking stereotypes and puts focus on how women are owning their stand and living unapologetically. With a fresh perspective, the fun and relatable direction aims to give women an expression to celebrate their individuality and live life through their own mantra — like a ‘Propah Lady.’
Puma partnered with Digitas to conceptualise and bring the digital campaign to life. Led and made by 90% women, this campaign also created a ripple effect on social media; women started sharing their ‘unconventional pictures,’ writing their own rules, and posing as ‘Propah Lady.’
