AMV BBDO wins Grand Prix WARC Award for Libresse/Bodyform campaign #bloodnormal
A campaign by AMV BBDO for Libresse/Bodyform has won the Grand Prix in the Effective Use of Brand Purpose category of the 2018 WARC Awards, a global search for next-generation marketing effectiveness.
The global campaign ‘#bloodnormal’ for Bodyform, the feminine hygiene brand, used a digital film to break taboos and connect with women globally.
As well as winning the Grand Prix, the campaign also won the Evaluation Award, for a brand purpose strategy that has gone the extra mile in measuring both commercial and societal impact.
“This is an unbelievably great case study. It makes me proud of advertising,” said jury member Jo Arden, Chief Strategy Officer, MullenLowe Group UK.
A further three Golds, five Silvers, four Bronzes, and two more Special Awards have been won in the Effective Use of Brand Purpose category, which recognises marketing initiatives that have successfully embraced a brand purpose and achieved commercial success as well as a benefit for a wider community.
