@Burberry AR experience
Burberry creates Augmented Reality Pocket Bag Experience.
To mark the Spring/Summer 2021 launch of the Pocket bag, Burberry has created an augmented reality experience that allows users to design their own 3D Pocket bag sculptures, inspired by the maritime themes of its SS21 campaign.
Named ‘In Bloom’, the collection takes inspiration from a modern mythology, a contemporary fairy tale where a love story blooms between a mermaid and a shark, darkly romantic and unexpected. These unique sculptures can then be seen in AR and captured for sharing across social platforms.
In addition to the inspirational AR experience, users can also shop the latest Pocket Bags on Burberry.com, utilising an AR tool to place AR versions of the pocket bags in their surroundings and see them at scale against other real-life objects. The tool allows users to explore four different shapes and sizes of the new pocket bags, simulating the in-store experience in a digital realm. The AR Pocket Bag experience is available for customers globally on Burberry.com and on the Burberry app.

BURBERRY BRINGS PRODUCTS TO GOOGLE SEARCH THROUGH AUGMENTED REALITY
Burberry also launched an Augmented Reality shopping tool through Google Search technology. The AR tool allows
consumers to experience Burberry products embedded in the environment around them, enhancing their research and shopping experience online.
When searching for Burberry items using Google Search on their phone, consumers can see an AR version of the
product at scale against other real-life objects. For example, a user can place a TB bag next to an existing outfit to gain a better understanding of the product before purchasing and simulating the in-store experience.
The inspiration phase of the decision to purchase is becoming increasingly important for luxury consumers. Burberry is continuously experimenting with digital innovation such as AR to create a more exciting experience and enhance personalised luxury commerce, blending the technology with other activations around the world.
