Coleen Rooney launches Littlewoods’ Nice Boots Campaign
Littlewoods.com, the online and home shopping retailer, is delighted to announce a new
television advertising campaign featuring leading fashion icon and face of Littlewoods,
Coleen Rooney.
„Nice Boots Camp‟ campaign launches on the 1st September and runs for six weeks.
Created by Leo Burnett and featuring Nancy Sinatra‟s, „These Boots Are Made for
Walking,‟ the advert was filmed on location at Bentley Priory, Herts using over 35 extras.
The 60” and 40” TV adverts show Coleen and her band of drill sergeants putting some
new recruits through their fashion paces at the Littlewoods‟ Nice Boots Camp. We see the
girls polishing high-heels in the barracks, practising how to “change arms” with
handbags, taking on the assault course and learning to march in time. The ad finishes
with the standard passing out parade and the girls all looking fabulously fashionable
thanks to Littlewoods‟ stylish products and Coleen‟s style advice and guidance.
Viewers are encouraged to “Enrol in Nice Boots Camp” and are directed to the
Littlewoods website where there will be competitions, music downloads and fashion
advice from Coleen.
Coleen is a natural choice for the Littlewoods brand, with a well-documented passion for
style: “This is my first TV ad for Littlewoods and I really enjoyed making it. I loved the
way that the ad features such a wide variety of real women and shows some of my
favourite pieces from the Littlewoods collection.” says Coleen.
Shop Direct Group‟s Retail Director, Gareth Jones says: “We are delighted with the „Nice
Boots‟ campaign and Coleen has proved to be an inspirational style ambassador for
Littlewoods. We are looking forward to continuing our collaboration in the future”
The TV campaign will be supported by Nice Boots Camp digital display banners and a
press campaign.
