French lingerie brand Aubade has always been well-known for being pioneers in the world of lingerie but even more so in its lingerie advertising campaigns. Their skillful advertising campaign hasn't changed in over a decade and rely on marketing each new lingerie set as a “lesson” in seducing men. Hence the name, "The Lessons of seduction"

This lingerie advertising campaign is one of a kind and clever. But, why is their advertising campaign so unique and unconventional?

Here's an explanation from BrandChannel:



• "The photographs are shot in black and white and show a beautifully proportioned woman in Aubade lingerie. The lesson is provocative and slightly tongue in cheek."




• "The lessons are intended to draw women together by sharing tips on how to charm a man, but are risqué enough to appeal to men."




• "The campaign never shows the model's face. The strategy is that the woman can better identify with the faceless body, while the ads are still sexy enough for a man to feel he is buying something special. "
  



• "It is also an ingenious cost-cutting strategy as the company does not have to pay reproduction rights on the photographs. The classy feel of the black and white pictures help position Aubade as a luxury brand"
  
  


• Aubade relied on famous photographers such as B Matussiere, H Lewis, Michel Perez to capture the essence of the Aubade woman: feminine, classy and elegant but at the same time bold, daring and playful.
