SYNOPSIS: Levi’s invited over 100 print and media outlets to San Francisco to unveil the upcoming launch of their “Unbuttoned” campaign.They asked each invitee to submit a proposal in line with their desire to penetrate the urban, high-end denim market. Only one proposal was accepted - Dime Magazine's. 

Centered around the NBA Draft, an all-encompassing online, print and viral marketing campaign was conceptualized using the NBA DRAFT as platform. Levi's and Dime Magazine hosted an NBA Suite inviting the Top 20 draft picks to the penthouse of the Westin New York - for a rookie photo shoot and day-long hang out spot. Word spread and the Draft Suite quickly became the “hot” spot” of the Draft.
