Neiman Marcus launched its Holiday 2022 campaign titled Make the Moment

This brand new, company-wide endeavor incorporates a 360° approach, inspiring joyful festivity, new twists on traditions, and big-hearted inspiration across advertising, in-store visuals, special events, digital content, and videos, as well as the revered Christmas Book and annual Fantasy Gifts.

“Our Make the Moment campaign is an extension of our brand idea, Live Your Luxury,” says Darren “Daz” McCollChief Marketing Officer, Neiman Marcus. “It takes the freedom and the boldness of individual style and places it in a holiday setting, where highly memorable, tradition-twisting moments are made. It’s a celebration of optimism and inclusivity in which relationships are cherished. Our Make the Moment stories highlight Neiman Marcus’ unique ability to curate and deliver the extraordinary.”

Make the Moment‘s anchor element is the beloved Christmas BookNeiman Marcus’ annual tome dedicated to seasonal shopping and festive finery. (The Christmas Book has been continuously reimagined for over ninety years.) Ultimately, the spirit is ebullient, the mood is high, and the smiles are wide as this family celebrates the night before with kid-like mischief (piling a golf cart high with gourmet treats, for one) and, of course, the boldest and chicest of the season’s sartorial offerings, with over 260 brands — ranging from Saint Laurent to Christian Louboutin to Moncler — featured in the mix.

The Christmas Book features a unique new feature for 2022: an Augmented Reality (AR) experience activated by a QR code on the cover, which empowers customers to become their own creators. Neiman Marcus has created a series of AR experience filters: A “NM Christmas Tree” and a “NM Christmas book.” When scanning the QR code, smartphones will automatically open Instagram stories, with both filters at the ready. The Christmas Tree filter allows for the virtual decoration of a tree that you can virtually place inside your home, office, by the pool or wherever you choose, while the Christmas Book filter inspires customers to take a photograph that will function as a custom cover shot, so you can appear as part of the traditional Christmas Book cover.

Make the Moment also serves as a complementary vehicle to launch Neiman Marcus’ dedicated Ski & Snow collection. This distinct curation—with a dedicated section in campaign and The Book-–includes both technical-wear and après ski essentials. Ski and snow, in addition to the categories above, will be promoted throughout Make the Moment‘s omni-channel campaign.

Neiman Marcus style advisors are on hand to assist and curate customers’ holiday season dressing needs, with inspiration from Make the Moment or if going a different route (a moment is only a moment if it’s individual and special to the creator). From exclusive gifts to home decor and entertaining essentials, style advisors are there to help create your gifting moments, guiding customers every step of the way through in-store consultations or virtual video calls, emails, texts, or direct messages. Neiman Marcus’ inCircle program is available to offer services such as gift wrapping, boxing, and more.

Featured in The Christmas Book are Neiman Marcus’ famed Fantasy Gifts, which, in 2022, are all about creating unforgettable and inimitable moments in line with the campaign’s name.
