Summary

This marketing study examines how sustainable social media content and brand identity affect consumer engagement with fashion brands. While not a science paper, consumer behavior toward sustainable fashion is relevant to demand for lower-microfiber synthetic textiles.

Social media posts are a good way for organizations to show their sustainability and good deeds. This paper investigates the effects of sustainable posts on consumer engagement in the fashion industry. We will show social media posts alone will not be enough to engage a consumer with a brand. Brands that are known to be sustainable brands will have more engagement with sustainable content. The purpose of this study is to identify the impact content type, brand identity, and brand price-point have on social media engagement and social value.
