Selfies at Dolce & Gabbana or wearable tech at Chanel and House of Holland aside, this season was all about a renewed focus on social media channels particularly. Innovative campaigns spanned 360-degree imagery on Twitter to a couple of uniquely creative approaches on Instagram and a highly polished example on Snapchat.
