Levi's | Live Unbuttoned Fall 2009 Campaign | Asia-Pacific

Levi's 501 is launching an integrated creative campaign that aims to evoke a positive outlook on life and embrace the "definitive spirit of undeterred self-expression" of its 501 jeans.

The ‘Live Unbutton’ global campaign was released last autumn. Creative agency BBH Asia-Pacific latest spot moves away from the provocative “Who do you want to unbutton?” theme and takes on takes the campaign to the next level which Levi’s says evokes “tacit optimism and self confidence.”

The campaign engages at a personal level by inviting consumers to cut through the clutter of excess for their “most loved” things in life. “The latest Levi’s 501 campaign is about knowing what truly matters to you, cherishing the things you love, and doing away with the excess,” said Agnes Tann, strategic planning director for the Levi’s Asia-Pacific.

The campaign will officially roll out across Asia in September.
