REVOLVE came up with a vaccine-ready category and people reacted.
The pandemic has challenged the marketing skills of various brands and that has led to the introduction of many designs which are in line with the current situation. Some of them make sense while others are a bit too much.
A brand called REVOLVE has released a separate category for ‘vaccine ready’ apparel and that has received a mixed response online.

When you shop during the WH press briefing and you see that your favorite online retailer @REVOLVE literally now has a section “vaccine ready” with category “Shoulders out for the vaccine”
This isn’t a joke 😑

The plan backfired and REVOLVE had to remove this category from their website.
