  • GAP clothes were simple and basic and were perfectly offset by recognizable personalities
  • Placed focus on the personalities, rather than the clothes
  • Reinforce the idea that anyone could "be themselves" and "have their own style" in GAP basics
  • Set GAP apart from it's main competitor, Levi's, whose 1997 ads were flashy, loud, colorful and chaotic
  • Capitalized on what was going on in the culture
