TORONTO, March 1, 2021 /CNW/ - Holt Renfrew, Canada's iconic fashion retailer, is proud to announce details regarding its Spring 2021 campaign starring Canadian actor and singer, Jordan Alexander. Kicking off March 1, the campaign highlights Alexander in a photo and video series, styled in a selection of Holt Renfrew's Spring collections. Alexander, a cast member of HBO Max's Gossip Girl, is also featured in a campaign video, singing her rendition of Bruce Cockburn's classic, "Lovers in a Dangerous Time." The song, produced by Toronto-based musical artist, Haviah Mighty is featured on Holt Renfrew's campaign playlist, available on Spotify.
"My grandma always taught me the value of beautifully made garments, and the art of being well dressed" says Jordan Alexander. "I have great memories of wandering the aisles of Holt Renfrew, soaking up all her fabulous fashion tips. She is a complete original and inspired a strong sense of independent self expression in me. We can hardly believe I'm doing a campaign with Holt Renfrew!"
