Sex Appeal, Surf Culture and Seduction: Exploring the Hollister Experience
This exploratory, qualitative study of Hollister draws on written in-depth interviews and subjective personal introspections from customers. Set against the growing literature on sensory servicescapes and experiential branding, the paper demonstrates that the Hollister experience evokes strong and contradictory reactions in those who took part in the study.
