What is Drapers Social Summit?

Fashion retailers and brands are increasingly relying on the complex world of social media marketing to drive growth.

From quantifying influencer activity to building communities on new platforms and the ethical conversation around surveillance capitalism, there is much to explore. And identifying how these trends fit into the wider marketing mix is a constantly evolving challenge.

To uncover these opportunities and help the industry explore best practice, we are launching Drapers Social Summit on 5 June 2025.
