VIRGIO rolls out ‘CHIC-FLIX’ to turn holiday movie nostalgia into shopping journeys

OTT-style interface links festive film fashion to shoppable collections.

VIRGIO has introduced ‘CHIC-FLIX: From Watchlist to Shoplist,’ a holiday-season campaign that blends pop-culture nostalgia with digital retail. The initiative transforms the emotional pull of classic and modern holiday films into a streaming-inspired shopping experience on the brand’s website, positioning it as a fresh content-driven model for customer engagement.

The campaign tackles a long-standing marketing gap—turning momentary inspiration into real purchase intent. CHIC-FLIX features a curated “Watchlist” where each title card recreates iconic outfits worn by leading women in films such as The Holiday, Love Actually, The Proposal and To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before. VIRGIO reinterprets these looks with its sustainable and size-inclusive styles, including pieces from the Beyond The Curve collection. The format creates a direct pathway from on-screen style to shoppable fashion, streamlining the discovery-to-purchase journey.

As part of the promotion, any purchase made in December unlocks “The Chic-Flix Pass,” which offers a flat 20% discount on all future orders for 12 months, based on cart value.

Commenting on the idea behind the campaign, Amar Nagaram, Co-Founder, VIRGIO, said, “Fashion is fundamentally driven by culture, and in December, that culture is unequivocally centered on Holiday movies. The industry has been taking bets far into the future, leading to waste and inefficiency. With CHIC-FLIX, we are flipping the script. We are using real-time social signals and pop culture to showcase exactly what the consumer wants, when they want it, and selling them the narrative, not just the apparel.”

The initiative is designed to elevate customer experience through aspiration and immersion, offering a curated environment where cinematic storytelling and fashion converge. VIRGIO aims to expand this content-led commerce model into a future retail blueprint centred on personalised, narrative-driven shopping.
