Why it worked
The video effectively taps into the 'old money' aesthetic, which is a popular trend on social media, by showcasing aspirational lifestyle imagery and luxury products. The use of a native mention format, with the brand name subtly integrated into the visuals and on-screen text, makes it feel less like a direct advertisement and more like curated content.
