#covered #uncovered  was an advertising campaign used at the Superbowl final in 2014. Before the air of the actual Superbowl advert, H&M made a grand prize giveaway on Facebook and in stores for a chance to meet David Beckham (the model for H&M's body wear line). H&M engaged with the audience through the twitter campaign by letting the audience decide which version of the commercial will air real time through the hashtags '#covered' '#uncovered'.

H&M market their clothes using posters, the appeal of this poster is the price, the price is low and therefore used to entice the reader. The price of the coat is the main talk of the photo and put in a large font to attract the reader. The model is an attractive women, who seems to be wearing the coat alone with some heels, this may be used to show to the women in the audience that they can look just like the model. Additionally, the effect of the model only wearing the coat shows the audience that the coat may have some sort of sex appeal. Furthermore, the coat may be the only thing the model is wearing so there is no other diverted attention placed on any other clothing item, it is the coat or nothing. 'Coat' is used on the poster for simplistic reasons, making the selling easier, one choice, one coat, one price.
