For this reason luxury fashion brand \u2018Valentino\u2019 has decided to host a cocktail party in their Soho store and launch a creative card game: \u2018We\u2019re Not Really Strangers\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-images-1.medium.com\/max\/800\/1*sNTShCpktkiq8usQxetDAA.png\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The game features 25 cards with questions designed to foster intimacy through a series of evocative and personal questions with Valentino\u2019s logo. Koreen Odiney, who is the creator, launched the game in November of 2018, and it quickly gained a cult following. Each card focuses on a deep, thought-provoking question, encouraging the participants to reclaim and engage in an eye-opening, honest conversation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-it-s-cool\"><strong>WHY IT\u00b4S&nbsp;COOL?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018We\u2019re Not Really Strangers\u2019 (WNRS) has been created to focus on connection, empowering others, social sensitivity and positivity to develop a meaningful dialogue where people feel welcome in a fun and authentic way. Through the game, people can break the ice in every situation and begin building relationships. Essentially, it is a reminder to take time to connect with another person. Humans, as social creatures, will always desire and look out for connections. A quote from its creator: \u201cThe game is intended to reflect the shared values of both brands, Valentino and WRNS: empathy, individuality, and positivity.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The game cherishes people\u2019s emotional intelligence in a way that is both creative and unpretentious. At the cocktail party, surrounded by Valentino\u2019s latest collection, guests drank champagne and sipped on classic cocktails specially customized for the occasion. A tequila on the rocks becomes a \u201cMissed Connection\u201d and a vodka martini becomes a \u201cHello Stranger.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-images-1.medium.com\/max\/800\/0*d2H9F8ommj5xVv5l\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-it-has-future-potential\"><strong>WHY IT HAS FUTURE POTENTIAL?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>During the pandemic, when so many of us were isolated, \u2018We\u2019re Not Really Strangers\u2019 became explosively popular. The official Instagram of \u2018We\u2019re Not Really Strangers\u2019 has grown with over 4 million followers, more than 3 million on TikTok and a text-subscription audience of more than 1.2 million people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The business opportunity lies in using the card game at special hospitality events to bring people closer and create bonds in human relationships. \u2018We\u2019re Not Really Strangers\u2019 uses the fundamental power of conversation to build a community in which huge brands can play their emotional intelligence part. In the last few years, we have seen the emergence of a new kind of brand culture, with an emphasis on deeper and more meaningful connections between humans. This is what makes \u2018We\u2019re Not Really Strangers\u2019 magnificently Cool to so many people around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For further information on We\u2019re Not Really Strangers x Valentino please visit:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/hypebeast.com\/2021\/1\/valentino-were-not-really-strangers-card-game\">https:\/\/hypebeast.com\/2021\/1\/valentino-were-not-really-strangers-card-game<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WHAT IT&nbsp;IS?
