Make Merry, The Nordstrom Holiday
Campaign
Nordstrom encourages customers to "Make Merry" through this
year's marketing campaign, which was inspired by the happy,
sometimes hilarious mid-revelry moments that turn the season into a
celebration. The campaign features a wide range of people—from a
multi-generational family to moms and their daughters, close
friends, and partners—experiencing real joy and connection by
coming together in the magic of the holiday season. The
campaign, produced by Nordstrom, intentionally mixes styling from
the cast members' own wardrobes with Nordstrom merchandise to
authentically showcase each individual's personal style.
The resulting photos and videos will run across multi-channel
media throughout the season, along with a selection of real-life
family snapshots from Nordstrom employees and friends of the
brand.
The holiday campaign marks the first time that the retailer is
using a signature song to accompany marketing efforts. The song is
a remix of the song "Never Be Another You" originally released by
Lee Fields and The Expressions in
2016. Shaina Shepherd, an emerging Seattle-based singer, is backed up by a band
composed of Seattle-based
musicians. The song represents how Nordstrom sounds. It was
produced with Seattle-based
artists and we've been using it across a variety of work.

We Make It Easy and Special
This holiday season, Nordstrom is committed to making holiday
shopping for yourself and others easy and convenient with gift
wrapping, Santa Sacks, free virtual
and in-store gift help, curbside and in store pick up, styling
services and personalization.
- Free Gift Wrap
This holiday season, Nordstrom will offer four unique holiday gift
wrap prints inspired by different holiday celebrations at Nordstrom
stores. Full-service gift wrapping is available at Nordstrom stores
including a variety of gift wrap, gift tags and ribbon options.
Customers can pick up their Nordstrom.ca orders with free gift
wrapping in-store and curbside at Nordstrom stores. Customers can
also pick up their Nordstrom.ca orders gift wrapped in silver gift
wrap from their most convenient Nordstrom Rack store. For shipped
orders, customers can add a free gift message, purchase a
$3 DIY gift-box kit, have their item
gift boxed for $5 or bring their item
to Nordstrom to be gift wrapped for free. Plus, all holiday gift
wrap and gift boxes are 100% recyclable.
- Santa Sacks
Reusable burlap Santa Sacks were a
customer favourite for bundling gifts last year, so we're bringing
them back again. Customers can shop medium Santa Sacks for $32, large Santa
Sacks for $38 at Nordstrom.ca
and in store with DIY personalization kits. Customers who purchase
Santa Sacks online can bring them to
any Nordstrom for complimentary personalization.
- Free Gift Help
Nordstrom is here to help you make your holiday gift list and check
it twice. Customers can make and share their Nordstrom wish list
with a stylist or salesperson and schedule a virtual or in-store
gifting appointment.
- In-Store and Curbside Pick Up
Customers can pick up their Nordstrom.ca order at their most
convenient Nordstrom or Nordstrom Rack. Curbside pickup is
available at all Nordstrom stores. Toronto area customers can enjoy free 2-day
shipping on selected items and pick up tomorrow at Nordstrom or
Nordstrom Rack for more choices. Bonus: you can pick up your
Nordstrom.ca purchases gift wrapped for pick up at curbside or in
store.
- Get Styled with Free Styling Services
Nordstrom stylists will help you look great and feel your best for
whatever you're doing this holiday season. Whether you need an
outfit for holiday family photos, your company party, a dinner
party with friends or cozy weekend wear, Nordstrom stylists make
shopping easy and fun. Customers can schedule a virtual or
in-person appointment with a stylist at Nordstrom to help with
personalized outfit recommendations.
- Make it Personal
One of the best ways to make a gift special is to personalize it.
Whether you're adding initials to a denim jacket or a name to a
blanket, Nordstrom tailors can help make your gifts as unique as
the recipient. Visit any Nordstrom
Canada store to get your gift personalized.
- Make a Holiday Shopping Plan
This holiday season, we
anticipate the hottest gifts may sell out on our sites and shipping
could take longer than we'd all like due to global supply chain
challenges and shipping delays affecting manufacturers, retailers
and shoppers around the world. Knowing there are challenges gives
customers an opportunity to make a holiday shopping plan. We think
it's smart to build in a little extra time to make sure you're able
to check off everything on your list. Throughout the holiday
season, we invite customers to filter on Nordstrom.ca to see what
product is available for Pick Up Today at their most convenient
Nordstrom store.
Make a Difference
Nordstrom is committed leaving the world better than
we found it. This holiday season, along with our customers we will
support Operation Warm and Big Brothers Big Sisters of Canada and
America. By 2025, we aim to raise $5 million from cause-marketing campaigns,
including holiday, for core partners who support families.
- Donate to Operation Warm: From October 18 through December 31, Nordstrom
customers can support Operation Warm and help provide brand new
coats to children in need by adding a donation to their
Nordstrom.ca purchase. On November
30, customers can purchase a giving tag in Nordstrom stores.
Just $31 provides a brand-new coat to
a child in need.
- Donate to Big Brothers Big Sisters of Canada: From
November 30 through December 31,
customers can purchase a Sponsor-a-Moment tag at Nordstrom Rack
stores.
- Buy a Gift Card: Nordstrom donates 1% of all gift card
sales to nonprofits across Canada and the U.S. Nordstrom gift cards
are 100% recyclable.
- Gifts That Give Back: Looking for a gift that gives back
or aligns with your values? We offer brands that are responsibly
manufactured or packaged, made with sustainably sourced materials
or ingredients, or give back with every purchase. Connect with a
salesperson to shop sustainable gifts and gifts that give back like
Treasure & Bond, tentree, Nudestix and many more, or find
details in the product description when shopping on
Nordstrom.ca.
