Get those tissues ready, ’cause boy will you need it. Topicals like Mother’s Day really brings out the best from creative agencies, and gives brands a chance to create conversations with their audience and connect with them on an emotional level. This year’s rollout of campaigns for Mother’s Day was perhaps as diverse as we have ever seen over the years. From brands giving an ode to mother figures who aren’t necessarily your birth mother, to the emotions that a woman goes through when she marries someone who already has children from another partner. This year’s campaigns were thus definitely one of the most unique in the themes that they covered.
