# Name the store, open on best piece

A fashion format, measured November 8, 2026 by Volume. https://tryvolume.app/working/fashion/name-the-store-open-on-best-piece

Put a mass-market store name in the hook and open on the most dramatic find, filmed in-store. It worked for 5 accounts, with a median of 7x their usual reach. Type: Angle. Seen as: Talking head, Video.

## Why it works

Viewers know exactly where to buy it, and opening on the best piece avoids a slow intro. The store name plus 'new' adds shopping intent.

## How to make it

1. Name the store and season or 'new' in the hook
2. Cut straight to the standout piece within a second
3. Show a rack-to-mirror or fitting-room try-on

## Hook formula

New at [store] for [season]

## How this is measured

- Every post is compared with its own account's usual reach, not with other accounts. "14x their usual" means the post got 14 times the median views of that account's recent posts.
- TikTok videos and Instagram Reels are measured on views. Instagram carousels have no view count, so they are measured on likes against the account's usual likes, and say so.
- A post makes the library at 2x its account's usual or more. A format is a repeatable move (what is said or shown, or how it is edited) that several accounts used in breakout posts. It is listed here once it worked for 3 or more different accounts.
- Formats rank on how many accounts they worked for and how far above usual, damped so a fluke on one tiny account cannot outrank a format that worked for ten.
