The 2017 Grammy’s Awards took place on Sunday, February 12, and celebrated the world’s musical talent.
The Denman team met with award nominees, celebrity stylists and media as the VIP sponsors of a gifting suite produced by Red Carpet Event at the SLS Hotel in Beverly Hills. Lucky attendees received a limited edition D3 brush featuring illustrations by Northern Irish artist, Emma Geary, AKA Anarkitty. AnarKitty’s main style focuses on strong and individual women in today’s culture but gives them a feminine twist. AnarKitty’s style and vision complements the brand image with three brushes completing the collection: Sassy, Ruby and Goldie.
‘Sassy’ – The Modern Fashionista
This illustration is a tribute to the late, great Vidal Sassoon, which incorporates the famous asymmetrical bob hairstyle. The bob is finished with the Denman crown and Sassy sports a stylish rococo swirl dress
‘Ruby’ – The 1920s Flapper Girl
Ruby’s style reflects on the roaring 20s era with the iconic finger wave hairstyle and flapper dress with influences from The Great Gatsby.
‘Goldie’ – The Swinging 60s Girl
Goldie incorporates the popularity of bouffants and beehives, with the make-up inspired by Twiggy. The Sixties brought in the mini dress with bold psychedelic prints and this has been the influence for Goldie’s style.
Manufactured in the United Kingdom, the D3 is the brand’s most popular brush and is sold worldwide to over 60 countries.
