WHAT WE DID

GY was briefed to recreate ‘New York fashion week for haircare,’transforming the traditional conference space in the Lyrath Hotel into a premium, adaptable and stylish setting to showcase the latest hair industry trends. Using two 3m x7m LED screens left and right, with a central narrower screen positioned to create a stage entrance, GY transformed the room to create a visually impactful catwalk runway, in addition to an 8m wide stage for product demonstrations and on-stage styling. Using black drape and a high gloss floor, GY transformed the room into a dark, atmospheric space that allowed each of the 7 haircare brands featured in the showcase to tailor the lighting, music and video content on-screen to their unique brand personalities, giving a dynamic and varied experience for attendees.

For the attendees, GY managed a seamless event experience from registration through to evening gala dinner, with impactful branding, decor, entertainment and overall on-the-day event management.
