“turning the world of beauty on its head”

above: 3 gravity defying posts by @portermagazine @carlossoare and @karencollisnphoto form 100’s of initial posts form the day of the event that resulted in multi-million “earned impressions” on top social channels
net-a-porter engaged ceft and company to assist in their anniversary event for net-a-beauty, NAP’s beauty division that features meticulously curated cosmetics and fragrances exclusively available at net-a-porter.

for the event (which you can see here) ceft and company proposed, and built, an upside-down room at the venue. the guests were asked to help NAP in “turning the world of beauty on its head” by taking a photograph of themselves, upside down, and sharing the results on their social media.

the question was; “that’s great fun and all… but would serious editors at vogue and harper’s do this? or is this left to young influencers at the event?” well, one of the first to post the picture on her instagram was vogue’s very own beauty director, sarah brown, followed by other top editors form teen vogue, huffpost, byrdie, popsugar, glossybox and others… and here’s what style.com – vogues digital site – wrote about the event.

the results were an unexpected 13,000,000 impression within just 3 days of the event, and this was not accounting any press articles, not to mention that this accounts for only the posts tagged with the “suggested” #netabeauty hashtag, which not everybody followed. view all work related to this project.
