Today Charlotte Tilbury announced the launch of the world’s first virtual reality experience starring the iconic and globally renowned supermodel, Kate Moss. The dazzlingly beautiful VR experience was created in conjunction with global content production studio and VR specialists Happy Finish, and film director Antoine Wagner. It is the latest element in an extensive global campaign from the world’s no.1 makeup artist celebrating the launch of her much heralded debut fragrance, Scent of a Dream.
The launch also marks the first ever VR experience from a beauty brand to be shot using the new and widely acclaimed Nokia Ozo camera, the world’s first professional virtual reality camera. The fully immersive experience can be viewed on virtual reality headsets including Samsung Gear, or on Google Cardboard, while mobile and desktop users can access a bespoke version of the experience via the Facebook and YouTube apps. Consumers and Charlotte Tilbury fans will also be able to interact with the experience in store via bespoke Scent of a Dream VR pods, exclusively in Charlotte’s Beauty Boudoir in Covent Garden and Selfridges W1 from August 18th, with more rolling out across stores in the US and UK later in September.

TURN ONE WAY and you are soaring through astral wormholes into your wildest dreams with the legendary supermodel and icon, Kate Moss. SPIN IN YOUR CHAIR and you are zooming past constellations to dance and kiss amongst the stars with her beautiful co-star, Nathan Mitchell.
The VR experience was filmed and imagined by acclaimed artist and director, Antoine Wagner, and captured on the same set as the iconic Scent of a Dream film (also starring Kate Moss), shot by award-winning director, Baillie Walsh.
This is the latest element in an extensive global launch campaign for Charlotte’s debut fragrance, which also incorporates innovative media formats such as shoppable Snapchat opportunities, Facebook Canvas units and high impact page takeovers, all of which serve to cement the beauty brands’ reputation for embracing new technologies and breaking new ground within the beauty industry.
