British fashion designer, Giles Deacon has teamed up with Molton Brown to celebrate the iconic beauty brand’s 40th anniversary.
Two of Britain’s most celebrated brands come together this month for a unique collaboration, one from the world of fashion and the other a long-trusted beauty brand.
Those being womenswear designer Giles Deacon, who has lent his creative talent to household name and bath and body connoisseurs, Molton Brown. The collaboration celebrates Molton Brown’s 40th anniversary and sees the duo launch a limited edition candle snuff lid, which also accompanies an exclusive anniversary collection of bath and body products.
Designed by Giles himself, the limited snuff lid takes inspiration from Molton Brown’s 1970s roots, when the brand was founded. Bringing together the playful humour of Giles’s signature style with the eccentricity and brand aesthetic of Molton Brown, the silver lid is embossed with Giles-esque swirls, florals and doll-like illustrations. Whether purchased as a gift for a beauty junkie or a little treat for a Molton Brown fan, the chic, retro inspired candle lid will add a touch of charm to any home.
Speaking about the collaboration Giles says, “I love Molton Brown – it’s a brand I have grown up with. They have always been champions of quirky, colourful design and are proud of their strong British heritage, which is something I admire. I wanted to create a timeless design that nods to seventies London style – a bit eccentric but fun with a sense of humour.”
Only 400 of the limited edition lids will be available to buy exclusively at Molton Brown’s online store and at Harrods, so get in their quick if you quite fancy having one on your coffee table or propped up beside the bath.
The Giles collaboration compliments a wider collection that has been launched especially to celebrate the beauty brand’s 40th birthday. Infused with the 70s inspired scents of patchouli and saffron, the heady yet refreshing collection comprises body wash (£18), a nourishing body lotion (£25), a 40th anniversary stowaway bag which includes the wash and lotion (£55) and of course, a Patchouli and Saffron Single Wick Candle (£36).
The collection is all wrapped up in Molton Brown’s signature colour popping brights and nods to the 70s in deep purple, zesty orange and bright pink. This is one beauty collection sure to bring a flash of colour to your bathroom or onto your dressing table.
The Limited Edition Giles Deacon for Molton Brown Candle Snuff Lid is available to buy exclusively at Molton Brown and Harrods, priced at £19.
