What did the Oscars nominees receive as a special gift?
For 2015, Oscar’s Best Actress Nominees and Best Supporting Actress Nominees received a “CHAMPAGNE WISHES AND GOLDEN DREAMS” basket designed with every woman’s imagined luxuries in mind. Before the big night the nominees were invited to pamper, toast, treat, and relax like red carpet royalty.
Kerstin Florian International Skincare continued their tradition of celebrating the nominees from this year’s 87th Annual Academy Awards — curating partners to bring together a well-deserved celebratory gift basket designed to pamper, prep, prime, and decompress those pre-Oscar tensions and jitters.
All of the “CHAMPAGNE WISHES AND GOLDEN DREAMS” were beautifully packaged in one stylish genuine crate with fresh floral arrangement by Floral Art. The entire basket — delivered with love — includes items retailing for nearly $5000 including the following treats:
