Download - Transformers Costume Characters June 2015
At Transformers we love to create Couture Costume Characters
that guests can’t resist posing with. Always relevant and truly
shareworthy, they are worth their weight in gold. We can also
provide a photographer with a wireless camera to upload
hashtagged images directly to Instagram.
Introduct ion
Original Creat ionsCollaborating with the world’s finest creative talent, transformers-in-chief Danielle
Nay has been producing headline-grabbing, share-worthy costume characters since
1996. Transformers is proud to offer a unique array of imaginatively-themed couture
acts to provide talking points at events in the Middle East. These are available as
strolling acts or living tables.
Amongst our innovations are Arabesque Lantern, Palme d’Or, Lord & Lady Steampunk,
Venetian Chandeliers and Rosetta Red Carpet. We also have an edible collection -
Eye Candy – and a sports-themed portfolio, dubbed Trophy Wives.
Our costumes – which can be customised for brands – are created here in the UAE,
where we also cast talent. Makeup and wig/hair styling are critical to the look and
we pride ourselves on our exceedingly high standards, working with and training
some of the region’s finest talent.
Remember, if you don’t see it here, we can probably make it for you!

With the addition of a 3-tiered
mirror & perspex table, our

table can also be combined with
other characters: examples
include Material Girl and Venetia.

ChandeliersWe created a pair of these wonderful

well with beaded flapper dresses or
modern evening gowns.
