In the galleries beginning on this page, you can find over 70 images of financial tombstones and deal toys from the fashion and cosmetics space. You’ll notice that the transactions they commemorate involve a number of internationally recognized fashion, cosmetics, and apparel players and brands. These include, among others, L’Oreal, Vionic, Kurt Geiger, Urban Decay Cosmetics, Under Armour, Pacific Brands, W Magazine, Billabong, and Liberty London.

You’ll also find deal toy designs featuring many of the common trappings and accessories associated with this space. You’ll see designs inspired by nail polish bottles, makeup jars, compacts, as well as fashion runways and dress racks.

But you’ll also encounter a number of transactions involving brands and companies that may be less familiar. These might include those recognizing the acquisition of an Italian manufacturer specializing in metal fashion accessories such as zippers, rings, and buckles; the sale of a surf-themed footwear brand; Series B funding for an AI-enabled fashion recommendation platform; the initial public offering of an Australian retailer providing sustainably and ethically produced underwear; and the acquisition of a French supplier of natural ingredients for cosmetics.

In addition to deal toys, you can also find here designs unrelated to any financial transaction. These include awards and employee recognition pieces custom designed for industry achievements and events. You’ll see, for instance, a fashion industry award, and a custom team recognition piece celebrating the dedication of a major apparel distribution center.
