Nicole Higgins for Sundance Film Festival 2027 — Boulder, CO
Sundance is coming to Boulder — and it's arriving right in our backyard.
An editorial background built for this moment
Nicole Higgins, Co-Owner and Creative Director at Mahne Roots Collective, has spent her career working at the level Sundance week calls for. She was named 2016 NAHA Men's Hairstylist of the Year, served as USA Cutting Director for Balmain Hair Couture, and her editorial work has appeared in Vogue Italia and Vogue Mexico. Her event work includes the Met Gala, the Emmys, the Grammys, and the Oscars, alongside more than 10 years working Paris and New York Fashion Week. She also works internationally as an editorial stylist under the name Nikay Higgins (crowdmgmt.com/nikayhiggins), represented by Crowd Management Group — one of the few agency connections of its kind based in Colorado, with roots in New York and California.

When the industry comes to Colorado in January 2027, Nicole is ready for it.
