CHRISTIAN DIOR BOUTIQUE IN NEW YORK CITY
A new Christian Dior boutique has arrived on one of New York’s most iconic avenues.
July 28, 2021
Extending over two floors, the Christian Dior boutique in New York City will reflect the diversity of the Dior universes by bringing a wide variety of creations together in a single location.
The new Fifth Anvenue boutique is a fusion of emblematic Dior codes with French tradition. Heritage and abstraction combine harmoniously through a mastery of motifs and colors. The wooden interior, where a color palette centers on light silver and off-white tones accented with beige and pale blues, is softened with furniture in the neo-Louis XVI style to evoke the atmosphere of a Parisian Hôtel Particulier.
Cannage, a House emblem – evoking the Napoleon III-style canework chairs on which Christian Dior would seat guests at his shows – flourishes in delicate punctuations, including in an oversized version of reworked Versailles parquet flooring. Ultimately, the pure-lined motif rises to a spectacular luminous dome, a celestial horizon of monumental proportions. The boutique’s façade was designed exclusively for this location, with Cannage in different layers and scales, lit to create a see-through effect.
