This Devil Wears Dior and is All Over the Details!

Our roving photographer, Nicole Freezer Rubens writes:

After a 4 year renovation the new Christian Dior store reopened on 57th and Madison, nestled next to several of its flagship cousins. LMVH has invested time and great fortunes to create the most incredibly beautiful and innovative stores for their signature luxury brands, neighbors Tiffany & Co. and Louis Vuitton, which is actually only a temporary emporium during their 4 year renovation on the same block.

All of these shops were designed by architect Peter Marino, who captures the brands’ overall message by combining cutting edge design with fine art, plush carpets, and the most unexpected, whimsical details. Every flower is always fresh and kept fresh. Marino had been working with Dior since 1994 and as is evident in this grand store, has a deep understanding of the Dior design that preceded and inspired him.

I highly recommend visiting all 3 grandiose establishments. The beauty and intention on display is a mind blowing museum of fashion, interiors, art, and texture. Let true fantasy and creative genius take you down the rabbit hole for a quick visit to the lap of bona fide luxury, beyond your wildest daydreams!
