Dior has inaugurated House of Dior New York, located at the corner of 57th Street and Madison Avenue, just steps from the location where Christian Dior established his U.S. subsidiary in 1948.

Designed by architect Peter Marino, this unique flagship store embodies refined French elegance in the heart of the city that never sleeps.

Behind the stone façade with its monumental windows, the boutique’s four floors are bathed in light and soft tones, showcasing the different worlds of Dior, including women’s and men’s ready-to-wear, leather bags, accessories, jewelry, watches, perfumes and Dior Maison, creating a subtle dialogue between heritage and modernity. Exquisite materials and Versailles parquet flooring are joined by iconic creations and art works by renowned artists throughout the store, from a garden by Peter Wirtz to a monumental Colorama staircase installation, retracing the history of Dior through its objects of desire.

A realm of excellence,  the House of Dior New York is presenting exclusive creations and pre-launch products. Artist Anna Weyant reinterprets the Lady Dior bag, while Millefiori and Blue Jardin de Dior motifs blossom on garments. The Bois de Rose jewelry collection introduces exceptional pieces set with precious gemstones,  a new variation of the B27 sneakers makes its debut in a limited-edition of just 47 pairs, and special Dior Maison objects are showcased.

The Dior Spa New York on the top floor is a 400-square-meter haven of peace offering cutting-edge bespoke treatments, the fruit of the Maison’s avant-garde spirit, renowned savoir-faire and unique expertise.  Poetic life-size tableaux in majestic bay windows celebrate Christian Dior’s passion for nature thanks to creations in upcycled textiles from the Ateliers, embodying the alliance of virtuoso creative skills and a commitment to sustainability.

Louis Vuitton has rolled out a new Travel Campaign, a poetic celebration of journeys through Chinese landscapes.

More than a journey, the Maison’s campaign captures the contemplative essence of travel, where each stage becomes a personal odyssey and an invitation to discover hidden beauty.

Photographed by Alec Soth, renowned for his signature fusion of documentary realism and poetic artistry, the campaign highlights China as a cultural bridge, far beyond familiar narratives. Honored by a Guggenheim Fellowship with over 30 books to his name, Alec Soth reveals lesser-known inspiring panoramas.

The journey begins along the Lijiang River in Guilin with breathtaking lakes mirroring mountain landscapes. Iconic Louis Vuitton pieces – from the Monogram Horizon to the Soft Keepall, the   Alzer luggage to the Coffet Joaillerie and CoffretTrésor – embody the Art of Travel embodied by the Maison since 1854, a sublime alliance of elegance, functionality and exceptional savoir-faire.

Two more destinations, Zhangjiajie and Datong, will enrich the campaign in the coming months, continuing a visual and cultural exploration that melds innovation, heritage and superb craftsmanship.
