EL SAVOIR-FAIRE VIRTUOSO DEL JUEGO DE BACKGAMMON ROSA POLVO

Dior Maison revela, en imágenes, una artesanía única encarnada en un juego de backgammon rosa empolvado. Trabajado por los precisos gestos del artesano, el cuero que viste este objeto de deseo es delicadamente cortado y repujado antes del revestimiento. El icónico Dior Oblique adorna la creación excepcional, con un fondo que se distingue por sutiles toques de gris, el color característico del modisto fundador. La máxima afirmación del estilo Dior, dos series de quince fichas con la estrella dorada de la suerte de Monsieur Dior, acompañadas de dos copas, un cubo de duplicación y dos pares de dados, prometen momentos inolvidables de intercambio y complicidad. Una oda refinada a la herencia lúdica de Dior.

 

GUERLAIN - Exceptional Creations - The Bee Bottle by Begum Khan 2021

GUERLAIN – Exceptional Creations 

The Bee Bottle by Begum Khan 2021

This exceptional Guerlain perfume is priced at 10,000 euros

01 HEADING EAST

With the Bee Bottle, the young designer has cast a bridge between past and future; between East and West. An artistic encounter between two worlds. For Guerlain, Begüm Khan has created a work of art all in gold-plated bronze and encrusted with pavé gemstones; an encounter between East and West, as told by the designer:

“Since embarking on this collaboration, I have been constantly amazed by the synergies between myself, a young Turkish designer, and the centuries-old house of Guerlain.”

02 THE WORLD OF BEGÜM KHAN

Jewellery designer Begüm Kiroglu grew up in a family of Ottoman art collectors. Inspired by the East and by the opulence of Istanbul, she decided to create jewellery brand in 2012. With an abundantly whimsical imagination, she designs works of art that reinterpret nature, flora and fauna, forming a rich compendium of beasts and floral symbols.

03 THE BEE, SOURCE OF INSPIRATION

The theme of the bee is very dear to Guerlain, as a source of inspiration, a decorative motif and the hallmark of an ecological commitment. . A source of inspiration for Begüm Khan: ‘Bees have always intrigued me: they are a common sight, buzzing all around us, and yet their beauty is often overlooked. They are fragile yet strong, and there is something inspiring in this dichotomy. Bees are also synonymous with Guerlain, so they were a natural choice for our collaboration.” says the artist.

04METAMORPHOSIS OF THE BEE BOTTLE

Begüm Khan chose to create a jewel comprising elements that resonate with the West and the world of Guerlain. In the fantastical design, an imperial bee, the Guerlain symbol, escapes from its fanciful and luxurious universe to land for a fleeting moment on the bottle, fringed by four majestic flowers. Each piece is handmade by Turkish craftsmen in a historic workshop near the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul, through a labour of love that imbues every bottle with its own personality and soul.

05 AN EXCEPTIONAL SAVOIR-FAIRE

Crafted in Istanbul workshop, the bronze-set decorative adornment is plated with 24-karat gold and paved with approximately 6,500 coloured gems. One by one, each stone is added by hand. Once placed on the bottle, the precious motif blots out the cartouche. This inimitable, meticulous feat of metalwork takes over fifty hours to complete.

06 LE SONGE DE LA REINE

The exclusives fragrance that comes with the creation, Le Songe de la Reine, brings us before the gateway into the East. This Eau de Parfum opens on a fresh and vibrant mix of mandarin and bergamot, revealing the freshness and the delight of fig notes in its heart, set upon a woody base of sandalwood and cedar notes. “This is a fragrance full of contrasts, wherein the woody notes, in their strength and sensuality, are confronted with the vegetal vitality of fig sap.” says Thierry Wasser, Guerlain House Perfumer.

FRENCH ART DE VIVRE

Louis Vuitton celebrates the House’s savoir-faire in London

THE JOURNEY THROUGH LONDON

Introducing French Art de Vivre: “Louis Vuitton and London” celebrates the House’s savoir-faire and its spirit of permanent innovation.

Featuring an admirable collection of trunks from the Maison’s archives, this exhibition pays tribute to the history that has linked Louis Vuitton to London since Georges Vuitton opened his first store in the city on March 1, 1885. Located at number 289 Oxford Street, this was the first store outside of France.

 

Proud of his family heritage and keen to promote both his passion for design and the influence of France abroad, the creator added the Gallic tricolor flag to his own signage. In one of the windows of the London store he placed a similar sign, along with one of the Louis Vuitton bed trunks used by French officers on their missions abroad, in a first example of singular window dressing.

In 1889, Georges opened a new establishment opposite Charing Cross, one of the most important London railway stations. Years later, in 1900, and with the intention of reflecting the sophistication of his creations, Georges decided to move to the heart of the city’s luxury district, at 149 New Bond Street, near where the current store is located today. .

celebrates the House’s savoir-faire and its spirit of ongoing innovation.

In a tribute to the history that ties Louis Vuitton to London, since Georges Vuitton opened his first store in the city on March 1, 1885, this exhibition houses an admirable collection of trunks from the House’s archives.

The Men’s Club combines historical pieces from the archives together with current collections that exalt British art of lifestyle and entertainment. Created in the legendary Asnières workshop (France), each and every Louis Vuitton trunk brings to life the dreams and wishes of its customers around the world.

The sporting pastimes of the classic British lifestyle take center stage with splendid trunks such as those for poker games and outdoor activities. Trunks for casino games and DJ music celebrate recreational pursuits, while carrying trunks for champagne, wine and caviar extol the art of tasting.

In addition, the Men’s Club honors the spirit of its founder, Louis Vuitton, the inventor of a true “Art of Luggage”, with a selection of trunks for travel by land, sea and air.
