Aventura Mall welcomes Dior’s Versailles-themed holiday boutique
Dior Beauty has returned to Aventura Mall for the holiday season with its latest pop-up installation, the “Dior Ball of Dreams.” Running from November 3, 2024, through January 5, 2025, the installation brings elements of Versailles to South Florida’s popular shopping destination.
Drawing inspiration from Christian Dior’s admiration for Château de Versailles and the grand costume balls that highlighted French cultural heritage, the Dior Ball of Dreams reinterprets this theme with elaborate décor. The pop-up features golden embellishments by Italian artist Pietro Ruffo and layers of intricate lighting, creating an immersive holiday atmosphere.
Visitors are greeted by a gilded Christmas tree within the mall’s Center Court, setting the tone for the festive display. The journey continues through a golden Hall of Mirrors that showcases Dior’s iconic fragrances curated by Perfume Creation Director Francis Kurkdjian, including J’adore, Miss Dior, and Sauvage. The experience also includes holiday makeup selections for the season, created by Peter Philips, Dior’s Creative and Image Director for Makeup.
Further along, the boutique presents a glowing gallery showcasing Dior’s luxury items, such as Jean-Michel Othoniel’s L’Or de J’adore, Eva Jospin’s Miss Dior Mini Trunk, and the Sauvage Elixir x Baccarat Limited Edition, all underscoring Dior’s craftsmanship.
As a nod to Christian Dior’s appreciation for gift-giving, the boutique features a Gifting Atelier where clients can receive personalized consultation services and unique gift customizations, rounding out the holiday shopping experience.
