Dubai - Arab Today
Luxury brand Christian Dior this week opened the latest in its series of international pop-ups in Dubai.
Taking place in the largest shoe department store in the world, the pop-up shop is located in The Dubai Mall.
Up for grabs is Maria Grazia Chiuri’s debut Spring 2017 collection, a ready to wear offering which marks a new page for Dior with the fashion house’s first ever female creative director at the helm.
Shoppers can expect to be enchanted by sheer dresses, tulle skirts and carefully embroidered evening gowns as well as a stellar line-up of accessories.
Also available is a politically powerful t-shirt emblazoned with the slogan “We Should All Be Feminists,” a sartorial statement inspired by feminist writer Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie whose words have also been featured in Beyoncé’s feminist anthem “Flawless.”
A portion of the t-shirt’s sales will go to Dior brand ambassador Rihanna’s Clara Lionel Foundation, Vogue Arabia reported Sunday.
The pop-up is part of a series of similar shopping concepts launched in Japan, Seoul, Singapore, Beijing and Shanghai as well as Los Angeles and Paris.
Dubai’s Dior pop-up is set to run until March 25.
