Who doesn’t want a taste of luxury? Café Dior opened up its ultra-chic café on top of its new flagship store in Seoul in 2016. This store’s beautiful design represents silk fabic gift wrapping falling from its object as the ribbons are removed from the top.
Like the store itself, the actual “gift” or store in this case houses a beautiful and modern interior selling all the latest designer wares and fashion from Dior. Dior is a big brand in Asia and well-loved for its feminine and decadent Parisian style aesthetic.
A friend and I went to its newly opened dessert café located in Apgujeong in the Gangnam-gu District of Seoul. Apgujeong is home to all your big designer flagship sores and is very much coveted by those aspiring o the luxury lifestyle.
The café only serves desserts that were created by the famous French patisserie Pierre Herme. The presentation and decadence of these desserts are beautiful and the seating all present the season’s theme of the brand.
The Desserts!
I chose the Strawberry Parfait, while my friend opted for the Millifeulle Infiniement Vanille. Take a look:
We sat in an airy, light and simple space offering very cool views from the rooftop.
As the café is placed atop the building, you are obligated to walk through the store’s many curated levels offering its collections from Dior. It is rather worth it to explore the spaces and get a taste of how the décor and spaces are made to accentuate the season’s themes.
It was a chic experience and one worth checking out.
