The French fashion house Christian Dior is once again ringing in the summer season this year. This is celebrated with the opening of his now traditional pop-up in Ibiza. It is the first store to open its doors on the island under the leadership of Jonathan Anderson as Dior’s creative director.
The resort store is located in the same building in Ibiza’s marina that the French fashion house uses season after season for its major summer campaign on the Mediterranean island. It succeeds the last store the brand opened in Ibiza during the previous Summer 2025 campaign. This temporary outlet opened amid the change at the top of Dior’s creative direction. He still followed the guidelines that were in place under the creative direction of Maria Grazia Chiuri, who was responsible for the women’s collections in the French house.
In this capacity, Chiuri designed a final Dioriviera collection. These collections are preferably reserved for these exclusive seasonal stores. Jonathan Anderson only made his debut in October 2025 with the presentation of his first women’s collection.
With this process complete and the start of Jonathan Anderson’s ‘new era’ at Dior, the famous Maison is now returning to Ibiza once again. The British designer’s first Dioriviera collection for the house will be presented there. It is also the French brand’s first resort store on the island, designed under Anderson’s new creative line. These impulses and intentions have manifested themselves in elegant and cheerful nautical, summer and bow-shaped motifs inspired by the works of Frenchman Christian Bérard.
Bérard was a versatile artist and, as Dior points out, one of Christian Dior’s closest friends. For this reason, he was actively involved in various projects for his fashion house. This included designing the interiors of the historic headquarters at 30 Avenue Montaigne in Paris. He also designed the historic boutique ‘Colificchets’. She opened the brand to sell small accessories and began to expand its universe beyond haute couture.
From Ibiza to Capri, via Portofino and Bangkok
The same aesthetic used to create the atmosphere of Dior’s resort store in Ibiza has been implemented by the house in its other seasonal stores. This will be done on a different scale and with different but harmonious elements for the Summer 2026 campaign. This summer season, Dior will have points of sale similar to those on the Balearic island in a number of exclusive holiday destinations. These include Capri and Portofino in Italy, Mykonos in Greece, Bodrum in Turkey and Saint-Tropez in France.
In addition, the French house will bring this relaxed holiday universe to various flagship boutiques. These include the store in Bangkok, the concept store in Seoul’s Seongsu district and the historic headquarters at 30 Avenue Montaigne in Paris. All of these locations are presented to the audience with subtle nautical and maritime motifs inspired by Bérard’s work, creating a unique, immersive experience.
Depending on the boutique and resort store, the experience is complemented by rattan furniture, Maison-designed lounge chairs and parasols on terraces and poolsides. Signature cocktails or boat trips on the Riviera also round off the offer.
“First designed by Jonathan Anderson, the Dioriviera collection is a tribute to Monsieur Dior’s cherished dreams of new horizons,” says Dior. Based on this impulse, this season the main boutiques and the new resort stores present a new scenography “inspired by the world of the sea”. “A joyful celebration of this sun-drenched universe, the installations reveal a fleet of sailboats in bright summer colors,” the fashion house continued. The motifs “unfold on facades and in shop windows and are decorated with playful bows and eye-catching stripes that are reminiscent of the works of Christian Bérard”. At the “legendary 30 Montaigne, large shells gracefully and poetically house perfumes and jewelry as if they were precious treasures.”
