Simon Porte Jacquemus designs a new bottle for the champagne La Grande Dame 2018, the Prestige Cuvée from Veuve Clicquot, part of the luxury group LVMH. The launch of this exclusive edition will take place from September 10, 2025 in the London Selfridges department store.
La Grande Dame is the most prestigious cuvée of the Veuve Clicquot house. It was created in 1972 the two hundredth anniversary of the house. With Jacquemus she keeps her sunny aspect (the original label is yellow). However, the bottle is decorated with a white cloth and yellow embroidery, handwritten motifs, minted sun rays and the iconic Veuve Clicquot Logo.
This collaboration is based on a common veneration: brave women
In the press release, Simon Porte explains that this creation is a tribute to brave women and the gentleness of his mother, an inspiration that is present in almost all of his creations.
“La Grande Dame 2018 is the result of simple materials, significant gestures and stories of strong women. Above all, it is a celebration of optimistic and unforgettable moments. From the happy and radiant spirit to excellent craftsmanship – I admire and share the same values as Veuve Clicquot,” said the designer in the message.
La Grande Dame is a tribute to Barbe-Nicole Ponsardin, known as the Grande Dame of the Champagne, who took over the management of the house in 1805 and revolutionized the art of champagne production. Every year should reflect your vision: bold, elegance and finesse.
The 2018 vintage is considered the sun’s year. It is characterized by an exceptionally hot and dry summer that produced grapes with optimal maturity. Hence the choice of designer Simon Porte Jacquemus, who always celebrates his southern roots and conjured up his vintage memories and summer rituals.
