Desirous of joining the inner circle of jewellers, Dior Fine Jewellery moved into number 8 Place Vendôme, in tribute to Christian Dior’s lucky number (he officially founded his couture house on the 8th of October 1946 and gave the name “En huit” (In eight) to his very first collection). Opened in 2001 and renovated in 2010 by the American architect Peter Marino, the boutique has kept the spirit of an 18th century town mansion. Today, it houses the most exclusive Fine Jewellery and Timepiece collections.
