Dior Exhibition at Harrods: French Savoir Faire and British Charm

Sah chic.

I am little slow off the mark on this one. The highly anticipated exhibition, said to be a cross between "French Savoir Faire and British Charm", opened its doors to the public in possibly the most famous department store in the world on March 16th, but due to life I only got down there a few days ago.

Expectations are bound to be high when one of the most prestigious department stores in the world teams up with an eponymous French fashion house and expectations were met. After leisurely waltzing up to the fourth floor of Harrods, you're greeted with a wall embellished with an intricate dolls house-type design, with silhouette figures and mini Dior perfumes in the window.

Inside, there's what can only be described as a shrine to their cult perfume J'adore, with hundreds of bottles neatly placed on a platform surrounding the stunning number Charlize Theron dons in the J'adore advert.

There is still way more to see and do than the things I've taken photos of, such as the in-house Dior Café serving Christian Dior's favourite dishes, from lobster club sandwiches to adorable Dior cupcakes. Admission is FREE and it's definitely worth it so get down there before it ends this Sunday (the 14th).
