Dior “reinvents” its Harrods, London, boutique
Published
September 25, 2025
Dior has revamped its longstanding space inside luxury London department store Harrods with the boutique having now been extended.
The label has been present in the Knightsbridge store since 1949, which was a few years before the brand even opened its UK subsidiary.
The space now covers over 500 sq m and is “bathed in light and enhanced by an elegant, nuanced palette”.
The collections available there include the bags and jewellery as well as its shoes and ready-to-wear. And for the first time in London, “an exceptional range of evening dresses is also presented for a touch of extra distinction”. Plus there are two private suites for “exclusive consulting services”.
The space has the House’s Versailles parquet flooring – reinvented in a ceramic version – that’s complemented by the Rosacea motif in front of a Colorama. The brand’s symbols “are reimagined as miniatures in a graphically striking, colourful composition”.
And echoing Christian Dior’s love of art, the boutique is adorned with works by Jim Lambie, Brandon Logan, Gabriel Hartley and Etienne Moyat, as well as featuring unique furniture designed by Frank Evennou, Andrea Salvetti and Alasdair Cooke.
This year it will also add pieces from the Dior Lady Art project, “combining heritage and contemporary boldness through reinterpretations of the Lady Dior by international artists”.

Brazilian cosmetic maker Natura swung to a recurring net loss in the third quarter on Monday, hit by slowing consumer demand in its local market, as well as challenges in the firm’s brand integration in Latin America.
The company’s net loss came in at 119 million reais ($22.02 million) in the July-September quarter, reversing a 301 million real net profit recorded in the same period a year earlier.
It also reported recurring earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) at 577 million reais in the period, a decline of 33.7% year-on-year.
According to Natura’s financial statement, the firm faced revenue challenges throughout its operations, with net revenue reaching 5.2 billion reais in the third quarter, down 13.1% from a year earlier.
In Brazil, Natura’s largest market, where economic growth has slowed amid the highest interest rates in nearly two decades, net revenue fell 3.7% year-on-year to 3.2 billion reais.
“The slowdown in the beauty market in Brazil, first identified in June 2025 and still ongoing, has led to the growth of the Natura brand stabilizing after a period of low double-digit expansion,” the company added.
In its Spanish-speaking Latin American markets, Natura cited integration challenges following the July merger of its Natura and Avon brands in Argentina.
Net revenue in these markets fell 3.9% year-on-year to around 2 billion reais.
