If you needed another reason to visit the South of France, CHANEL may have just given you one. This summer, CHANEL set up its ephemeral bouique at the private mansion La Mistralée in Saint-Tropez, showcasing Ready-to-Wear, accessories, watches, and fine jewellery collections, as well as fragrances, skincare, and beauty.
Taking inspiration from the iconic CHANEL handbag interiors, the floors of the mansion are painted burgundy red, while the tiles around the pool remind visitors of the signature CHANEL quilting. A huge white and gold camellia can be found adorning the sunroom’s ceiling, while floral wallpaper adds a splash of colour to various rooms of the mansion.
The nearby pool house, stocked with beauty, fragrances, and beachwear, overlooks the the luxurious pool with an oversized floating camellia. It looks so tempting, but I’d imagine that taking a dip would be frowned upon.
So if you find yourself in sunny Saint-Tropez this summer, make sure to do some shopping at the ephemeral boutique, snap a photo of the floating camellia, and relax poolside surrounded by everything CHANEL…The boutique will be open until October 2015, so there’s still time!
