For the presentation of the Dior Cruise 2024 collection, inspired by Mexico, Balbosté designed and operated an ephemeral café within the prestigious Villa Dior, set in the historic and preserved surroundings of the Hôtel de la Salle. A bespoke menu was created for breakfast, lunch, tea time, and cocktails, offering a refined interpretation of Mexican gastronomy infused with the elegance and sophistication that define the Dior brand. The café provided an immersive experience, blending culinary artistry with the cultural inspirations behind the collection.
As part of this project, Balbosté created an exclusive range of 3D-printed chocolates inspired by traditional Mexican pottery designs and patterns. These meticulously crafted chocolate pieces featured intricate motifs reflecting the heritage of Mexican artistry while maintaining a refined aesthetic in line with Dior’s elegance. Each guest visiting the private fitting salons was presented with these delicate creations, enhancing their experience with a luxurious and tasteful homage to the cultural inspirations behind the collection.
