Dior Beauty Celebrates Its Latest Fragrance With an Intimate, Star-Studded Dinner

Last night in the heart of the Meatpacking District, at the intersection of Gansevoort Street, Little West 12th Street, and Ninth Avenue, Dior Beauty unveiled its Miss Dior fragrance and Millefiori Garden pop-up. A retail activation celebrating the new Miss Dior Eau de Parfum, the four-day experience offers shoppable beauty stations, a private Miss Dior café for branded lattes, and an immersive flower installation designed by fantastical florist Lewis Miller.

To fete the dreamy pop-up, Dior Beauty hosted an intimate alfresco dinner across the street at Pastis, with chic attendees including Cara Delevingne, Leyna Bloom, Hailee Steinfeld, and Dan Levy. Ahead of tonight’s Met gala, there was vibrant energy that brimmed throughout the French bistro’s patio as guests mingled, sipped glasses of Moët & Chandon, and enjoyed their filet au poivre and frites, among other French brasserie fare. Before dessert was served, there was a surprise appearance from singer-songwriter Lolo Zouaï, who dazzled partygoers with her first performance in more than a year and a half, a stripped-down set led by the title track from her acclaimed album, High Highs to Low Lows.

A glamorous gathering of friends new and old, the evening served as a perfect conclusion to a New York Fashion Week unlike any other—and, of course, a fitting precursor to today’s Met gala festivities.
