Step into an enchanting escape at the Macalister Mansion in Penang.
Trust Dior to create a dream sanctuary for fashion mavens. With the success behind their takeover at One&Only Desaru and Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, the French Maison returns with a vibrant tribute to the art de vivre (“the art of living”). Only this time, on the sun-soaked lands of Penang Island. For a limited time only, until 11 August 2025, the exclusive Dioriviera pop-up has remarkably transformed the iconic Macalister Mansion with splashes of sophistication from the Dioriviera collection.
Inside the Dioriviera Pop-Up in Penang:
As a landmark steeped in history, the Macalister Mansion is the ideal setting for Dioriviera, boasting a breathtaking colonial façade that adds elegance and charm to the entire affair.
Imagine an eternal summer. Splashed in a palette of neutral and pastel tones, the extraordinary space hosts a jungle adorned with life-sized bamboo and woven rattan sculptures. From palm trees and cacti to elephants, tigers and more, every corner reveals an element of surprise. In fact, every detail in this magical environment reflects the wildlife-inspired elements from the Toile de Jouy Sauvage and Toile de Jouy Palms prints that permeate the interior.
As you continue to set foot, go ahead and unwind on the terrace. Whether it’s under the chic parasols or plush armchairs, you’ll be transported to a luxury escape, accompanied by great conversations and sun-drenched elegance. In true Dior fashion, the furniture is also adorned with the signature Toile de Jouy motifs in a kaleidoscope of vibrant tones. Buoys whimsically shaped like animals dot the open-air space, making it a playful embodiment of the Dioriviera spirit.
While you marvel at the beauty of the picturesque environment, Dior’s fashion collection did not go unnoticed. Think relaxed yet graceful silhouettes in the form of shirt dresses, flared skirts, shorts, silk blouses and beyond–all adorned in the Toile de Jouy prints.
In the accessories department, you can uncover a line-up of beach necessities from sandals, scarves, ponchos and not forgetting, the Dior Book Tote in a symphony of colours. Basically, it’s everything you’ll need for a tropical escape.
As if the allure couldn’t get any better, indulge in a delightful experience at Café Dior and the charming Café Bike. Unwind, dress up and step inside for an adventure that captures all the enchantment of Dior.
If you’re all set to marvel at the elegance of it all, be sure to book your appointment for the Dioriviera pop-up and the Café Table here.
