A Night to Remember: My Enchanting Experience at Dior's Carousel of Dreams Pop-Up
Ladies, let me take you through a magical journey I had the pleasure of experiencing last November 22nd at the opening of Dior's Les Tuileries Royal Garden, Carousel of Dreams Pop-Up at SM Mall of Asia. This wasn’t just an event; it was a walk through a dream of a Parisian winter wonderland brought to life right here in Manila. As I stepped into the space, inspired by Dior's Holiday 2024 campaign with Anya Taylor-Joy, it felt like slipping into a scene from a luxe holiday film. The entire space echoed the charm of the snow-dusted Tuileries Gardens. Imagine a crisp winter night in Paris, the air filled with a sense of wonder - this was the essence captured by the holiday pop-up.
A Starry Affair
The event was nothing short of glamorous, with some of the most beautiful faces in the Philippines, like Heart Evangelista and Catriona Gray, gracing the occasion. Camille Co-Koro, Chie Filomeno, Dolly De Leon, Liza Soberano, Pam Prinster, Verniece Enciso Dichaves, and Elisse Joson were also there in their best Dior looks. The aura of elegance was palpable, with everyone sharing in the excitement of unveiling what Dior had to offer.

Dressed head to toe in Dior, Miss Universe Catriona Gray was the epitome of the brand's elegant and timeless style, hosting the evening with a charisma that only she possesses. Her outfit, a stunning ensemble that perfectly captured the essence of the House, added an extra layer of glamour to the already dazzling event.

But the magic didn't stop there. The evening was further elevated by a mesmerizing ballet performance. Picture this: as we sipped on champagne and admired the exquisite Dior displays, a group of ballet dancers graced the floor. Their movements were poetry in motion, each step and spin a testament to the beauty and grace that Dior embodies.
Accompanying this visual feast was the Manila Philharmonic Orchestra, filling the air with lilting melodies that seemed to weave through the crowd, enveloping us in a blanket of music.

The Heart of the Pop-Up: Dior's Holiday Offerings
Inside, the pop-up was a Dior enthusiast’s paradise. From the brand’s iconic fragrances like J’adore Parfum d’eau and Miss Dior to the classic Rouge Dior lipsticks and luxurious Prestige skincare line, each product was showcased like a piece of art. I was particularly amazed by the gold and cream gift boxes designed by Pietro Ruffo - they were not just packaging, but a testament to Dior's commitment to beauty and elegance.
Why You Should Visit
If you're looking for a place to find that perfect holiday gift or just want to immerse yourself in the luxurious world of Dior, this pop-up is a must-visit. It’s not just about shopping for beauty finds; it’s about experiencing the magic and fantasy that only Dior can weave.
My evening at the Dior Beauty Les Tuileries Royal Garden, Carousel of Dreams was a memorable one. It was an embodiment of what the holiday season should be – enchanting, luxurious, and filled with wonder. For anyone in Manila from now until January 7, I highly recommend dropping by the 2nd Level of SM Mall of Asia to experience this Parisian dream for yourself. Trust me, it’s a holiday treat you won’t want to miss!
