Mademoiselle’s audacious vision and daring spirit reinvented the world of fashion, beauty and style. From B&B, we sauntered to Louis Vuitton to toast the latest additions to its covetable Objets Nomades collection. Among them, we glimpsed the futuristic outdoor seating by Beijing rising star Frank Chou and the Merengue pouf by the Campana Brothers—not to mention a special installation by repeat collaborator Patricia Urquiola.

Mary Corse is one of the few women recognized as a part of the West Coast Light and Space movement, and her Untitled (Beams) at Art Basel is a testament to her ability to keep up with fellow members like James Turrell and Larry Bell. Like other pieces by Corse, the work features light-reflecting paint used on highways—a choice that not only adds dynamism and depth, but in this case also makes the sculptural work suitable for the outdoors. The scale of Art Basel Miami Beach can be overwhelming, especially for a first-timer like me.

“Trying to get a building built during coronavirus, it’s really heroic and hard and stressful” said Marino, who started the project at the beginning of COVID-19. “These times are not fun to build it.” Even if it wasn’t completely done — which fortunately it is — “you can’t miss this incredible December season,” he said. The partners also hold development rights for another 2 million square feet in the neighborhood, where they can build hotels, offices and residential projects. In addition to Gucci, the high-end retail district is home to Hermès, Louis Vuitton, Fendi, Dior, Cartier, Saint Laurent, Prada, Celine, Bottega Veneta and other luxury brands. The Design District has long pursued Chanel, which has since 1994 had a store at Bal Harbour Shops, owned by rival Whitman Family Development. Los Angeles’s Kayne Griffin Gallery, meanwhile, exhibited work by another undersung artist of a trending movement.

The luxury retail market has thrived in South Florida throughout the pandemic. In the Design District, Louis Vuitton is working on a larger men’s store, while Marc Jacobs, Amiri and a handful of restaurants are under construction. Chariff Realty Group broker Lyle Chariff, who is not involved in the Chanel lease but is active in the Design District, said Chanel is likely looking to set itself apart from its competitors and remain consistent with its brand.

Artworks specifically curated for the Miami space can be found throughout the boutique, a nod to Gabrielle Chanel’s influential legacy as a patron of the arts. On December 2, 2021, CHANEL unveiled a new boutique in the heart of Miami’s Design District. Showcasing the House’s Ready-to-Wear, handbags, shoes, eyewear, Fine Jewelry, and Watches, the two-floor 7,600 square-foot boutique is the ultimate CHANEL destination in Miami. One of their fastest-growing channels is their fragrance and beauty omnichannel. “It’s not coming at the expense of wholesale, which continues to grow in those market that we’re present with our boutiques,” he added. Marino explained that Hildebrandt has taken old movie films and put them on the canvas.

World-famous designer, Peter Marino, was responsible for the design which incorporated its iconic black granite slab and white stone exterior. Inside, the store the space encourages interaction with free-flowing spacious salons flooded with light. Three private fitting rooms have fully customizable environments from climate control, lighting time of day options, and surround sound audio.

Unparalleled Craftsmanship and Unforgettable Luxury

The exclusive artworks chosen by the architect -as always- reflect Gabrielle Chanel ‘s legacy as a patron of arts. Verra Lutter’s monumental camera obscure photograph “LACMA with Yang- Na 2011-Present, 1. March 8, 2017 lines one wall of the atrium, all body graphic lines and ethereal palm trees. Probably a “clin d’oeil” to the next Chanel Boutique in Beverly Hills expected to open next year.

Chanel gives me the freedom to create retail experiences that are art. It's been great to have been entrusted with the physical architectural personification of Chanel. Chanel is a client who is always looking to evolve the brand while maintaining the brand history.

“When we see a 360 view of that client, we’re able to discover that she is more important that we thought,” he said, noting that they’re able to give her more access to  experiences and services with the brand. In addition to fragrance, skin care has been an important growth driver. Watches are trending above pre-pandemic levels and are growing, he added. The store is a refined art piece in its own right — a pure, cool, cube outside and a warm light-filled oasis inside. It took a lot of time and money to carve out this much space on Rodeo. According to WWD, Chanel first bought the former Lladro building in 2013 for $100 million, then two years later paid $152 million for its own building, which it had been renting, in order to combine the two lots.

Fortunately, art advisor and historian Sharón Zoldan, founder of SZ Advisory in Los Angeles, was available to shepherd me through the zaniness. Touring a group of us through some of the fair’s more exciting minimalist holdings, Zoldan highlighted several pieces expected to fetch tidy sums—among them, an untitled work by Claudio Parmiggiani shown by Simon Lee Gallery. A member of Italy’s Arte Povera movement, Parmiggiani created the cinder-coated panel this year by capturing residual soot from a bonfire in his studio. The result is a ghostly, poetic image that speaks to themes of memory, time, and destruction. The high price-per-square-foot cost of construction can be attributed to the rising costs and limited availability of specialty materials and construction labor, as well as soft costs like architecture and design, Chariff said. As for future Chanel stores, Galantic said they’ve renovated and expanded the Wynn in Las Vegas (which opened in October) and opened CityCenter in Washington, D.C., last July.

Opening May 5, the new 30,000-square-feet store is the largest Chanel boutique in the United States and was a decade in the making. The LA Fashion District is a diverse and vibrant 107-block area home to the apparel and floral industries. Globally recognized as the West Coast hub of fashion, this neighborhood’s roots are steeped in rich culture and history, with a sense of belonging and identity going back over a century. With a distinctive cultural vibe, the LA Fashion District is a place for inspiration and exploration, and continues to evolve.

Devlin’s multisensory installation of 1,000 plants, shrubs, and trees, in addition to a monumental labyrinth, is all in homage to the 100th anniversary of the Chanel N°5 scent. On Wednesday night, all eyes turned skyward for a choreographed performance of illuminated drones, which formed sparkling outlines of perfume bottles and a silhouette of dame Coco herself. They can be freestanding in malls or outdoor community shopping areas. “It seems to create a market halo for all the points of distribution in that area,” he said. There are 45 additional locations which have been converted to a lease model, mainly at Neiman Marcus and Saks Fifth Avenue, and a few locations with Bloomingdale’s and Nordstrom. The House of CHANEL, an international company dedicated to luxury, fashion, style and image, was founded in France by Gabrielle Chanel at the beginning of the last century.

Discussing overall business, Galantic said Chanel’s business has been doing very well and is outperforming the major luxury players. He noted that Chanel has a store in Bal Harbour, Fla., “which continues to perform very strongly and tends to attract a little bit more of an international tourist.” In the current environment, Chanel’s business “is very heavily local right now. “We think it’s going to be big,” he added, declining to give sales projections. He said the white marble stairway looks like it’s rising to heaven.

I never forgot one prominent architect saying when they were asked about my work, ‘Oh yes, he does dress shops.’ It’s interesting that now these spaces are thought of as fashion boutiques,” he says, laughing. “It’s a beautiful white cube; very, very elegant with very simple windows,” said Marino, who has designed over 200 stores for Chanel, including in Miami. “It’s a beautiful white cube; very, very elegant with very simple windows,” said Marino, who has designed over 200 stores for Chanel, including in Miami. At least 10 years in the making and after three years of construction, Chanel’s stunning new Beverly Hills flagship has opened at 400 N. Clocking in at 30,000 square feet, it’s now the biggest Chanel store in the United States and more than double the size of its previous Rodeo Drive space.
