With some of the UK’s biggest names shutting shop, it’s clear that the retail market has hit a slump. Amid the turmoil, cult-favourite destination for all things art and fashion, Dover Street Market, stands resilient, continuing to thrive as a beacon of creativity and innovation. Known for its avant-garde selection and immersive shopping experience, Dover Street Market defies the odds, showcasing a carefully curated blend of established designers and emerging talents. In their latest move, they’re teaming up with Maison Valentino on a series of pop-ups for Alessandro Michele’s debut collection.

'It’s a partnership that underscores our Maison’s commitment to showcasing our Roman couture heritage in the contemporary landscape,' says Maison Valentino CEO Jacopo Venturini. With this collaboration, both brands aim to create a dialogue between tradition and innovation, inviting fashion enthusiasts to experience a narrative that celebrates creativity at every turn.

Appropriately named Avant Les Débuts, the collection will be artfully showcased through a series of global pop-ups with Dover Street Market in London, Ginza, New York, Singapore, Los Angeles, and Paris. The highly anticipated debut from Michele has reignited fervent excitement in the fashion community, who longed for the eclectic maximalism that saw him transform Gucci. Renowned for his character-driven approach to storytelling, the pop-ups are sure to be bold, dynamic, and immersive.

'Journeys, moments, and explorations are the best parts of all of this,' states Dover Street Market CEO Adrian Joffe. “The unexpected meetings at the crossroads of various hearts and minds are the exciting things we look forward to. I am very happy to begin this new adventure with Alessandro and the wonderful people at Valentino.'

The Maison Valentino Dover Street Market pop-up launched in London on 19 November, followed by Beijing in January and Ginza and New York in February.
