Dine like fashion royalty and rub shoulders with trendsetters in these couture eateries.

Just when we thought we’d seen it all… renowned fashion houses stepped up their game by introducing experiential elements to cultivate an engaging and unforgettable experience for visitors. In what way? They’ve created their own restaurants to combine fashion and food while still aiming to bring their community together, shopping and dining in a relaxing atmosphere.
Beyond a café, these restaurants were designed to reflect the lifestyle, codes and ideals of each luxury fashion brand.
From the luxurious ‘Blue Box Cafe’ by Tiffany & Co in Knightsbridge to Louis Vuitton’s flora and fauna aesthetic restaurant located at the Maison Louis Vuitton in Seoul, we take a tour of the top 5 restaurants from renowned fashion brands.

Fashion brand Louis Vuitton has unveiled its highly luxurious restaurant in a joint venture with Michelin Chef Alain Passard, the world-renowned three-star chef. The restaurant is located on the 4th floor of Louis Vuitton Maison Seoul (Korea) and features a calm and relaxing atmosphere, enhanced by a flora and fauna theme. The ephemeral space is at the same time both balanced and complemented with garden-Esque decor and an impressive glass ceiling, which has been designed by architect Frank Gehry.
The restaurant focuses on serving a vegetarian menu that emphasizes seasonality and locality.

Tiffany & Co.: Blue Box Cafe
Jewellery brand Tiffany and Co. has launched its Tiffany & Co. ‘Blue Box Cafe’, which is located in luxury Knightsbridge shopping destination Harrods. Specially created for those who want to make like Audrey Hepburn in the 1961 classic Breakfast at Tiffany’s, this stunning restaurant brings a classic, but glamorous atmosphere where the community can meet each other.

Chef Massimo Bottura follows Gucci’s culinary philosophy, embracing the culture of both Italian and Korean culture through his innovative creations of the menu.
Moreover, the Osteria Seoul restaurant blends the Italian Renaissance and the Gucci Osteria, which can be easily identified at the very first step inside the place. It is enhanced by green shades, parquet floorings, Gucci wallpapers, antique wall mirrors and stained glass doors.

Burberry: Thomas’s Cafe
Located at 5 Vigo Street, Thomas Burberry – founder of the fashion brand Burberry – has launched its Thomas’s Cafe in London. Serving afternoon tea and other British classics, the luxury fashion brand provides us with classic British taste and style at their cafe bar, also becoming an incredible space to spend some time there, meet friends, eat delicious pastries, or just read a newspaper while drinking a coffee.

Vivienne Westwood Cafe in Shanghai
Vivienne Westwood Cafe presents the classics and core elements of the brand, bringing a brand new impact to the fashion world. The café is divided into two distinct areas, each one dedicated to a specific mood that reveals the concept of the new corporate. The first area, the “photoshooting panel”, is inspired by the backstage of a fashion show, while the second area relates to a colonial-style setting, a sort of tea room of the 19th century. The identity of the new corporate dedicated to VW café expresses the authentic Britishness creating twists through the use of elements of the brand.
