Dom Pérignon teamed up with couturier Iris van Herpen, to celebrate the metamorphosis of its champagne. Throughout its history, the Dom Pérignon champagne has been intricately linked to the concept of metamorphosis, signifying the closure of one period and the birth of another, and a powerful symbol of evolution, transformation and renaissance. With Dom Pérignon Metamorphosis by Iris van Herpen, the champagne house marks the end of Dom Pérignon Vintage 2004 and its change from First to Second Plénitude.
Dom Pérignon also revealed Cocoonase, an über-premium, made-to-order piece of art designed by Iris van Herpen and an exclusive series of gift boxes by the fashion designer for Dom Pérignon Vintage 2004.
“The name Cocoonase references the butterfly which softens her cocoon shell before she goes into her next stage of metamorphosis,” said Iris van Herpen. “This piece of art houses Dom Pérignon Vintage 2004, symbolically nestled inside of the cocoon structure, and its fine ribs and lines represent a one-way passage out. Cocoonase acts as a shield that protects the Dom Pérignon bottle as it prepares for its metamorphosis.”
Renowned creative visionary Daniel Sannwald compliments Iris van Herpen’s work with a visual film exploring Metamorphosis.
