UBS House of Craft x Dior Launches Exciting Exhibition in Singapore

The highly anticipated exhibition, UBS House of Craft x Dior, is set to make its Asian debut in Singapore from November 21 to 23, 2025. Following its successful premiere in New York earlier this year, this expanded showcase celebrates eight decades of the House of Dior’s legacy and craftsmanship. Taking place at the New Art Museum Singapore, part of the Whitestone Gallery, the exhibition aims to highlight the defining eras of Dior through the works of its founder, Christian Dior, and the six artistic directors who have shaped its history.

The exhibition features creations from notable designers including Yves Saint Laurent, Marc Bohan, Gianfranco Ferré, John Galliano, Raf Simons, and Maria Grazia Chiuri, along with a special tribute to Kim Jones. With the theme of timeless elegance and innovative spirit, the exhibition showcases a groundbreaking photographic display by acclaimed artist Brigitte Niedermair, a long-time collaborator with Dior.

Curated by Carine Roitfeld, the former editor-in-chief of Vogue Paris, the exhibition draws inspiration from Dior’s extensive archives. It highlights not only the brand’s iconic creations but also emphasizes the exceptional craftsmanship and visionary creativity that have defined its success.

Jin Yee Young, Co-Head of UBS Global Wealth Management Asia Pacific and Country Head of UBS Singapore, expressed enthusiasm for the event, stating, “UBS is delighted to present the Asia debut of the expanded UBS House of Craft x Dior exhibition in Singapore.” Young noted that the partnership celebrates the rich heritage of both Dior and UBS, showcasing the precision and artistry inherent in their crafts.

Olivier Bialobos, Deputy Managing Director in charge of Global Communication & Image at Christian Dior Couture, further elaborated on the significance of the collaboration. He stated, “This alliance is a celebration of excellence, haute couture elegance, and the exceptional savoir-faire deployed by Dior since the triumph of the New Look in 1947.” Bialobos highlighted that Roitfeld’s passion, combined with Niedermair’s talent, embodies the ongoing dialogue between Dior’s past and present, reflecting the brand’s continual reinvention within a dynamic cultural landscape.

In addition to the exhibition, attendees will have the opportunity to engage in talks, panels, workshops, and craft demonstrations. These events will allow participants to interact with masters of craft and deepen their understanding of couture artistry. More information about these activities will be announced closer to the event.
