Perrier-Jouët pursues its collaboration with designers with the young London artist Claire Coles, in creating three bespoke embroidered designs to echo both the House style and the individual personality of its Grand Brut, Rosé and prestigious Belle Epoque cuvees.

Using Nature as a source of inspiration, the artist gave her own interpretation of Perrier-Jouët's Art Nouveau philosophy with a Je ne sais quoi touch of haute-couture design, which was then applied to a limited number of bottles.
