Object of Desire: Dom Pérignon Metamorphosis by Iris van Herpen

As a fan of fashion designer Iris van Herpen, I was extremely excited to hear of this collaboration with Dom Pérignon!

To end the Dom Pérignon Vintage 2004 era (aka First Plénitude) with a bang, the company is teaming up with Iris van Herpen for special project called "Dom Pérignon Metamorphosis by Iris van Herpen".


Iris has designed a special limited edition bottle and package called Cocoonase. Both are inspired by "the importance of time in crafting the Dom Pérignon vintages." The use of green and black represents the energy within the wine as it shifts and transforms from its First Plénitude to its Second Plénitude. The dark green colour is an iconic code for the champagne brand as it is a reflection of the soul of the wine and its intensity, depth and complexity.

Here is what Iris has to say about the creation of this special edition bottle.
“The name Cocoonase references the butterfly which softens her cocoon shell before she goes into her next stage of metamorphosis. 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.”
This limited edition bottle will be available across Canada in limited quantities.
