For the Autumn-Winter 2020–2021 Haute Couture collection, Atomic Digital Design worked with the Maison Dior to turn its invitations into an immersive experience.

Upon scanning the famous facade with your smartphone, the house literally opens its doors to unveil one of the miniature pieces of the collection: the evening coat full of pleats and ruffles.
