Roger Vivier Brings Parisian Drama to South Coast Plaza With Renovated Boutique

The Costa Mesa outpost returns with gilded interiors, mirrored walls and two exclusives linking the maison’s heritage to its Riviera-infused fall lineup.

Roger Vivier has reopened its boutique at South Coast Plaza in Costa Mesa, Calif., unveiling a renovated space that sharpens the maison’s Parisian identity.

Opened in 2012 as the brand’s debut California outpost, the store now layers Versailles parquet floors and ornate French molding with mirrored walls and gilded edges. The mix nods to Roger Vivier’s eclectic eye — blending classic decorative codes with Art Nouveau accents he admired — while silver-clad walls echo the Salle d’Argent at the Paris flagship.

The reopening comes on the heels of Roger Vivier’s move into a new Paris headquarters, an 18th-century hôtel particulier in Saint-Germain-des-Prés that unites its archive and creative studio.
