French champagne brand Dom Pérignon has announced a collaboration with Dutch fashion designer Iris van Herpen.

Iris designed the bottle and limited edition gift box for Dom Pérignon Vintage 2004. Based on the theme of "metamorphosis," which means change of form or transformation, the design was inspired by fossils and features dark green and gold as its base colors, exuding strength and energy.

Speed is essential to harvesting grapes at their peak ripeness. On the other hand, wine matures gradually over many years. Iris's design also expresses this duality of time, paying homage to Dom Pérignon.

A video was also produced by photographer Daniel Sannwald.

This project is part of "Dom Pérignon The Power of Creation," a project that Dom Pérignon has previously carried out in collaboration with cutting-edge creators such as Karl Lagerfeld, Jeff Koons, and David Lynch. Last July, a video work was released as a triple collaboration between contemporary artist Akira Yamaguchi and animation studio GAINAX, known for works such as Neon Genesis Evangelion.
