Inside Tiffany & Co.’s South Coast Plaza Grand Opening: The Jewelry, the Dinner & the Guest List
Tiffany & Co. celebrated its South Coast Plaza grand opening with a Daniel Boulud dinner, a performance by Ashe, and notable guests.
Tiffany & Co. doesn’t open a store quietly, and the grand opening of its new South Coast Plaza location on September 23rd proved it. The Orange County celebration brought together California’s natural landscape, a Daniel Boulud dinner, a performance by Ashe, and a guest list dressed in some of the most covetable jewelry in the current Tiffany lineup — all inside a space transformed into a floral environment inspired by the wild poppies of the California coast, a direct nod to the natural world that defined the work of legendary Tiffany designer Jean Schlumberger.

It was the kind of evening where the jewelry and the setting genuinely matched each other — and the room made that case effortlessly.
