After making waves in Dubai, Paris, and Saint-Tropez, Gigi Rigolatto is switching things up and heading to the Aegean. Touching down at the Mandarin Oriental, Bodrum this June, the iconic summer pop-up is bringing its signature vibe — think sun-soaked lunches, golden hour cocktails, and effortlessly chic energy — to Turkey’s most glamorous stretch of coast. Expect the same Gigi magic, now with sweeping views of the Turkish Riviera. It’s a seasonal debut for now, but a permanent spot is already on the horizon for 2026. If you’re in Bodrum this summer, make sure Gigi at Mandarin Oriental is on your must-visit list.
The Settings
Picture this: a breezy outdoor terrace with 140 seats and stunning sea views that practically shout summer vibes. Gigi slides effortlessly into the Mandarin Oriental’s relaxed luxury, nestled in the lush hotel gardens just steps away from a private beach.
What’s on the table
Everyone’s favourite: Rich Italian cuisine. Perfect for long, lazy afternoons.
The Bellini Bar is a vibe
The Bellini steals the spotlight. And the bar? That’s where Gigi’s soul lives — the heartbeat of the scene, pulsing between laid-back aperitivo vibes and all-out dance floor energy.
The boutique
On-site, you’ll find Gigi’s signature edit — think beachwear, accessories, beauty, and design pieces that totally vibe with their style. The shop’s got a chill, laid-back feel, more like stepping into a stylish summer apartment than a typical store.
The design
Franco-Mexican architect Hugo Toro crafts every Gigi spot like a personal sanctuary, drawing inspiration from Italy’s deep-rooted history. The design blends sleek Italian elegance with subtle French lifestyle vibes. While each location keeps key signature elements, the style flexes thoughtfully to fit its unique backdrop.
