The Golden Triangles and the Left Bank
Paris is a woman... and a glamorous and stylish one ! Couture houses and well-known designers will welcome you in magnificent showcases.
Should you be able to afford a luxurious shopping or only willing to check the most beautiful window displays, Paris offers three areas dedicated to stylish fashion : the historical Faubourg-Saint-Honoré (where Paul Poiret had his couture house at the beginning of the XXth century), the adjoining Palais-Royal (where upmarket shops have opened recently), and Saint-Germain-des-Prés (which turned from a literary spot to a very desirable neighbourhood). Of course, start with the legendary Chanel couture house : it hasn't moved from its original settings on rue Cambon. From there, you just have to walk on Faubourg-Saint-Honoré and rue Saint-Honoré : exclusive labels fight for your attention. The unique Colette (the first true Parisian concept-store, opened in the Nineties) is at 213 and was renovated this summer. A few steps away you will find the Palais-Royal, a luxury piazza dedicated to the very best of fashion : alongside the historical galleries, you'll find Martin Margiela , Rick Owens, Marc Jacobs, and even the very Pope of vintage Didier Ludot (beware, it's not a thrift-store, but more a museum-like boutique with fantastic displays and high prices).
If you have little time but a strong budget, you should go to Avenue Montaigne : Prada (at n°10), Dior (at n°30), Nina Ricci (at n°39) are only but a few waiting for your visit. You should also check Balenciaga (on Avenue George-V) and the Espace Courrèges (a gallery, at the border between art, fashion and design - rue François 1er).
The Left Bank has attracted its own kind of designers : don't miss the very Saint-Germain Sonia Rykiel , who incarnates the spirit of Parisian women : she invaded the neighbourhood with the complicity of her daugher Nathalie (rue des Saints-Pères, Carrefour de la Croix-Rouge). Take the time to explore the surronding streets : Sèvres, Cherche-Midi and Grenelle : from fashion designers to inventive shoemakers, there's surely something for you.
