Printemps

This fashion cathedral offers a distinctive touch of luxury and personal service.

Le Printemps (« Springtime ») is one of the jewels of French department stores. From the very beginning, the flagship store has been a must, and decades after decades its offer has evolved with French taste : it was for example the very first shop offering a ready-to-wear menswear line in 1930.

Nowadays, its colourful dome dominates a shopping extravaganza of luxury goods (think Chloé, Dolce & Gabbana, Marc Jacobs…), and if you don’t know how to make up your mind among the extensive offer, a personal shopper can help (by appointment).

Apart from the main building (Printemps de la Mode), you’ll find a second one dedicated to Beauty and Home, and a last one for menswear. If you feel thirsty, the Déli-Cieux (a play on word with “Cieux”, sky) or the cosy Ladurée tea-room, will welcome you for a deserved rest.
