SHOPPING
Lostmarc’h
In common with capitals the world over, Paris is awash with bijou boutiques offering the latest great smells. But this one somehow stands sweetly apart from the stampede to sell smell.
Le Coq Sportif
This most Gallic of French sports outfitters has just opened a new space in the buzzing Montorgueil quartier. Truly deserves a ringing cock-a-doodle-doo - or cocorico as the French would crow.
Anthony Peto
This hatter admits a madness for headgear but this is more sober-smart with an edge than madcap. For a man about town who prefers a groovy cool to too cool for school.
Balenciaga Homme
As far as style statements go, few come more sophisticated and intelligent as those issued by the House of Balenciaga and their first men’s retail space reflects just that. Bring on Boylenciaga.
Ralph Lauren
The high priest of preppy has installed a swank new store in the heart of the Left Bank. And as ever at Ralph Lauren, it’s the same answer to the question ‘to be or not to be’. Let’s be equestrian!
Hugo & Victor
The display cases echo Tiffany's – and here you really could have breakfast, albeit takeout.
A Parisian Piece of Cake
The world of cakes is getting a major make over in Paris with the opening of a number of high style high calorie patisseries.
No Good Store
Partake in some bobo watching at this multi-purpose space run by the collective of artists, designers and other creatives who made SoPi hip.
Merci
With all the profits going to children’s charities, this beautiful multi-purpose loft space aims to lessen the guilt of buying yet another unneeded APC jumper.
ARTYDANDY
It might be as farty as it’s dandy, but the small shop houses a surprisingly rich collection of delectable objects that aren’t insurmountably expensive.
LE66
Aloof and pretentious? Sure. But also unmistakably Parisian and part of the reason you came to visit in the first place.
Set Galerie
Even if you aren’t looking to buy anything, then it’s always interesting to stop by Stéphane’s colourful shop-showroom.
L'Eclaireur Homme
The branch of the L’Eclaireur chain totally dedicated to men, it continues the store’s ethos of promoting young designers alongside high-end, edgy names.
Kitsuné Shop
Music scenesters turned fashion aficionados serve up casualwear in an old-school store.
Mistigriff
The stores may look very budget Oxfam and feel like trailer park territory, but the clothes are genuine alright and the discounts attractive enough.
Surface to Air
The universe of Surface to Air stretches much further than print T-shirts and their Paris digs reflect this creative lab mentality.
