Flaneur means to wander, and it’s our favourite pastime. Through palace gardens, down beautiful boulevards and tiny winding streets; a little window shopping on your way to a table on a terrace with a glass of wine is one of the true joys of life.
Creative artist
Savoir-faire is at the heart of Paris, in fashion and everything else. The pride of the artisan is not only shown in their meticulous work but is felt by those of us lucky enough to take the time to be inspired by them. Craftsmanship is not a word but a protected and valuable part of life in France, whether it’s fashion, architecture, art, or food.
Museum maven
Fashion is an important part of French culture with many incredible dedicated fashion museums in Paris. Even major museums examine how fashion, art, and culture relate to each other in their own exhibitions. Museums dedicated to photography, design objects, and fine art, often present important fashion works alongside their collections to facilitate new conversations.
History buff
The centre of fashion for over 400 years, the history of fashion is the history of Paris. From the courts of Versailles to the beautiful covered passages, Paris has been shaped by the appetites of it’s people for the best that money can buy. The centuries-old jewelry shops of the Place Vendome are also where the world of haute couture began, giving us the blueprint for fashion as we know it today.
