Things to do in Paris, Ile-de-France: The Best Gift & Specialty Shops

November 15, 2021 Stefan Strunk

Lingering over pain au chocolat in a sidewalk café, relaxing after a day of strolling along the Seine and marveling at icons like the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe… the perfect Paris experience combines leisure and liveliness with enough time to savor both an exquisite meal and exhibits at the Louvre. Awaken your spirit at Notre Dame, bargain hunt at the Marché aux Puces de Montreuil or for goodies at the Marché Biologique Raspail, then cap it all off with a risqué show at the Moulin Rouge.

Louis Vuitton Maison

THE NEIGHBOURHOOD Seductive, romantic and historic, Paris is an extraordinary fusion of old world energy and everything new. One of the most celebrated promenades in the world, the Champs-Elysees is as vibrant as it is fashionable. In 1998, Louis Vuitton had a glorious return to the famed avenue, opening a beautiful Maison, which, at the time, was the largest in the world. THE FACADE The dome of the Maison's Art Deco facade rises high above avenue Champs-Elysees. Listed as a Historical Monument, dating from 1914, the building has only improved with age. THE INTERIOR In a sublimation of the very notion of floors, a generous ascending spiral physically sweeps strollers up from the famous avenue to continue their journey in the universe of the brand. A 20-meter-high atrium from which some 1,900 stems of polished steel descend and diffract light recalls the sparkling domes of the famous Lalique fountains that decorate the avenue outside. Brass-plated rings interweave to generate screen walls which recreate the emblematic elements of the monogram.

We had the best time here at the flagship store. The store itself is beautiful. Our sales associate Elisee was fantastic and so helpful. She helped us find just what we were looking for. She got my husband's wallet hot stamped upstairs on the 4th floor and we were able to see Champs-Elysees from up high, it was beautiful. Our sales associate was also very helpful and knowledgeable about the VAT refund process. She even monogrammed our perfume and cologne bottles! We went in October and maybe waited in line for 5 minutes to enter the store. We had to wait a few minutes to get a sales associate to assist us, but once we did, she was with us exclusively. We were treated very nicely when we were there, they offered us champagne several times. We left with two large bags! This was honestly one of our favorite things we did in Paris!
