Do any designers for youths have warehouses where one can buy inexpensive sample clothing or shoes?

Question

Does anyone happen to know where in Paris I can find inexpensive designer clothes and shoes in children and youth sizes? I know the designers usually have out of the place stores that sell their samples. Where can I find these in Paris? And, has anyone ever been to the outlet mall outside of Paris? If so, do they carry children and youth clothing? Thanks

Answer 1

The usine centers are great and there are a few in the outskirts of Paris (St Denis, Herblay, etc.).  The one at Marne the Vallée does not have that much kid stuff and it remains expensive, by my personal definition.

As for creator designs, there is a great place in Les Halles, which you will have to go looking for, but it is a combination of 3 boutiques where young unknowns can sell their wares... I think it is on the second level behind the FNAC (les Halles have pretty good store directories, so you should be able to find it). I didn't look at the prices, so I can't guarantee that it is inexpensive, but they seem to have really original, gorgeous things.

Hope to have been of help.

i don't know if this will exactly reply to your answer but i know "Usines Center" (check with a search engine to get the localisation) where clothes are sold a little more directly from factory than anywhere else .
