Small shops in paris?

Question

I heared from a friend that there was a place in paris where there would be many shops that sell Real famous brands products ( clothes and leather goods ) with a good price !! ... but she didn't give me the name do you what am talking about ?

Answer 1

Probably your friend was speaking about the flea market, (in french "Marché aux puces")

You have to go the metro station : Porte de Clignancourt.

Don't forget you can bargain in this places.

Be carefull, there are also some dodgy people around this area.

Answer 2

There are many smaller shops with "marques dégriffées" (well known designers with the labels taken out, usually from an earlier season).  You have to know your stuff if you want get something from those places if you want something from a current designer because they usually have stuff from lesser know designers mixed in too.  I like Mouton à cinq pattes, I don't know designers too well, but they have beautiful stuff there. http://www.mouton-a-cinq-pattes.info/

Answer 3

I think the place you are describing is.. the entire city of Paris. You won't find malls but small shops with name brands everywhere. Be adventurous and you will find exactly what you are looking for.
