Shopping in Paris? ?

Question

I've always found Paris to be an intriguing place, and I was thinking of going there this winter with my dad. But besides simply admiring the sights, I *obviously* want to do some shopping. Any boutiques you'd recommend?

Answer 1

Truly trend-setting fashions may be seen in the shops on Rue Etienne Marcel and Place des Victoires bordering the 1st and 2nd arrondissements.

Some of the better-known emporiums of Haute Couture and jewelry include: Cartier (8th), Celine (8th), Chanel (1st & 8th), Chaumet, Christian Dior (8th), Christian Lacroix (8th), Piaget, Yves Saint Laurent (16th), and Van Cleef & Arpels (8th).

For something a bit more mainstream just head to the Boulevard Haussmann in the 9th where Printemps and Galeries Lafayette are right next door to each other.
