MENAGE A TROIS


Opened by 3 friends who spawned their creative collaboration when working together at the Hôtel Amour, our favourite Parisian hang-out, this new boutique combines a love for vintage, kitsch design and fashion. The trio have put together a killer cocktail of a boutique on an off-kilter street in the 9th arrondissement. Spiralled 70s carpet, black walls, leather surrounds, porcelain cheetahs and good/bad-taste mirror art give an idea of the fashion sense here. Lots of florals, heavily glitzed bat-wing tops, bold coloured leather, Argentinian strings, major sunglasses worthy of Nicole Richie and wild prints. And some of the clothes are for hire. A fun address to keep checking in with. The girls want to encourage a chatty, open vibe and we spotted one rather un-vintage boyfriend who didn’t look unhappy sitting on the retro sofa stroking the boutique dog.
