REPETTO


The mythical Rue de la Paix boutique is newly renovated with ubiquitous Baccarat chandeliers and large dance studio mirrors. Jeté your way to classic demure style. Brigitte Bardot skipped through Paris in her ballet pumps, and Gainsbourg’s white Repetto lace-ups were as much part of his identity as cigarettes and St Germain. Created in 1947 by Rose Repetto for her dancer son, the soft ballet shoes are perfectly Parisian and available in a rainbow of colours. Even Comme des Garçons have created a model. The dance apparel and shoes are sweetly arranged in circles and the airy, luxe-bohemian vibe will bring out the prima ballerina in even the most leaden-legged of browsers.
