L'Eclaireur

Where? The newest L'Eclaireur store is located on Rue Boissy d'Anglas, in Paris, and can also be accessed from Rue Royale. The Carre d'Or neighbourhood includes other upmarket shops such as Lanvin, Hermes and Prada. The 6500 sq ft boutique is the fifth in the L'Eclaireur chain. It focuses

on menswear and womenswear, and features a wide selection of accessories along with interior-design pieces.

Who? The owners, Martine and Armand Hadida, opened their first store in 1980 on the Avenue des Champs-Elysees. They introduced brands such as Hogan and Tod's to Paris and were among the first to create a fusion between fashion, furniture and interior design. L'Eclaireur quickly became

an internationally renowned brand and a springboard for stylists and designers. The couple constantly scout for fresh talent and new creations.

Fashion finds: the boutique boasts high-end designer labels such as Dries Van Noten, Marni, Dior Homme, Junya Watanabe, Chloe, Balenciaga and Givenchy, along with up-and-coming brands such as Golden Goose, Carol Christian Poell, Ken Scott, Thomas Wylde and many more. Shoe labels include Gianni Barbato, Bruno Bordese, Marc Jacobs and Rene Caovilla. A careful selection process is used to source the jewellery: black pearls from Robert Wan, necklaces and bracelets from Ugo Cacciatori and silver artpieces from San Lorenzo and Georg Jensen.

The vibe: the spacious boutique is welcoming yet chic. The personalised service and timeless atmosphere create an other-worldly space.
