Colette, cult Paris fashion store, to close after 20 ‘exceptional years’
A favourite of Hollywood stars and the fashion crowd, including Karl Lagerfeld – ‘they have things no one else has’, he said – mother-and-daughter boutique that’s ridden the trends since 1997 will pull down its shutters at end of this year
The cult Paris concept store Colette – a regular haunt of Hollywood stars and fashion lovers – will close its doors in December.
“All good things come to an end. After 20 exceptional years Colette is closing its doors,” the boutique’s founders, mother and daughter Colette Roussaux and Sarah Andelman, said. “Colette Roussaux has reached an age when it’s time for her to take her time, and Colette cannot exist without Colette.”
It is a regular haunt of legendary designer Karl Lagerfeld. “It’s the only shop where I go because they have things no one else has,” he said last year.
