Understated elegance at a hefty price tag has been the ethos of quiet luxury – a trend that gained traction in 2023 and was embraced by the likes of Gwyneth Paltrow and perfected by brands like The Row. But now it’s 2025, and the reliably cyclical nature of fashion means that maximalism is once again on the rise – layering and loud patterns are back in style.

The first arrondissement, near the Palais Royal and Louvre Museum, is where I always stay.
