How do the French women do it? They always look so great, so well put together, so stylish. Actually, some of them are shopping at stores that sell “dégriffés” (clothing with labels cut out), “stock” (overstock) and “depôt-vente” (resale).
The Rue St. Placide in the 7th arrondissement (Métro: Sèvres Babylone) is a great street for finding these kinds of shops. Another great street is rue d’Alésia in the 14th arrondissement.
Here are a few places you might find useful for your hunt for the perfect “couture”:
- La Clef des Marques
- Le Mouton à Cinq Pattes
- Réciproque
