even better than the Galeries Lafayette... if you like fashion and creation
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/8/04
I have been living in paris for more than two years now, and i am still amazed that nobody ever refers to some very prestigious stores in Paris, such as Paralleles in the 4th district( 30 rue des Blancs Manteaux 75004 PARIS), near by Hotel de Ville. Tourists would surely enjoy a visit at les Galeries Lafayette but if they want to buy a real piece of leather, a creation, a unique leather coat, they should explore the little streets downtown Paris. They will find the best stores, the greatest artists who are creative and innovative and like their customers to be real amateurs.
Thanks a lot
