La Païva 🤩

This incredible second empire mansion on the Champs Élysées is almost hidden from the street and is one of the only mansions left on the avenue. Built with the money from her third husband the courtesan turned countess, La Païva hosted many of society’s most influential people including Delacroix, Zola, and Flaubert. The Hôtel particulier has some of the most ostentatious decor imaginable, including this staircase carved from a single piece of yellow onyx and a bathtub (not pictured) with a third tap for champagne. It’s now a private club and not open to the public except for with special friends who are kind enough to extend an invitation for a drink (not in the bathtub) 🥂 🍾

See it for yourself May 10-17 with my small group tour focused on fashion history and haute couture craftsmanship. A week of special access and privatized visits of incredible fashion museums, intimate ateliers, and so much more.

RIP Marc Bohan 💐

Dior has been creating haute couture for 75 years now, 30 of which were designed by couturier, Marc Bohan. He understood Christian Dior’s vision for the brand as he also came up in HC ateliers, namely, Robert Piguet, and Jean Patou. Due to his desire for privacy ( like Dior himself) he is the one you’re probably least likely to know. He developed a direct line to Hollywood and dressed many celebrities including Elizabeth Taylor, and his long-time friend, Grace Kelly. His era was sandwiched between Yves Saint Laurent and Gianfranco Ferre and encompassed the entire 1960s, 70s, and 80s which is a huge part of fashion history.

I was really pleased to discover a room dedicated to him on this last visit in May to the ; swipe to the end to see his work on display.

If you’d like to learn more about the history of Dior, I’ve developed a great day tour that includes the Dior museum and shopping along the glamorous Avenue Montaigne ✨

🎉 Happy Birthday, Yves Saint Laurent! 🎂✨

Born in Algeria he was designing dresses for his paper dolls at the age of 14, won the Woolmark prize at age 18, took over from Christian Dior at 21, and opened his own house when he was just 26. He went on to create a wealth of iconic collections and pieces that still reverberate in the halls of contemporary fashion.

Here are three of his most iconic creations to tide us over until the tour this October!

1. Le Smoking Tuxedo (1966): A groundbreaking and revolutionary design that challenged conventional norms, the concept of the women's tuxedo became a favourite of celebs like Liza Minnelli, Françoise Hardy and Bianca Jagger.

2. Mondrian Collection (1965): A masterful fusion of art and fashion, Yves Saint Laurent's iconic Mondrian dresses took inspiration from Piet Mondrian's abstract compositions, and was the first of many collections inspired by artists like Claude Lalanne, Picasso, Georges Braque and Tom Wesselmann.

3. The Trench Coat (1962): Yves Saint Laurent elevated the classic utilitarian trench coat to new heights of sophistication and elegance. His reimagined version featured sharp tailoring, a cinched waist, luxurious haute couture fabrics, and was featured in the film, Belle de Jour, starring Catherine Deneuve.

He worked until 2002 when he and his partner Pierre Berger created the foundation that houses the , and he died when he was just 71.

Have you even been to the Promenade Plantée?🍃🌹🌳

Built in 1993 on an old railway line, it was not especially popular among Parisians. Much like the Eiffel Tower and the Louvre pyramid it’s now a cherished space to enjoy a walk. With interesting views and beautiful plantings, it became the blueprint for other reclamations like the High Line in NYC. Beneath the coulée vert as is also known are many shops under the arches supporting the line featuring many unique artisans and craftspeople.

There’s only 3 weeks left to get your deposits in for the fall fashion tour and see the Promenade Plantée for yourself! Deposits are due July 15 for travel Oct 6-13! It’s going to be a great week so don’t miss it!

A beautiful day with a privileged visit to to see their beautiful historic salons at the Place Vendome! 👸🏻💎👑

The history of fashion begins at the Place Vendome where Charles Worth began as the first couturier and its since become the most prestigious location for the craftsmanship of Haute Joaillerie. Maison Chaumet was the first jeweller to open on the place and it was amazing to be able to see some of the treasures from their archives.

A rainy day in Montmartre! ☔️

Despite the weather it was a sweet day in one of the cutest areas of town. We began at the beautiful Parisian cemetery in the neighbourhood, then walked to the basilica Sacre Coeur, around the neighbourhood, and finally over to the garment district to visit my fave shop and the massive fabric shops around. All in all a really fun day exploring!

Day 3 was a beautiful day at the flea market! Check my highlights for more!

While the other activities on the tour often change based on availability, we always go to the flea market. This is not only the biggest flea market in Europe, but also where the term originated with the rag and bone men who sold their wares in this exact spot.

It was a day for the Tour Eiffel! 😍

It was a busy day at the tower but was a lovely day despite the rain warnings. The last time I went up was probably 2016 so it was interesting to see how much has changed. The one thing that never changes though is the view! I took enough photos to tide me over for another 7 years 📸

One of the days on the tour is a street market shop for a picnic with a view of the tower! I always leave some time for the guests that want to go up. Book those tickets early though or you will have to buy a ticket to walk up the 674 stairs to the 2nd floor! 😬

Did you know Paris has two garment districts?

In Montmartre you’ll find the shops that are open to the public including a couple of 5 story building full of materials. The one in the Sentier area is more for wholesalers but they’ve been known to open their doors to regular folk who know how to ask!

Follow along to see all the fabric notions and specialty stores I’m visiting this next month in Paris! And make sure you’re subscribed to my newsletter to get a special discount on the next tour coming for this October!

Save this location for your next trip to Paris!

This sculpture, titled “Tulips”, was a gift to the city of Paris from the artist Jeff Koons as a memorial to the terror attacks in 2015. Some Parisians scoffed at the “gift”, as it came with a hefty price tag for installation, so money was raised by private donors to realize the funds needed. The location was another point of contention as the spot Koons had specified for it at the Palais de Tokyo was seen as opportunistic by some. As it turned out the plaza concrete wasn’t strong enough to support the sculpture and in 2019 it was finally unveiled in the garden of the Petit Palais near the American Embassy.

Make sure you’re following in stories for all the Paris you can stand starting on Monday! Can’t wait to get back!

Last day to register for travel to Paris May 12-19! 🇫🇷✈️🥂

You might think you aren’t a “group travel” kind of person but there so many advantages!

1. When the cost is split between the group it means we can afford to do extra-special visits and private guided tours!

2. You don’t have to do the planning, just get to Paris and I’ll do the rest! I’ve spent years developing an incredible week of beautiful discoveries.

3. You’ll get access to the ateliers and artisans I have spent years building relationships with.

4. You still get plenty of free time to discover restaurants and neighbourhoods with your evenings to yourself.

5. You get access to my knowledge of restaurants, events, shops, and neighbourhoods to explore on your time off.

6. You’ll make new friends! My tour attracts like-minded people and we always have a great time with each other!

7. You get guided tours and specially selected experiences every single day without spending months of planning.

If you miss the deadline today for travel this fall, don’t fret! I’ll have another Paris fashion experience coming next October which gives you plenty of time to get yourself ready.

All the information on what we get up to on the tour is on my website (link in bio) including FAQs, testimonials and a sample itinerary. I always strive to bring you the best of Paris and I hope you can travel with me soon! 🧳👋🍾
