Galeries de la Fayette; Breathtaking Parisian Fashion Center (I Love Paris Series 10)

Galeries de la Fayette 
Breathtaking Parisian Fashion Center
I Love Paris Series 10

While the Champs-Elysées is one of the most
famous streets in the world for fashion shopping,


…but shopping in this ‘au courant’ upscale
district could be intimidating for impoverished
tourists from third world country like my family.


Galeries de la Fayette is an awesome alternative
for the masses who are traveling on a budget and
don’t have enough shopping money to spend.


Located in the ninth arrondissement close to the Opéra,

 

...it has become an essential fashion destination in Paris.


Cousins Théophile Bader and Alphonse Kahn opened
the first Galeries Lafayette in 1894, it now carries more
than two- thousand brands of men and women’s fashion
wears, beauty products and assortment of homeware.


My teenage daughter was looking for a backpack
and she initially queued at the Channel store,


…but finally settled at the Louis Vuitton store,



…where the queue was kilometric that
we had to take turns falling in line,




…and the store served snacks as they assisted
my wife and daughter choosing her backpack.


Galeries Lafayette one of the world’s best known department 
stores and has become synonymous to luxury shopping 
that offers premium brands at affordable prices.
