Paris is one of the fashion capitals of the world. High fashion and luxury brand boutiques are mainly located in the Golden Triangle between Avenue Marceau, the Champs-Elysees and Avenue Montaigne. The city is known for haute couture, but you can also find dozens of small and competitively priced boutiques in each district. It's a fashionista’s paradise!
The big shopping malls include Forum des Halles and Carrousel du Louvre in the 1st district, Passage du Havre in the 9th district, Bercy Village in the 12th district, Italie2 in the 13th district, Tour Montparnasse in the 15th district and Les 4 Temps at La Défense.
Another noteworthy shopping location is Boulevard Haussmann which is home to the famous stores Galeries Lafayette and Printemps. The Le Bon Marché Rive Gauche department store in the elegant 7th district and the BHV department store in the 4th district also deserve a mention. Like La Samaritaine (currently closed for renovations), these stores first opened their doors in the 19th century and created a whole new culture of commerce.
