Good deals and fashion parades in Paris in January

If you like fashion, Paris offers two major events this month. The first is the Winter Sales that begin on January 11th, following which Fashion Week brings together the biggest names in couture creation. In Paris, January is synonymous with bargains and the hottest new fashion trends.

 

Smarter shopping with the sales

If you like to find bargains, you will certainly appreciate the Paris Winter Sales. The dates of the sales in France are specified by the government, and take place for six week periods in the summer and winter. This winter the dates for bargain hunters to mark on their calendars are January 11th to February 22nd. This is the time when small shops and department stores alike offer a multitude of items at reduced prices. Want to change your look or restock your wardrobe with the latest fashion creations? The sales will help you realise your dreams without being too hard on your budget.

There’s a multitude of places where you can find retail bliss. To put you in the mood for your shopping spree, the team here at the Hotel Jacques de Molay have some ideas to offer. A short stroll from your room, you’ll find many on-trend fashion boutiques in the Marais. Continue your bargain hunting expedition in the direction of the Place du Châtelet and visit BHV, one of the major department stores of the capital. Other famous department stores such as Bon Marché or Galeries Lafayette also offer great discounts on interior decoration items, fashion and much more.

If you like luxury, head for the Champs-Élysées and Avenue Montaigne to see what the big names in fashion have to offer by way of Winter Sales deals.

 

An essential event for fashion lovers

Buying is good, even therapeutic, but discovering the new trends is also important when you’re honing your style for the coming season. Paris Fashion Week starts on January 18th with men's trends and then continues from the 22nd until the 26th with Haute Couture. Promising young designers and fashion icons alike attend this trendathon, an event recognised and acclaimed throughout the world. Launches of the latest collections, catwalk parades and the movers and shakers of the fashion world holding court at parties are all on the agenda of this unmissable week for fashionistas. Paris is known as the capital of fashion and this week will show you exactly why. Paris closes the series of international fashion weeks (New York, London, Milan) on a high.

However, we can whisper some hints in your ear. The various fashion and design schools and some of the most iconic locations in the capital, such as the Carrousel du Louvre or Grand Palais, regularly host Fashion Week. Now that you are in on the secret, enjoy!
