With this collection, Timberland enters a new universe, one that is urban and active, where exploration means none other than hitting the pavement, to the rhythm of the bustling city. A collection created for city explorers, adapted to the turbulent lives of a young, urban, connected audience. This market positioning comes alongside the creation of “glyphs”, a simple, universal language that allows you to share experiences and leave your mark. On Saturdays 24th and 31st October and 7th November, the brand is hosting customisation workshops!
All within a friendly and delicious atmosphere set up around a “Candy Car”. When you spend over €150 on the Forest range, you will receive a free T-shirt! Created in 2013, Barons Papillom is a designer Parisian brand that is premium and exclusive. Offering a genuine alternative to the luxury European brands, Barons Papillom represents the fashion expression of a particular lifestyle, boldly combining innovation, style and well-being. Why should you choose Barons Papillom sneakers? // For their handmade artisan craftsmanship // For their rear strap 180° fastening system so you no longer need to waste time doing up your laces, just slip them on in a couple of seconds instead // For their exclusive designs with orange soles, representing the Place de l’Etoile and the boutique on 26, rue Vavin in the Luxembourg Garden. // Because you can finally wave goodbye to socks thanks to their calf leather sole with a cork insert mixed with purifying herbs!
Although BHV MARAIS still boasts an impressive range of tools, hardware, kitchenware and arts & crafts material, there is a totally new (and more fancy) feel to the century-old haussmannian « grand magasin », set bang in the historical centre of Paris. Womenswear here now has little to envy the gargantuan Galeries Lafayette, Printemps Haussmann or Bon Marché, with brands ranging from top-notch high-street stuff like ba&sh, Berenice, The Kooples, Sandro, Maje, Kookaï or Princesse Tam-Tam, to swanky Armani and Ted Baker apparel and understated classics such as Dhery or Gérard Darel. It’s also the only place in the country where you’ll come across Anthropologie in the flesh, and one of the lucky few Topshop and Urban Outfitters retailers of Paris. Damsels overwhelmed by the abundance of bib and tucker (and for whom les euros aren’t a problem) can even refer to a personal shopping service (approximately 90 euros an hour), which comes with tips from professional stylists and a cosy VIP lounge.
That being said, it’s with menswear that BHV MARAIS has really climbed upwards, in an effort to conquer the hearts and wallets of the fashionista gay(-friendly) Marais crowd – and to dig deep into the pockets of tourists with a taste for Parisian elegance. Not only can messieurs now spend hours skimming through their own BHV store on rue de la Verrerie (street wear, footwear, accessories, high-street fashion and a relaxing courtyard complete with sofas and nibbles), four spanking new boutiques have also recently sprouted on rue des Archives, housing Gucci, Givenchy, Fendi and Moncler. All the more reason to pop back into the main building on rue de Rivoli and scavenge for free goodies (Paris maps equipped with 10% discount cards for foreigners), stop by the Tax Refund counter (for non-Europeans), fill up on tarte au citron at Pâtisserie des rêves, swallow a sushi or two at Le Paris Tokyo, treat your hands to a pinch of Aésop moisturizer and head up to the rooftop terrace bar, to enjoy a glass of rosé afterhours and a view on Hôtel de Ville, the Seine, the Eiffel Tower and Tour Saint-Jacques.
