The book of the Parisienne from the Roaring Twenties until today

Petite Histoire De La Mode Pour Parisiennes

So what happens when a Parisian fashionista meets her alter ego from the Twenties ?

Fashion historian Guénolée Milleret (formerly in charge of the Yves Saint-Laurent archives) and Angéline Melin, our darling illustrator, have imagined in this book a day in the company of two partners around Paris.

Breakfast at the Plaza, stroll along the Seine embankments, shop-op at Bon Marché… From the Roaring Twenties until today, the circuit of the trendy Parisienne has finally not changed that much.

We like : an original reminder of the Hours of the Parisienne, a 19th century series of engravings that already showcased the day of the Parisienne.
