There's a reason why everyone raves about this place for vintage designer shopping in Paris. Of all…read morethe vintage/consignment shops I stopped at, Thanx God I'm a VIP was the best. Everything is organized by style and texture, then sorted by color, making it easy to navigate while also being visually appealing. Their selection of coats and sweaters is phenomenal, and they take excellent care of their items. For instance, all the sweaters are neatly folded, which I appreciate since hanging them can stretch them out and leave the shoulders misshapen. The store itself is pretty big, and just down the street is the men's store. There are so many great pieces, including a fantastic selection of Max Mara camel coats, silk Hermès scarves (so many!) and vintage bags and accessories. The selection is so large and there's many unique, well-curated pieces, you'll be sure to find something. The staff is incredibly friendly and encourages you to try on anything that catches your eye in the fitting rooms.

I personally scored two men's Hermes pieces myself. A1 service Rae from Atlanta!

I was so excited to find a vintage store in the Marais. I love vintage, love the Marais, and wanted…read moreto spend my money there. I walked in and happily began looking at the messy, wonderful, high pile of leather purses in the window display. A man who worked there started yelling at me extensively in French. I politely told him I don't speak French and he yelled "don't touch". I was confused and asked how I might decide if I wanted it. The man ignored me but and began organizing the beautiful messy pile. Aha! Lovely things, nasty man, tight conditions with only one small mirror in an inconvenient spot. Don't bother!

The day before I…read morewent to the kilo shop and associated vintage shops in that area by Hotel de Ville and they were all swarming with tweeny European girls foaming at the mouth for moderately priced Parisian threads. It was a very overwhelming shopping experience for me and left disheartened on my finding any gems during my stay. So! I walk by this place and decide to stop in. Great clothes, especially military wear, seems to be a lot of European threads, and jeans for 25 euro. Most importantly the atmosphere was very relaxed and lowkey. One guy quietly oversaw the place and one or two other couples came in. I ended up getting a nice over coat and a (French?) pilot suit that I wore out to a Concrete party and received many compliments on. I'm hesitant with writing this review, especially in English, I hope the next time I come it's not a barren store with bottom of the barrel pickings due to teens attacking the stock. Despite this, I was happy my shopping experience was saved and hope a few more travelers wander upon the place to give it business and find similar shopping pleasure.

We were told that all the clothing is made in France and England. I have no reason to suspect otherwise. Assuming this is true then Heroines is a bargain! Perhaps it is my Bronx skepticism kicking-in. The manager/salesperson was outstanding but I can't remember her name. I don't want to say how much we spent, but let's just say we greatly surpassed the US incoming custom's exemption. I guess we'll just need to donate the excess prior to re-entering the homeland...

Nina helped choose some things that were wonderfully complementary to my body shape stating "it's not about size, but shape".

Their clothes range from the decades 50's to 90's, so remember to try on whatever it is you have your eye on because there's a wide variety of cuts and styles. The staff here is also very friendly. And by the staff I guess I mean the one girl I've seen there -- a sweet 20 something with short brown hair. Always smiley and ready to help you zip up a dress you need help with. The only downsides: On the expensive side, there's only one dressing room, and the hangers the clothes are kept on are heavy, loud, and a bit hard to manage.

There is no other form of shopping that gives me as much of a high as vintage clothing shopping…read more It's my addiction. So when I spot a new vintage store there is virtually nothing anyone can do to stop me from going inside and perusing the racks. Nothing. Come hell or high water I am going in, taking notes and plotting my purchases. Which is exactly what happened when this adorable new shop full of fabulous vintage from the 20s - 90s opened near the Canal Saint Martin. The problem at the time was that I was seriously pregnant and the thought of trying on anything with a waist was unfathomable. So I stared at the shoes but then remembered that my feel were swollen too, so I just complimented the women who owned the place for having such a great shop and promised to come back when I had my figure back. Only problem is that day hasn't really come yet, so everytime I pass in front of the shop I stare longingly at the items in the window, like the insanely beautiful pink Sonia Rykiel sweater dress with the still-too-small waist that I spotted just recently. I still have some work to do before I can make any serious purchases here, but that doesn't mean that you shouldn't stop by and take advantage of the excellent selection and affordable prices.

According to some workers I spoke with, they gather stuff in on Monday, sort and price on Tuesday, and start selling on Wednesday, which is the best day to go there. The goods are higher quality than the local Emmaus stores and the store itself is attractive. This is definitely worth the schlep!
