My GF and I (shopping for the GF) have been coming to this particular Heroines boutique for several…read moreyears and it never disappoints. The designer is local and so are the fabrics. 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...

Wow! What a fantastic shopping experience. The clothes are designed by the owner in Paris and made…read morein London. Dresses, shoes and coats inspired by 1950's vintage style with a modern edge, gorgeous construction and design. Nina helped choose some things that were wonderfully complementary to my body shape stating "it's not about size, but shape". As I'm a few sizes larger in France then the US, this was very helpful to hear. She was a great sales person, spoke beautiful English and was a lot of fun. I adore the jacket I bought and am actually looking forward to colder weather so I can wear it and let the complements roll in.

This place was a shopaholic's dream! There was an incredible selection of luxury designers, with…read morethe exception of Louis Vuitton. The staff was friendly, and we had such a great time exploring everything they had to offer. The deals were pretty decent, and the duty-free option for visitors living outside of France was definitely an added bonus. Shopping here ended up being one of my favorite parts of our Paris trip. If you love luxury shopping, this is definitely worth checking out!

If you are staying in Paris City, would not recommend trekking out to the outlets. Firstly, if you…read moreare looking for good deals on the luxury designer goods, the inventory and options are quite limited. Secondly, several of the stores and how they are run and how the associates act are deplorable and really ruin your impression on those brands (I.e. YSL, Gucci, Burberry). The lines you see are really fake lines because of how slow they are moving in the stores. Check out at Gucci, took 45 minutes due to incompetence and slowness - unbelievable. Prada and Chloe were some of the only pleasant experiences. Just not worth it being almost an hour drive/metro from Paris.
