Azzedine Alaïa

Frommer's Review

Alaïa, who became the darling of French fashion in the 1970s, is the man who put body consciousness back into Paris chic. If you can't afford the current collection, try the stock shop around the corner at 18 rue de la Verrerie, 4e (tel. 01-42-72-19-19; Métro: Hotel-de-Ville), where last year's leftovers are sold at serious discounts. Both outlets sell leather trench coats, knit dresses, pleated skirts, cigarette pants, belts, purses, and fashion accessories. Open Monday to Saturday 10am to 7pm.
