Mens Clothes

Jo.

On a small street in Montmartre, this boutique with its retro décor (tiled floor, clean white walls, metal shelves and lamps) offers a range of quality clothing for men from brands such as Emile Lafaurie, Dr Denim and Lee. Terracotta coloured jeans (€70), mustard pullovers (€70 euros), ebony suit jackets (€200): clothing here is rich in colour, made from high quality materials, and cut to the millimetre. Don’t come expecting an endless selection though, owners Stéphane and Marie-José have taken the minimalist approach: a handful of ties here, half a dozen socks there. But you’ll still leave dressed elegantly from head to toe.

Arty Dandy

'Dandyism is the last spark of heroism amid decadence,' said Baudelaire. Taking this as its motto, Arty Dandy is a concept shop that embraces the surreal, the tongue-in-cheek and the poetic - an R.MUTT sticker to create your own Duchampian loo, and the 'Karl who?' bag (which KL himself has been carrying) are instant pleasers. More sublime offerings include Jaime Hayon's 'Lover' figurines and Sebastien Le Gal watercolours. There are also Alchimie anti-ageing products.
