Paris Paris, the new exhibition at Le Bon Marché Rive Gauche, combining culture, fashion and gastronomy

Want to discover Paris in a new light? Head to Le Bon Marché Rive Gauche for its latest exhibition "Paris Paris!" from August 24 to October 20, 2024. Here, we swap the metro-work-sleep for a surreal stroll under a blue sky dotted with fluffy clouds and arty Eiffel Towers. The entire store is transformed into a playground, brimming with the clichés we love so much, between legendary cafés, mouth-watering patisseries and culture galore. It's a trip full of surprises, with each floor plunging us into a real postcard Paris.

On the guest side, Sézane unveils its new children's line, Petit Sézane, in a playful pop up on the first floor, punctuated by exclusive programming throughout the exhibition.

Architecture studio A.S.L also joins the "cobblestones" of the shopping temple to open the doors of its dream apartment-workshop, complete with gallery and line of objects and furniture. And, for the occasion, he's bringing along his legendary Right Bank café, Au Rêve, which has been recreated on the 1st floor of the department store.

One floor up, we discover a hype and creative Paris, where exclusive collabs and stylish surprises are the order of the day. From the PSG capsule, Highsnobiety Not In Paris fashion essentials, CRAVAN bar's ready-to-drink cocktails that reinvent the aperitif, retro vinyl from Big Smile Bazaar, and Discothèque Fragrances scented candles, every nook and cranny is a nod to Parisian art de vivre.

And that's not all! Every Wednesday evening from September 18, 2024, Fabrice Drouelle invades Le Bon Marché with captivating tales of Parisian monuments. With his unique timbre of voice, the France Inter host will reveal the secrets of the Eiffel Tower, the Montparnasse Tower, Saint-Germain-des-Prés, Buren's Columns, the Louvre Pyramid and Notre-Dame, during 7 exceptional evenings in the company of a special guest.

What about gourmands? To mark the occasion, La Grande Épicerie and Alain Ducasse's Manufacture du Chocolat are coming to the designer Paris of Le Bon Marché with ultra-desirable exclusives. And, for the pleasure of the eye, the gastronomic clichés have even been transformed into original items (fashion accessories, candles, posters, etc.) to collect! Although the most unusual corner is undoubtedly the Mercy Murphy croquette bar!

Let's go for a stylish trip to Panam!
