Winter sales in Paris, “les soldes” were declared officially started on Tuesday, January the 8th at the 6th floor of the renowned store “Printemps de la Mode”.
“Soldes by Paris” is meant to transform the French capital in a shopping must for Europe, just like London is.
The opening was supervised by Inès de la Fressange, Chanel muse and Jean Paul Gaultier consultant designer.
The Soldes by Paris operation counts:
• 209 euros the daily spent for the average tourist in Paris
• 69 days of sales per year
• 8 “grand magasins” – big stores in Paris
• 6.800 fashion stores concerned by the sales
• 16.000 retails concerned by the Paris sales
• 62.000 proximity retails in Paris
If you’re in Paris, by any chance, within January 9-20 for the sales period, then you’ll find these shopping circuits very useful!
The clock is ticking for the countdown it’s already at its middle point. We’ll exchange opinions on this famous operation’s impact after January 20th since I’ll be taking the trip to see the “soldes” in motion myself.
