Best Vintage & Thrift Stores in Paris

Paris is unrivaled in vintage, says Paris-based vintage seller Kelly Miller. There is something for every budget, taste, and style. The number of stores can be overwhelming, and navigating different neighborhoods and fluctuating opening hours does not make it any easier.

We visited Paris in the early fall, asked around, walked a lot, and these are some of the best stores we found.

The more time you spend in the city, the more you will find: thrift stores further away from the city center, flea markets, hidden showrooms, and pop ups.

Department Stores

The iconic Paris department stores Printemps and Lafayette both have dedicated vintage and secondhand departments and we love it! (Hello, Saks, Bergdorf, Macy’s?!)

Printemps’ vintage selection is more curated and high-end, whereas Lafayette’s vintage department, called Re-Store, is packed, busy, and seems to cater to a younger audience.

Printemps’ vintage department can be found on the 7th floor, underneath a beautiful glass skylight dome.

The vintage department is divided into two sections: One part of the floor is a mix of more affordable vintage, reworked fashion, and other sustainable labels, and has a rotating set of vendors. On our visit, we spotted designer vintage from Jeannette Vintage, menswear-focused Demain Retro, and 60s-70s-inspired Pristini.

The other section is full of rare high-end designer vintage, curated by Vestiaire Collective’s former head of vintage, Marie Blanchet. Although the prices are relatively high, we recommend taking a tour here. The collection is like French fashion history condensed: everything from iconic 70s YSL blouses to Thierry Mugler blazers, JPG denim, and modern Balenciaga. Not forgetting bags, shoes, and jewelry.

Galeries Lafayette’s vintage is on the 3rd floor and can be tricky to find – just head towards the west end of the building and look for the black-and-white signs saying Re-Store.

You can find multiple sellers here from more high-end Personal Seller to wildly popular, more affordable Crush On. Crush On is well-known in France as they also have their online store and they organize vintage markets in Middle European countries.

If you are on the hunt for vintage Courreges vinyl jackets or knitwear, check out this store! We loved the pastel-colored interior and fresh curation on classic French vintage items by the owner Didier Barroso.

This name pops us everywhere when you ask for vintage shopping recommendations in Paris. And we are not surprised.

Thanx God I’m VIP is actually not one, but three stores in a row: women’s, men’s, and Bazar which is only open on Saturdays and sells home decor and vintage clothing priced from 10 to 50 euros.

Alaïa, Burberry’s, Chanel, Hermès, Lanvin, YSL.. The color-coordinated racks, helpful staff, and organized store layout won’t disappoint you. No wonder the store is also designer teams’ favorite.

Not surprisingly, y2k is huge in Paris, too. Of all the stores we visited, the ones catering to Gen Zs and carrying newer vintage were the busiest.

Colors, prints, cargo skrts, crop tops! Altering and mending service. As fun as 90s and y2k vintage can get. Airy, welcoming space.
