Dover Street Market Paris
Dover Street Market is Comme des Garçons' Rei Kawakubo's vision of a department store, and the Paris outpost brings its particular curatorial madness to the city — a multi-floor concept store mixing the most directional high fashion with emerging labels, installation-style displays, and a deliberate sense of creative chaos. It's where you go to see what fashion is actually doing right now, not what it did last season. Less a shop than an edited argument about taste.
The Paris branch of the influential Comme des Garçons-founded concept store — a multi-brand, multi-floor fashion destination mixing avant-garde labels with emerging designers, in striking installation-style spaces.
An afternoon at DSM Paris tells you more about where fashion is going than a week of runway clips.
Go for the curation and the discovery, not the bargains.
The displays change and are half the experience.
Best for the fashion-forward shopper looking for the directional rather than the safe.
