Galleries Lafayette

Parisian fashion under an art nouveau masterpiece

From haute couture to gourmet delights, Galeries Lafayette is a temple of French style. Don’t miss the stained-glass dome above the central atrium—it’s a showstopper.

In the world’s fashion capital, with a majestic art nouveau steel and glass couple which is the iconic symbol of the shopping mall, numerous world-renowned fashion brands are headquartered all under one roof. Originally, Galleries Lafayette opened as a small haberdashery in 1896, then expanding to a luxury bazaar. Today, Galleries Lafayette continues to serve up an expansive range of fashion and innovation.
