    Looking for the best vintage boutiques in Paris? From carefully curated thrift stores and luxury resale destinations to hidden concept stores tucked away in the Marais and the 10th arrondissement, the French capital is packed with places to uncover one-of-a-kind finds. From seventies tailoring to Y2K silhouettes, here are the coolest vintage boutiques in Paris that deserve a spot on your radar.

    The best vintage boutiques in the Marais

    An iconic destination for vintage shopping in Paris, the Marais district is home to some of the city’s most sought-after thrift stores and fashion archives, offering everything from designer treasures to rare streetwear pieces.

    Extravagant Y2K vintage at Snow Bunny

    The shop? Rhinestone-studded tortoiseshell Dolce & Gabbana sunglasses, a quilted Chanel mini bag, beige croc-print platform sandals, 2000s Dior mules, pink Juicy Couture velour sets… The treasures at Chez Snow Bunny are tailor-made for the “charming, coquettish young woman,” says founder Victoria Sapet, who runs the most glamorous and Y2K-obsessed vintage boutique in the capital.

    Famous regulars? The store has charmed stars like American rapper Tyler The Creator, Julia Fox, SZA, and actress Lily-Rose Depp.

    SELECTION Marais: A Concept Store for the Next Gen

    The shop? More than a vintage boutique, SELECTION Marais—founded in 2021 by Alban Bardin —is a launchpad for young designers. The concept store collaborates with fashion and art schools, like the Duperré School, and hosts events from concerts to exhibitions. It even publishes its own magazine, the second issue of which is available at the Palais de Tokyo and Yvon Lambert bookstore.

    Vintage gems? From a Balenciaga runway invite shaped like an iPhone to a Moschino McDonald’s-inspired outfit from Fall/Winter 2014, the shop boasts a treasure trove of unique finds —including a 2007 Martin Margiela jacket, a 1992 bodysuit by Azzedine Alaïa, and a pink 1992 Gianni Versace suit.

    Numero13: A new vintage store in the Marais

    The shop? Behind this project lies a friendship between two vintage enthusiasts, Estelle Couriol and Mateo Burlot. After several collaborations, they opened their own boutique in the heart of the Marais, which has quickly become one of Paris’s essential vintage destinations. Inside, shoppers will find an eclectic selection of designer pieces, from Prada to Jean Paul Gaultier, chosen for their distinctive design and unique character.

    Vintage gems? Funky Dior boots designed by John Galliano, a 1990s Issey Miyake dress, and even rare pieces that have been exhibited at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs.

    Nuovo: 2010s-inspired fashion

    The shop? In just a short time, Lisa Lingenti has crafted a boutique with a singular identity, setting it apart from anything else in Paris. Perfectly located in the heart of the Marais, NUOVO revives the spirit of a bygone era with desirable vintage pieces that evoke a lighter, more innocent approach to fashion.

    While many of the pieces bear the Plein Sud label—a brand founded in 1984 known for its sun- kissed silhouettes—the selection also includes curated finds: leather tote bags, clingy mini dresses, striped polos, ruffled skirts, round-toe heels, and lace-up tops that are equal parts sultry and casual.

    The cherry on top? The shop is open every single day.

    Famous regulars? The boutique has become a favorite haunt for stars like Addison Rae, Tina Kunakey, and runway regular Amelia Gray.

    Yallä: A super friendly thrift shop

    The shop? Founded about four years ago by Regina Daghman and Mr. Kayz, Yallä spans three warm and colorful locations in Paris’s 9th, 10th, and 18th arrondissements. Always buzzing, these shops rank among the city’s top vintage stores, offering both unbranded items and iconic designer pieces in an inclusive, sharply curated selection—a true love letter to fashion.

    Vintage gems? A black leather Pencil Cat bag from a recent Lanvin collection, a ’80s Schott Town bomber that straddles the line between leather jacket and puffer, and a sharply tailored Balmain blazer dress, the epitome of Olivier Rousteing’s graphic style.

    Iregular: Revamped 1990s minimalism

    The shop? Brie Larson, Rosalía, Simon Porte Jacquemus, Nina Park… From It-girls to top designers to Hollywood stars, they’ve all walked through Iregular’s doors. Founded by fashion archivist and historian Riad, the store spans two minimal spaces side by side near Saint-Georges. 

    Vintage gems? The ever-evolving collection includes rarities like a John Galliano gown for Dior inspired by the paintings of Mariano Fortuny y Madrazo, a 1997 Comme des Garçons dress from the “Body Meets Dress” collection, and a silk djellaba by Tom Ford from 1999. Pieces you won’t find anywhere else.

    Other Parisian boutiques to know

    Souvenir Machine: US vintage in the heart of Paris

    The shop? Part vintage store, part screen-printing studio, Souvenir Machine was founded in 2022 as “a sort of time capsule in the heart of Paris, where you can soak up the vibe of a nearly vanished America: one of rebels, creatives, and hippies,” according to its founder Thomas, a lifelong collector of vintage T-shirts.

    Whether you’re into Harley-Davidson, Mickey Mouse, or cult 1980s films like Wild at Heart or Batman, this place will feel like stepping into a dream. Then, there are the hidden treasures — velvet trousers, oversized bombers, fringed jackets, and boots —hundreds of them packed into this Aladdin’s cave.

    Gems to find? Among the most coveted and rare items: a waterproof US Navy anorak from World War II and a satin souvenir jacket from the Korean War era, hand-embroidered in the 1960s.
