VA081 A Glimpse of the Great Names of Fashion: An Anecdotal Fashion Walk and Talk

The Avenue Montaigne in the 8th arrondissement is one of Paris's leading fashion streets. All the major fashion houses have shops along its length, from Dior and Balenciaga to Chanel, Givenchy and Dolce and Gabbana.

When we all meet at the Diana Flame, Anne Campbell-Crawford, the walk leader, will begin by discussing the 'flame' before crossing the road to start the 'Fashion Walk and Talk' in Avenue Montaigne. It will be an informal stroll and members can contribute as they walk. Anne always brings her book of quotes from the great designers, which starts the comments rolling.

Please note: Anne is not a fashion consultant and does not give fashion advice. Also, this is not a fashion tour, e.g., for choosing outfits or accessories.

Meeting point: The ‘Diana Flame’ next to the Pont de l’Alma.

Métro station Alma-Marceau Line 9, Pont de l’Alma exit. 

RER C station Pont de l’Alma. Cross the river to the Right Bank.
