Le Sept Cinq

The brainchild of two business school students, Le Sept Cinq concept store is a showcase for the work of young Parisian designers whose materials and workshops are all locally based. Here you’ll find Season Paper notebooks, rings by Mademoiselle S, Ines de la Fressange candles, Bobbies boots and My Suelly bags. Men aren’t left out either, with things like Newstalk t-shirts and Toucan Bleu bow ties on offer. The chic yet homely space is a lovely setting for all these original design ideas – and the best thing, of course, is that this is more than just a shop. There’s a cosy café area for tea and cakes, and the owners Audrey and Lorna keep up a lively cycle of exhibitions, book signings and interactive sessions with designers.
