👉🏼New on the site: Meet Margot Lecarpentier, Bartender, Paris Maker. Raised in Normandy, Margot practised law for two years in NYC, falling in love with the cocktail culture there. Returning to France, she became a waitress at @experimentalcocktailclubparis , moving up to bartender before launching her own joint, @combat.belleville in 2017. This women-run ‘cocktail bistro’ draws its name from the surrounding Combat quarter, but also nods to the feminist struggle close to Margot’s heart. Bright, open and with an outdoor terrace, its beautifully balanced cocktails are complemented by superior bar snacks including stuffed artichokes. #makersparis #mkrsfamily #lifeinparis #lifeonearth #slowlife #friendsandfamily #apero #cocktails

❤️ @azzedinealaiaofficial has reopened its roving Petite Boutique – offering discounted wares since the ‘80s – with a focus on ‘transmission and heritage’. Next door to the historic 'Grande Boutique' on Rue de Moussy, it presents curated pieces from past collections and donations by the maison's friends (profits from the latter go to genetic-disease research institute Imagine). Vintage queen Anouschka, a friend of Alaïa’s, is curating the edit, which will change four to six times a year; the first has a summery white theme. #makersparis #mkrsfamily #lifeinparis #slowparis #slowlife #parisshopping #azzedinealaia

👉🏼New on the site : Meet Victoria Effantin & Cécile Khayat, bakers, pastry chefs, entrepreneurs, Paris makers! They are the founders of @boulangeriemamiche on Rue Condorcet, a new-generation, women-run corner bakery (already with a spin-off on Rue du Château d’Eau) that might be best known for its addictive chocolate babka, but also has a range of savoury offerings that are inventive, healthy and feature stellar sourcing, be it aged cheese from Terroirs d’Avenir or Prince de Paris ham. #makersparis #mkrsfamily #lifeinparis #lifeonearth #slowfood #frenchbakery #slowlife #frenchbread

Our friends at @ofrparis have just released this short film 'Mon Pays C’est Paris' (My Country is Paris). It’s a week in the life of the landmark Parisian bookshop and gallery, and a freewheeling, generous, improvised ode to Paris. In our book 'Makers Paris', Alex explains “The Paris we love is the Paris of artists, the Paris where things are possible, the Paris that is open socially, open religiously, open in terms of families. Where things are possible, where we can express ourselves, where we’re not trying to become billionaires. The Paris of freedom.” They’ll be organising some public screenings this summer. And you can watch the film on YouTube here https://youtu.be/iAPAXl0O7m0. There’s a link in the @ofrparis bio too. #makersparis #mkrsfamily #lifeinparis #lifeonearth #slowlife #thismachinekillsfascists

👉🏼New on the site: Meet Gwendoline Van Opstal & Nicolas Le Jeune. From 2012-19 they ran Aux Singuliers, a concept store in Troyes, where they were inspired by a nearby museum, the Maison de l’Outil et de la Pensée Ouvrière, dedicated to tools and the history of apprenticeship and run by the historic French craftsman’s guild the Compagnons du Devoir. In 2019, the duo pooled their talents to relaunch veteran French workwear boutique @lablousedelyon here in Paris, keen to safeguard the soul and specialism of the venue while giving it new life in the 21st century. Here you’ll find dedicated carpenter’s shirts alongside dungarees by veteran Burgundy label @lelaboureur.fr , French cowboy garb by Les Indiennes de Nîmes, clogs by historic company @bosabo_official … #makersparis #mkrsfamily #lifeinparis #lifeonearth #slowlife #workwear #parisshopping #retouralanormale

👉🏼New on the site! Meet Camille Fourmont, sommelier, cook, Paris maker. After a two-year stint as barkeep at chef Iñaki Aizpitarte’s much-loved @chateaubriand_dauphin , Camille struck out on her own in late 2013, opening cult Paris wine shop, bar and café @la.buvette.paris. Her ‘cave à manger’ is as reliably satisfying as it is tiny, with just a few flea-market-sourced tables, a ‘petit zinc’ and a miniature kitchen where owner Camille turns out charcuterie, cheese and her famous gigante white beans, paired with a great list of natural wines by the glass. (And she just published a book of ‘Recipes and Wine Notes from Paris’’) #makersparis #mkrsfamily #lifeinparis #slowlife #slowfood #friendsandfamily #naturalwine #winebar 📸 @pissinginthepunchbowl

💥👉🏻 New interview out!! Meet Pierre-Alexis, one half of the brotherhood that founded @kerzon.paris, natural care products for the home, the linens, and the body. #makersparis #mkrsfamily #lifeinparis #slowlife #locallife #shoppinginparis #cleanbeauty #kerzon

👉🏼New on the site ! Meet Amélie Pichard, shoe and accessory designer, Paris maker. 🐊 She launched her tongue-in-cheek, whimsical label @ameliepichard in 2011. Highs since then include a vegan shoe collaboration with @pamelaanderson and the opening of her Paris boutique, Chez Pichard. The Rue de Lappe flagship nails the spirit of Pichard’s playful, provocative maison, presenting her shoe and accessory line in a decadent but sleek boudoir setting. Head to the bed to try on a pair of ‘70s-style faux-python platforms, or browse cute bags and ‘pichardises’ (ranging from the mussel belt, to a ‘cliché Hello from Paris’ scarf). #makersparis #mkrsfamily #lifeinparis #slowlife #lifeonearth #parisshopping #friendsandfamily

👉🏼New on the site ! Meet Sylvie Chateigner & Amnaye Nhas, they run @thanxgodimavip , one of the city’s best vintage destinations. The stylist staple has its roots in the house music scene and clubs of the 90s in Paris, where Sylvie was by turns a door bitch, promoter and style icon. Located near République for over a decade – and today spread across three and soon four shop fronts! – its colour-coded racks for men and women present pristine vintage designer garb and accessories – Hermès carrés, Mugler dresses, plus more wallet-friendly second-hand threads – in a resolutely cool, contemporary way. #makersparis #mkrsfamily #lifeinparis #slowlife #lifeonearth #friendsandfamily #vintage #vintagefashion #parisshopping

👉🏼New on the site : Meet @yorgotloupas, graphic designer, art director, founder of @yorgakicafe, Paris maker!. Yorgaki is possibly the city’s most authentic ‘Kafeneion’, or Greek café, and is as slick as you’d expect given Yorgo’s design pedigree. Here you’ll find genuine Greek coffee brewed over hot sand, as well as iced frappé and freddo varieties, plus all the classic snacks, like tzatziki, taramasalata, or choriatiki salad. And of course the projet is a design and branding experiment too, with everything from the logo to the paper napkins designed by Yorgo. #makersparis #mkrsfamily #slowlife #locallife #lifeinparis #friendsandfamily #greekfood #greekinparis
