Didier Ludot has an extraordinary collection of vintage couture clothing & some pretty special
accessories. Always worth a look in Paris & there are several other resellers who also sell
classic & beautiful vintage bags. Have fun exploring
Didier ludot is very well known with beautiful stuff. There is also Rick Owens, serge lutens, Pierre hardy , and other stuff at Palais Royale. Nearby, is our favorite custom eye glass place Maison Bonet (best to make an Appt). MB did YSL and Jackie Kennedys iconic frames.
Thank you for this!
I recently read they were shutting down the boutique but are selling the remaining stock at auction in January:
Bonhams : « Le Dernier Passage » Collection Didier Ludot chez Bonhams Cornette de Saint Cyr à Paris le 30 janvier 2025

Maybe interesting bags to be sold!
I’m going to Paris in a couple of months and wondering what handbags I should focus on getting. I’m typically a Louis Vuitton fan but noticed the quality has gone down recently. Should I be spending my money elsewhere for example, Chanel or Celine or maybe lesser known brands? What are the best French brands and shopping deals while in Paris?
Paris has many handbag designers that perhaps you might fun & interesting in addition to all
the typical names that you might be familiar with.
Depending upon the price point that you are looking for, there are options to explore, JMO
