LE PORTRAIT
An address with a clear point of view.
Located on Boulevard Marguerite de Rochechouart, Boutique Emmaüs in the 9th arrondissement is one of those conscientious addresses you find yourself returning to regularly — the stock rotates constantly and the curation is genuinely rigorous. The space is clean and well-organised, with a welcoming atmosphere that stands apart from some of the more chaotic consignment shops elsewhere. You'll find an appealing mix spanning decades: womenswear and menswear, books, everyday objects and curiosities of all kinds. Those hunting for recognisable labels occasionally strike gold here — APC, Maje and Héroïnes have all appeared on the shelves.
As with any worthwhile Emmaüs, you need to invest time in browsing to unearth the real finds, but the effort typically pays off. On a practical note, check opening hours in advance; online information isn't always current. A useful, human-scaled address and genuinely well-maintained for the neighbourhood.
« Belle boutique et accueil très chaleureux. On n'y trouve de belles choses à des prix imbattable. Patjean. »
