LE PORTRAIT
An address with a clear point of view.
Located on rue de la Verrerie in the heart of the Marais, KILO SHOP Kawaii is a pay-by-weight vintage shop with a clearly defined aesthetic: kawaii culture and Japanese vintage, presented in an organized and pleasant space. You'll find kimonos, vintage dresses, distinctive eyewear, and pieces that rarely appear in the neighbourhood's more conventional thrift stores. The shop is spacious and well-structured, making the hunt for treasures considerably more enjoyable than in denser pay-by-weight outlets. A few useful details before you visit: some items are priced individually rather than by weight.
Size availability varies with new stock arrivals, so regular visits are worthwhile if you want to catch the best finds. With a Fripmap score of 8.4 out of 10, this is an address worth seeking out if you're after something more specialized than a general vintage shop — particularly if you're drawn to vintage Japanese fashion in Paris.
« J'ai adoré le fait que, même pendant la canicule, l'endroit soit parfaitement climatisé ; la visite n'en a été que plus agréable et calme. Leurs prix sont très intéressants et beaucoup d'articles sont exclusifs à la boutique. Leur offre est assez spécifique : beaucoup de paillettes et de couleurs, et peu de marques connues. »
