It's one of the most challenging steps to perfecting your look... A beautiful, perfectly tailored pair of jeans truly makes a difference. Flare, bootcut, carrot, mom, crop, straight – there are so many shapes and different brands that it's overwhelming. To make it easier for you, we suggest taking a look at these three stores that will make you a denim pro. We want comfort, elongated legs, and... a nice butt!
Let's go vintage!
For shopping for unique pieces, the Saint-Ouen flea market is truly the place to be. In addition to branded bags, designer jewelry, and furniture, you'll inevitably find the perfect pair of jeans there! Well-tailored with just the right amount of stretch, ideally worn-in or even altered, you can find a bit of everything and especially something for everyone. Of course, it will take a bit of patience and, most importantly, a discerning eye to uncover that rare gem you won't want to part with.
Our advice? Take a stroll to Sacha Alexandre's store, A Vintage Touch Paris, which scavenges incredible vintage pieces collected directly from its shop with the orange storefront. Opt for brands like Lee, Diesel, Levi’s, and Wrangler, promising beautifully contoured legs thanks to their thick and dense fabric that blurs out any minor imperfections. The ideal? Get informed about your size beforehand to save time, although trying on is an essential part! Just slip into an outfit easy to remove and allocate some time to ensure you find the piece of your dreams. With a bit of luck, you might just discover your treasure on the first visit!
A Vintage Touch Paris, Vernaison Market at the Saint-Ouen flea market, 99 rue des rosiers, 93400 Saint-Ouen-sur-Seine. Open Saturday to Monday from 10 am to 6 pm. Jeans starting from €60.
Custom-made jeans are available
Have you always dreamed of slipping into a pair of jeans and having them fit perfectly right off the bat? That's the challenge Labdip has taken on: perfect buttocks, enhanced silhouette, boosted self-confidence – that's what awaits you when you wear one of these jeans. Because no, you don't need to be a size 36 to feel beautiful in denim. With a few curves, flat buttocks, or overly large thighs, for X, V, A, or H body types, we've got you covered, and we find your perfect fit every time. In short, we promise you a flattering, comfortable jean, and most importantly, at a very affordable price.
And it's easy: just make an appointment directly at the store for a personalized experience. The Labdip experts first take your measurements and analyze your silhouette. The goal is really to understand your body and your expectations. Now that you know your body type, we offer you several models to try according to your tastes and desires. You head into the fitting room, and WOW! A perfect fit, great color, optimal comfort. We're almost certain you'll find the jeans of your dreams and leave with only one desire: to put them on and never take them off again!
Labdip, 58 rue Amelot, Paris 11th. Open from 9 am to 7 pm Tuesday to Saturday. Online reservation for a free 20-minute appointment and jeans starting from €115.
We recycle our old favorites
Your favorite jeans have lost a bit of their soul, and you’re craving something new? Levi’s, THE ultimate denim brand, offers to give your favorite pieces a second life. This upcycling initiative invites you to personalize and completely reinvent your jeans directly in-store.
You can add patches, change buttons in different colors, embroider sweet words or beautiful designs, switch up the leather label on the back, add rips, create a hem, or even repair tears, zipper issues, and other flaws. The latest addition? You can now opt for Sashiko, a Japanese stitching technique that creates visible white seams. Simply bring in your Levi’s (freshly washed beforehand) or pick out a new pair in-store and make it your own. You’ll walk out with a completely unique piece that you’ll want to wear over and over again.
Levi’s, 44 Avenue des Champs-Élysées, 75008 Paris 8e. Open daily from 10 AM to 8:30 PM. Customization: €5 per patch, €10 for 3, and €15 for 5, €3 per button, embroidery starting at €15, €3 per stud. Processing time: 2 days to 2 weeks.
