Coach Announces Paris Flagship

Coach Inc. (New York) will open its first Paris flagship this fall to coincide with the company’s 75th anniversary celebrations set to begin in September.

The Paris store, located at 372-374 Rue Saint-Honoré, will showcase the brand’s new flagship “modern luxury” concept, designed by its creative director Stuart Vevers and Studio Sofield designer and president William Sofield, reports Women’s Wear Daily.

The 6500-square-foot, two-floor unit will offer men’s and women’s products, including ready-to-wear, footwear, eyewear, jewelry, watches and fragrances.

The store will feature a blackened steel-and-mahogany staircase, hand-tufted carpets, and vintage and bespoke furniture. The design is intended to be evocative of New York, reports WWD.

Coach currently has six retail accounts in the French capital.
