Le Bon Marche is one of the top stores in Paris – with an incredible food court, designer clothes, jewelry, objets d’art, etc etc – it’s the Harrods or Harvey Nichs of Paris. It’s also owned by LVMH, the company that owns Marc Jacobs, Louis Vuitton, Moet and Hennessy. Think Barneys in Paris, but much, much bigger.
The store has incredible exhibitions every few months, with guest curators from around the world – which include the store windows and an interior exhibition. When New York City was the subject, Marc Jacobs was the guest curator.
This August 27th to October 12th (which will include Paris fashion week for spring 2010), the Bon Marche exhibition will be on Los Angeles. And L.A.’s own Liz Goldwyn will be creating the installation. She’ll have the windows and interior to show her vision of L.A. – and being a fashionista, jewelry designer, author of books and curator of sorts, we can be sure it will be interesting
Liz will be having a small dinner on Tuesday night at the Sunset Tower with the pr director of Le Bon Marche, Isabelle Picard, who is flying in. We look forward to seeing the exhibition and learning more about it, and then Fashionrules.com will impart it to you. – MG
