The Montaigne-Avenue in Paris is probably the artery where the great names of French and international fashion and Haute-Couture are most numerous. It’s a shopping dream for many tourists whose means match their prices. For others, it’s a chance to dream, and to visit the boutiques if you wish.
To make your visit easier, we’ve selected the 29 stores and merchants on Avenue-Montaigne (almost 80%) that have been rated by tourists who’ve been there before you.
And we’ve presented these stores in a variety of ways, for you to choose from:
- on a map,
- in the order they appear on your itinerary,
- but also by type of business (if your search is “specialized”),
- alphabetically, to search for a particular shop,
- with each merchant’s address, telephone number and a service quality rating (or appreciation) directly available on the map (Pop Up).
How we selected the 29 stores on Montaigne-Avenue
The stores we recommend are rated from 1 to 5, and we’ve eliminated from our lists those rated below 4.0 (with a few exceptions, 3.2 or 3.5, to show you which stores to avoid in particular). Merchants are rated by tourists who have preceded you on this Avenue-Montaigne itinerary.
Walk from Arc-de-Triomphe to Place de la Concorde, shopping and relaxation on Montaigne-Avenue
The Avenue-Montaigne “tour” can be done independently. But you can also “link” it to an idea for shopping on the Champs-Elysées and to the walk we’ve also published about it: “Arc-de-Triomphe – Place-de-la-Concorde walk along the Avenue des Champs-Elysées“. This would give you a comprehensive overview of Haute Couture, Fashion and Luxury in Paris, located in the area known as the “Golden Triangle”, bounded by Avenue Montaigne, the Champs-Elysées and George-V Avenue.
Of course, visiting and shopping on Avenue-Montaigne and the Champs-Elysées is no mean feat. That’s why you’ll also find on these itineraries “relaxation breaks” in addition to the “shopping breaks”: coffee breaks, restaurant breaks, art gallery breaks, etc. also rated according to the quality of service you’re entitled to.

1 | Balenciaga 57 Ave Montaigne 75008 Paris | Vêtements femmes | 4,0 | I brought back a pair for the after-sales service, the sales assistant was very unpleasant, looking at me sideways because I asked for a repair which for her was a futility and which would not be taken into account. I don't recommend Balenciaga avenue Montaigne. |

11 | Gucci 60 Av. Montaigne 75008 Paris | Vêtements | 4,1 | Masterful salesman, and borderline disrespectful, I waited 35 minutes to try on a cap in stock, not in the same color. He repeats 30 times something I've already heard. Frankly, the sales policy needs to be overhauled. |
