It turns out many years later that my beloved wife is a huge admirer of Girbaud and looks, if I do write so myself, absolutely lovely in this avant-garde clothing. The store staff are Paris friendly and super helpful but, most important, they are patient during what for my wife must have been hours of trying on this, trying on that, mixing and matching toward deciding what combinations made for an ensemble and those that did not. If you're in Paris and want to try what for me is one of this lovely country's designers out on the edge, get yourself over to Marithé et François Girbaud. --- Incroyablement, je possédais une paire de pantalon Girbaud quand j'étais très, très jeune et ils ont été les plus-out-là pantalon J'ai ensuite ou ait jamais eu.

The owner and his sons are fantastic and had the best selection of shirts we found in Paris (but at 1/3 the price of the high end department stores). We found very high end (custom quality shirts) for approx €65 each. The store also carries scarves €25-€35 and ties €25. Best shirt store in Paris and Le Marais! Note there are two location next to each other. One has lower priced shirts and the other the higher end "boxed high end shirts". Make sure you go to BOTH stores, they are on parallel streets literally steps from each other. The shop staff can direct you to either location.

I bought myself a great hat made in some shop that once existed on this very Rue du Cotte. My wife almost spent on a pair of beautiful Louis Vuitton boots, but they slipped a bit in the heel. When shopping for food at Marche Aligre, stop into Le 18 A La Cotte and maybe you will uncover a hidden treasure.
