Rue Alesia

Rue d’Alésia in the 14th arrondissement is teeming with off-price and discount shops. This street is less known to Paris visitors, but a find if you’re looking for overstocks of a number of known designers. At No. 64 and 110-112 Rue d’Alésia you’ll find Sonia Rykiel, Cacharel Stock is at No. 114, Jacadi at No. 116 and there are many trendy boutiques in between. There are two antiques and furniture consignment stores on Rue d’Alésia, too. The biggest is simply called Depot Vente Alesia and it’s located at No. 117 (Open every day from 10am to 7 pm). You’ll find a huge selection at this shop where both individual and antique dealers sell their items. If you’re in the market for an antique armoire, table, chandelier, don’t miss it!

Discount Fabrics

Discount Fabrics

Marché St. Pierre
The Saint Pierre Fabric Market is the place to go if you’re on the lookout for discount fabrics and specialty stores. The streets just below the Sacre Coeur Basilica in Montmartre have been famous for discount fabrics for ages. Get off at Anvers métro and head for Rue d’Orsel and the square where you’ll find a big Dreyfus store and the red-awning Reines store. The fabric stores are slowly disappearing and being replaced by souvenir shops, but you can still find some beautiful silks and cottons … and even have curtains made up to bring home the same day!

While the neighborhood is not the best, it’s perfectly safe during the day.
