VOL.1 | The Silhouette Map of Paris
Tracing the places that shaped the world of ISHUE 1.
Marais Dress
The Neighbourhood
Le Marais is a study in contrasts - galleries sit beside bakeries, vintage storefronts meet contemporary ateliers, and the past moves gently alongside the present. It’s where heritage feels modern and every corner offers a quiet reminder of why people fall in love with Paris.
The Silhouette
The Marais Dress follows the district’s rhythm - a black silhouette shaped by clean lines and considered structure. Its timeless form is lifted by a subtle playfulness, giving it a presence that’s effortless yet assured.
While You’re There
• Begin at Place des Vosges, then stop for a chocolat chaud at Carette and watch the square move in slow motion
• Slip into Sevenly Heart Café for a spiced slice of carrot cake, then wander through Musée Carnavalet for a look at the city’s past
• End the evening at the Maison Proust bar - a vintage, candlelit pause in the heart of Le Marais
Vendôme Set
The Neighbourhood
Place Vendôme carries a distinct kind of Parisian order - balanced symmetry, classical columns, and a quiet sense of heritage and power. The square moves in a monochromatic palette, where every detail feels measured and precise. Its calm formality lends the space a presence that feels timeless.
The Silhouette
The Vendôme Set carries this geometry into its silhouette - sharp cuts, defined shapes, and a structure that moves with quiet authority. Each piece aligns with the next, creating a three-piece set shaped by precision and clarity.
While You’re There
• Begin with a short walk through Palais-Royal - let the stillness of the arcades slow you down
• Stop by Noir Coffee Shop for a perfectly iced latte, then head to Ritz Le Comptoir for an éclair from their classic pastry selection
• End the night at Maxim’s for dinner - a classic Parisian close
Pigalle Set
The Neighbourhood
Pigalle carries the creative pulse of Paris - a neighbourhood shaped by art, music, and a vibrancy that gives it its distinct character. Record shops, theaters, and intimate bars sit in quiet succession, giving the area a layered charm that feels youthful yet composed.
The Silhouette
The Pigalle Set follows this mood - a burgundy silhouette that feels chic, feminine, and quietly playful. Its romantic hue feels naturally at home here, echoing the creative poetry that runs through Pigalle’s streets. The look carries a charming ease, refined in a way that feels unmistakably Parisian.
While You’re There
• Begin with lunch at Pink Mamma - order the classic tiramisu or profiterole, then slip into Papillote Café for a warm cortado in a burgundy-hued corner
• Stop by Seamer for warm cookies or settle into Café Pigalle for something more local and unfussy
• Wander through Musée de la Vie Romantique for a quiet pause, then end the afternoon with a walk toward Montmartre, where the steps double as a stage for local musicians
Cambon Set
The Neighbourhood
Rue Cambon sits at the intersection of craft and quiet luxury, where mirrored windows, discreet ateliers, and decades of considered creation shape the atmosphere. The monochrome palette and polished calm give the street a sense of quiet permanence, and within that stillness, an old-world charm emerges.
The Silhouette
The Cambon Set follows this mood - a monochrome silhouette shaped by soft movement and layered ease. The two layers gently build upon one another, creating a form that feels composed yet fluid.
While You’re There
• Begin at Musée de l’Orangerie for a quiet moment with Monet’s water lilies, then walk through the Tuileries Garden as the pathways open into soft afternoon light
• Stop by Café Petibon for a light pause before the evening sets in
• End the night at Hôtel Costes - pavlova, a glass of red, and the kind of atmosphere that feels distinctly Parisian after dark
Opéra Gown
The Neighbourhood
The Opéra district holds a grandeur that feels distinctly Parisian - gilded balconies, ornate staircases, sculpted pillars, and a rhythm shaped by concerts, ballet, and theatre. At the heart of it all is the Opéra Garnier, where long corridors and cinematic chandeliers create an atmosphere that feels grand yet intimate.
The Silhouette
The Opéra Gown mirrors the architecture that inspired it - defined lines, thoughtful structure, and a softness that brings quiet movement to the silhouette. There’s a gentle fluidity to the way it moves, much like walking through the Opéra’s long corridors, where presence is felt without overstatement.
While You’re There
• Begin at Galeries Lafayette - take in the cinematic glass dome before stepping onto the terrace for a panoramic pause
• Wander through the Maison Fragonard Museum for a look at the history behind French fragrance
• Settle into Café de la Paix for a late-afternoon espresso, then cross the street to the Opéra Garnier and feel the shift in atmosphere as you step inside
