As most fashionistas know, finding a Paris hotel room during Paris Fashion Week can be torture. Most of the good ones have been booked months ahead of time, and any of the decent ones that are still available cost a fortune for their meager size. Ask for a suite and you might as well buy an apartment in Paris! Solution: a
Paris luxury vacation rental. The bottom line is that it gives you loads of space, it is beautifully appointed, and you can rent it for a week or two on either side so that you have time to organize before the rush and pack up and relax afterwards.
The solution works well for all situations.
For instance, if you are a young designer showing a new line you may have a limited budget but an unlimited need for your staff and friends to be there to help you. A Paris luxury vacation rental in this situation becomes probably one of the most affordable options open to you. One Paris apartment should accommodate your entourage as well as provide you with space to unpack your clothes and hang them on portable clothes racks. Meal expense for your crowd comes down dramatically in this instance as well since you have a kitchen in your Paris apartment where everyone can stash their yogurt and vegetables or cook up a storm. Buyers can be invited in for a private showing. And your Paris apartment won’t have the extra room service, tipping, and extraneous costs tallied to your bill each day as they would be for multiple rooms in a Paris hotel.
Or, if you are an established veteran on the fashion scene, a
Paris luxury vacation rental is your chance to throw your weight around. Reserve one with drop-dead-gorgeous interior design and hold your opening reception there. Negotiate contracts there with the big department store buyers. Engage a butler to really gild the lilly. Hire a private chef and throw a dinner party. And for added glamour ask for a Paris luxury vacation rental with a view, so that at night when your clients and journalists show up they will be in awe of the view---as well as of you!
If you are a serious fashion shopper arriving to attend all the shows and place orders, hiring a Paris luxury vacation rental is a much better solution than staying in a hotel. Think of all the closets! One for each designer you buy from, long mirrors to try on outfits and have them altered, and extra beds to lay out purchases, handbags and shoes. It is also a great way to not put on extra pounds while staying in Paris. Seeing friends, attending parties, being asked out to dinner, all translate into calorie rich meals. Having your own kitchen in your Paris apartment allows you to stay on your regime and keep only the foods you want to consume stocked there.
People working Paris Fashion Week, like photographers, journalists, videographers, buyers and models, have learned the secret benefits of renting a Paris apartment. The peace found in a spacious apartment versus a hotel room allows them to spread out mentally, creatively, and physically to do their best work. There is room for everything. Equipment, cameras, and computers can be connected and up and running before show time. Coming “home” to continue working long hours into the night to get your product out for an international media waiting for it is comforting. Collaborators can be invited in and there is room for group work.
