As many of the shops in the St. Germain and St. Honoré areas can be found in the U.S., I love visiting by-appointment-only salons in Paris where clothes and accessories are small-batch or custom-made. Here are nine of my favorites–new and old.

Thanks to Diego Della Valle and Daniel Roseberry, the brand from visionary Elsa Schiaparelli (a contemporary of Coco Chanel) is once again creating iconic pieces. The glamorous Schiaparelli Salons Boutique is inside Elsa’s former apartment on Place Vendome.
This salon near the Champ de Mars works with the finest mills in France—the same ones that often supply Hermès and Chanel—for its bespoke creations. Though fashion executive Nancy Pedot, Salon Septième’s founder, is American-born, her designs (choose from various fabrics, colors and styles) are quintessentially French.
Each of the housewares on display at Three Seven Paris is hand-crafted in the workshop at the back of the Left Bank store. Meant for everyday use, the customizable pieces are functional but undeniably fine.
is one of my favorite destinations in the world for stationery. The paper here—often decorated with animals and vibrant colors—makes for perfect note cards.
Furniture, containers and clutches from R&Y Augousti all have two things in common: they all showcase exotic leathers, and they’re all statement pieces. Case in point: shagreen side tables with a matching jewelry box.
