Réciproque
Set up by a young PR in 1978, this 7,535 sq ft (700 sqm) collection of six shops is the largest and best of all the dépôt-vente in Paris. Dépôt-vente are boutiques to which well-heeled Parisiennes sell their old (often never worn) clothes, and mortal folk can get their hands on them for less than buying them new. Réciproque has thousands of designer items, from rails stuffed with classic Chanel jackets to Yohji Yamamoto and men’s leather accessories.
