FLOYD in PARIS

Paris during Fashion Week seemed like the perfect place to throw a party. We drove there in two old station wagons, all the way from Munich. We spent the morning circling the city and the afternoon parked outside the Marché des Enfants Rouges, where they got photographed more than most of the people walking past.

The market has been around since the early 1600s, and it shows in the best possible way. It's the oldest covered market in Paris, named after the orphans of a nearby hospice who were dressed in red, and it nearly disappeared in the nineties before the neighbourhood fought to keep it.

At the back you'll find Les Enfants du Marché, a little kitchen tucked into the market, with stools around it, no reservations, an incredible wine list, and dishes that blow your mind. Serious chefs come here on their days off.

We brought a 2 meter tall Floyd Cabin replica with us and placed it right in front of the restaurant. 

From noon until eight, people kept coming. Designers and photographers came, along with stylists, friends of friends and models with an hour to spare between shows. We were happy to introduce Floyd to a few new faces as well. Fashion Week is mostly ten minutes here before you have to be somewhere else. That afternoon, nobody seemed to have anywhere else to be.

Thank you for drinking lots of wine with us, eating well, and being the best company. Together, we brought the Floyd spirit to Paris. Big thanks to the whole team at Les Enfants du Marché for being such legends!
