Fashion stores Caen

Ose Iris is a small, cozy store with a Scandinavian decor in downtown Caen that opened in 2006. It is staffed by opticians specializing in optometry and contactology, including Valérie, the manager. Here, no shelves, but small French, Swiss or Danish designers. You can choose your glasses like a jewel, like an essential fashion accessory. The prices are varied to satisfy all budgets, and the advice is very professional and does not push you to consume. Only for your eyes, in short!

Here, we rake wide. From Charentaise à pépère (once again in vogue, vintage magic) in the outside display to Ted Lapidus shoes, Clarks, Kickers or Doc Marteens. Be careful, on the back wall, their shelves (width: two shoes) are not hypersolid. If you drop a pair, it's domino theory! The iron chairs (Hello, it says so on them) are certainly funny but not very comfortable. That said, you are here to find shoes and don't worry, there is a choice.

Unforgettable brands: Clarks, Camper, Hogan, Boss, Ark, Birkenstock, Car Shoe, Eden Park, Fratelli Rossetti, John Grey or Geox (face to Geox!) to name just a few brands. An ensign that years seem to slide without altering anything. At Charles, we have been designer for 3 generations. At the door, the smell of leather ticklish the nostrils. The window is wide, and you enter the store without realizing it. Good advice, try sitting on a chocolat chocolate…

Last year, Stor'Age took the gamble of moving to a larger, more centrally-located space, with more attractive pieces. The gamble paid off, as the store is still going strong! In the colors of the Union Jack, the store has lost none of its superb look! Resolutely young and urban, it remains open to all. Brands include Sessùn, Fusalp, The North Face, Avnier... Prices are a little high, but the sales are a great opportunity to make a real splash! Manu puts you at ease right from the start, and his advice is excellent. A great address!

At the corner of the rue de Bernières and rue Saint-Jean, a novelty without really being… indeed, Olly Gan simply ceded the place to Gentleman Farmer. Change in continuity because the shop already proposed this brand before. However, rest assured, Martine and Marie-Christine are always there to welcome You and advise you. As we write these lines, the shop is in full work, wait and see, we will tell you more about this Gentleman Farmer next year. One thing is sure, this change will not alter the quality of the reception and advice!

Here is a hyper innovative concept that is going to be a hit! While we advocate the second hand because less polluting (the textile industry is really not a good student), we wonder how new can play the card of eco-responsibility. First of all, by putting an end to overproduction, here we only manufacture to order, no waste! 100% from Caen, for chic and timeless pieces to which we must add the low ecological impact of the manufacturing process, or the end of stocks from luxury houses. We want more, do you?

A perfectly tailored suit, a dream? Not for long, thanks to Ivan and his confidential boutique. The young man will work with you on an individual, personalized basis to offer you a suit tailored to your morphology, at an affordable price and with an eco-responsible approach! Just imagine, for one suit you'll be able to choose from almost 10,000 fabrics! You can then personalize your outfit with a wide choice of accessories. And if, by some misfortune, that garment needs repairing, Ivan will be there for you too!

We love this shoe shop! Here you have real craftsmen, Marie in the back room and Fabrice always in action, hardcore shoe and leather workers. No rush jobs, but an impeccable quality of service. These outstanding shoemakers are happy to give life back to your leathers! However, if your shoes are irretrievable, we let you know, honest no? ! You can also visit them for minute keys. And all this without paying a lot of money! A word, a gesture, Cartier does the rest!

Benoît continues to populate the Caen landscape with his trendy and audacious boutiques that we love to raid (during the sales!). Three stores, that wasn't enough, no no no! At Koko Shop, even if the urban-streetwear concept is also used here, new brands of clothes and sneakers are offered. Asics, Obey, Deus Ex Machina, or even made in France signed Tinsels for example. A ready-to-wear capable of breathing a breath of fresh air into any wardrobe. So nothing can prevent beautiful adventures!

Edji is a brand created in 2011 by a team of designers aimed at the young generation, both boys and girls. This brand is intended to constantly search for new and look-alike, so we understand better the choice of its name "Edji" which means in English "be avant-garde", addict to the culture of style. You can discover this store to make it an idea with its wide range of styles and materials, more connected or more classical, with colour but soft, paillettes, but in style, skirts (though slightly short for some!)…

This boutique has a space for men, and another for women and juniors. Here you have an important choice: t-shirts, jackets, skirts, pants, dresses, shirts, sweaters… But also nice shoes that can get out of the ordinary and some accessories. With many brands presented such as Teddy Smith, Adidas, School Rag, Kiliwatch or even eleven Paris… Blue Box lets you choose… With an interesting price/price ratio, you don't hesitate to take a tour!

New Yorker confirms its reputation. A success story with over 700 subsidiaries in more than 1971 countries, this is the story of growth that began in with the first open shop in northern Germany in Flensburg. The New Yorker shops are always located on attractive commercial sites and it seems obvious that the shopping centre of the Rives includes the criteria for the installation of the brand as it offers an optimum buying environment! The target clientele is young (12-40 years old). Always listening, the collections are adapted every season and shops know how to create an ideal shopping environment to stimulate interest and curiosity.

At Café Cotton, the bride will be able to choose the shirt of his dreams from a wide selection: from the classical to the most colourful, but always with class and sobriety. Also on sale, accessories, shirts, ties and costumes to perfect your package! So the embarrassment of choice! A safe value. The brand uses only high-quality, natural materials such as silk, cashmere, or cotton, carefully chosen with a view to satisfying you.

New teaches to appear in Caen, on the shores of the Orne, of course. There are ready-to-wear collections, youth and sport with a whole universe dedicated to man but also a space for women. Jeans from different models, hooded sweats, shirts and t-shirts but also jackets and doudounes for a trendy style but at a somewhat high price! G-Star customers adopt its own line. Do not hesitate to consult their website and online shop.

There are hats to be had, but you can't find an artisan milliner-hatter on every street corner. So we can show off a little, because in Caen, we've got one! Sold and/or manufactured here with passion and great taste, forget the "pépère gapette" look! At Mr Chapeau, a.k.a. Michel Rousseau, old-fashioned, refined materials take pride of place for modern, elegant pieces. Choose from in-house designs or creations by other milliners, at the request of both men and women. As for us, Monsieur, our hats are off to you!

The Spanish brand has become unavoidable. Whether you are a woman, a man, whom you are fifteen years old, or the fifty well advanced, difficult not to be attracted to one of these trendy clothes whose brand is secret. On the ground floor as on the floor, we are happy to go between the different displays, with the rhythm of an electro music that in the long run can become stressful, but it must be said grows to consumption! Especially as prices are attractive, and the stark choice: jackets, trousers, shoes, skirts, t-shirts, sliced tones: black, white, red… The recipe takes, and often comes from the signed store… of a "Z".

Gentlemen, if you've never been to this address, you're missing out! The French brand has conquered the whole territory, and Caen since 2012. Here you'll find nothing but perfectly finished gentleman's shoes, the kind that give you the presence and elegance of a James Bond. In fact, we call them "shoes", a nuance that makes all the difference. There's a plethora of choice, and a wide range of sizes (38 to 48, with half sizes). A beautiful place, from which you leave with a few extra centimetres of confidence.

Benoît is far from a beginner - he knows all about clothes! Just look at his arsenal of boutiques, some of the trendiest in Caen: Stor'Age on rue Ecuyère, Fridge on rue Froide, Koko'shop on rue Paul Doumer and It Shop, again on rue Froide. The store is spread over several levels, with a very urban shop feel. The brands are in tune with the times. T-shirts, little dresses, jackets, down jackets and an impressive collection of shoes for men and women, from sneakers to moccasins. Finally, the welcome is top-notch. Go for it!

To put your child's shoes on, go to Pauline and Julie, mother hens par excellence. Their pretty store is dedicated to children's shoes and the welcome is as warm and friendly as their rainbow logo. Boots, tennis shoes, sandals and the famous Medusas, you'll find everything you need to keep your child's shoes on during the day as well as at night (oh the beautiful slippers!). You'll also find a wide range of accessories. Beautiful brands, affordable prices, an interest in ecology. Plus, they don't push you to sell. That's great!

Instead of the place of Michèle Zeller, an essential stopover of this street in the area of elegance, here is a shop that also put on the same elegance, being entirely dedicated to the brand Longchamp (two small sisters already exist in Rouen and Valenciennes). Apart from this… the shop is light, the refined and refined garden and the brand the every corner on two levels. Apart from that… you only have an embarrassment of choice: bags, scarves, shoes, travel, folding, case, man, woman, junior and high school high school… Complete ranges and regular arrivals for this brand that has been able to build on quality and count many amateurs. Apart from this… side-side, the dealer is adorable. And otherwise, apart from this… don't hesitate to ask for the loyalty card.

Because a woman's beauty is more than just a standard and a size 36, Christine decided to create a boutique where beautiful women are the stars. As soon as you enter, she already knows what will fit you. From size 44 to 62, you'll find trendy, young and European brands and their pieces with beautiful materials for the famous "perfect fall". Whether you're looking for a casual, sportswear or gala look, you'll find something to suit you (literally and figuratively, since you can try on boots for wide calves!). Bravo !

Certainly the Magasin store is not a novelty in France or in Caen, but from time to time remembering the good old addresses does not hurt. So let's stop for a moment on this loan-to-wear teacher, created in 1902 in Amiens, which we really like. The Saint John Street Shop is beautiful and wide-ranging with its vintage furniture and contemporary lighting. The garments are quality and display affordable prices with the same quality. All styles are represented: discreet, connected, chic, casual. The shop map offers some really interesting cuts. And then make the test: you can wash and relaver your Devred clothes, they don't move. It is a sign…

Cicada or ant? It's up to you! Here, you will find new and second hand clothes (second hand in ultra short circuit: they are the clothes of its customers!). With a choice of first quality, impossible to be deprived! Many pretty pieces which under their false casual airs can become ultra-chic with some accessories. And not to spoil anything, Pascale is charming and generous with beautiful attentions for her customers whose tastes she targets. Cicada or ant, you will find the outfit that will suit you perfectly from size 36 to 48.

Is your pair of shoes in low spirits? Stéphane Chalard can certainly help. It's good to have the right addresses to give your belongings a second lease on life. The shoemaker holds no secrets. Tell him about your problem, and he'll examine it with his expert eye and do his best. If it's beyond repair, he'll tell you straight out - no tricks here! As a bonus, he'll give you the right advice to prevent it from happening again - and that's priceless!

Because ironing is such a chore. Because it's very well done. Because the turnaround time is reasonable (72 hours). That's why we love La Repasserie, and have for over 25 years! It has to be said that Sylvie is a pro at what she does, and has successfully managed to expand her range of services. Traditional ironing (but with professional equipment!), sewing, dry-cleaning, laundry and even a women's clothing depot! Prices are based on weight, with a sliding scale if you have a subscription.

On one of the most lively streets of Caen, a pretty shop run by the welcoming Margot, who is dedicated to offering Origine France Garantie eyewear. Among the referenced French brands: Bonnie and Clyde, Roussilhe, Paname. Glasses and sunglasses but also sports glasses, swimming goggles, diving masks, protective glasses for men, women, without forgetting children. A colourful space is especially dedicated to them. Margot, in addition to working with a French glassmaker, pampers her clients and accompanies them from A to Z. It's all there!

Years that Olivier occupies this space in downtown. It is true, we go ahead often, we know it is there but good… Fortunately, word of mouth works! And we discover this centre of over 800 m ², which welcomes you with open arms. There's already the ring as soon as one enters, and then we see the "chef" (it's the mechanics who call it this) who kitchen with its "second" engines, put oil, drain, suggest, and is not avare of advice. It's a pity that it doesn't make a mess but it's going to be there, it's in the city centre, and you can find a room that's missing from colleagues across France, exactly the same rate as any Speedy. And as Olivier says, in any case: it is the car that commands!

Brides-to-be may be familiar with Elsa Gary's beautiful dresses. But gentlemen, have you heard of his male alter ego Christophe? If you want to shake up the conventions, look no further, Pap or not Cap is there for you. Christophe has created (it's really him who designs) a beautiful collection of reversible bow ties for young and old. Patterns and colors or more sober and plain, you choose the side. Not stopping there, cufflinks, clutches, custom-made ties, children's belts are also part of the collection.

After training in luxury leather goods at the Ateliers Grégoire in Paris, Rosa launched herself in 2018. Passionate about creation and noble materials, more particularly leather, it was in the evening, after her classes, that she created her first leatherette clutches. Today, Rosa Lopez's elegant bags will make your heart beat, designed in Caen, handmade in Paris, with high-end French leathers from the dormant stocks of great houses. Her creations are available online, as well as at the atelier-showroom.

Make way for young people and humour! We had to dare to launch a brand based on puns with Caen. It reminds us of Raymond Devos' memorable sketch, "Le bus pour Caen". Erika has inspiration too. A graphic designer and Norman by adoption, the co-founder of CaenCaens creates the visuals for this pop and positive brand. Thus, the "Caen on veut on peut", "Caen je serai grand(e)", "We Caen do it" are displayed on tee-shirts, bags, pouches, mugs or key rings. To be found on the website. Attention, " CaenTité limitée " !

Kathy Couture has struck again! This is the third boutique she's opened on Rue Demolombe, along with Comptoir de Coquettes and Onglerie des Coquettes, except this time it's not a beauty salon, but women's fashion! 13 m² (yes, it's the smallest store in Caen!) dedicated to women's ready-to-wear, accessories and lingerie. You can dress from head to toe! Carefully selected bohemian-chic pieces, in small quantities but with a wide choice and arrivals every 15 days, all at affordable prices!

An address to cherish: the last specialized haberdashery in the city center! Sophie's kingdom of buttons has been a fixture in the town for 25 years now! With no fewer than 10,000 references, you're sure to find what you're looking for, not just buttons! From wools and fabrics to the famous Singer sewing machines (Sophie is a representative of the famous brand), it's a veritable Ali Baba's cave! Jacquard, rice stitch, wheat stitch, one stitch forward, one stitch back. It really makes you want to get back into knitting and sewing!

Passionate about fashion, in 2021 Jenny opened Bohemia in the heart of downtown Montreal. A small, cozy boutique decorated with love. As you pass in front of the window, you fall in love! We can say that Jenny knows what she's doing and offers tasteful bohemian and girly looks, in short, the desire to push the door becomes irresistible. The little plus of the store: new items every week, presented in beautiful looks complete with energy and good humor on the social networks of the store. We love it!

Change your outlook on the world of optics and its services with this independent boutique. In a warm and welcoming environment, the optician with 15 years' experience takes the time to guide you towards the pair of eco-responsible glasses that will suit both your personality and your values. In fact, this responsible optician offers 1,000 references, 80% of which are Made in France. You'll find collections from Lafont, Saint-James and Halambyk, all of whom make wooden eyewear. Go for it with your eyes closed - well, not literally!

If you read the Petit Futé 10 years ago, Carine was already listed in our guide! After moving from Caen to Bayeux, we find her pink silhouette at the boutique entrance. Her advice hasn't changed, and neither has her smile. But there has been one change: her address. It's now rue Saint-Pierre that you'll find what you're looking for in her women's ready-to-wear boutique. T-shirts, F.A.M. jeans, colorful dresses, pretty bags, jewelry and shoes. Bonus: non-stop opening, perfect for shopping between 12 and 2pm!

You have to know the address to find this atypical place. Hidden under a porch in the Place Saint-Sauveur, Sabine's boutique is a good place to be. She offers her fashion favourites at very reasonable prices. Used to ephemeral boutiques, Sabine now presents her vision of women's ready-to-wear in this unique place. To do this, she hunts for new items, her selection often comes from Italy but her collections are increasingly leaning towards the made in France. Sabin Your Closet is also an online store for clothes and accessories.
