The 2019-opened Galeries Lafayette on the Champs-Élysées is located in one of the avenue's grandest art deco buildings (1931), with marble columns and wrought-iron girders. Although smaller than the main Haussmann store, it is undoubtedly more modern, with a layout specifically tailored to today's shoppers, a free personal stylist service (no minimum purchase) and a basement gourmet emporium.
