PARIS — Among a flurry of new accessories boutiques, Barbara Rihl — known for her fun, travel-theme totes — has opened her first flagship at 1 Rue du 29 Juillet, next to Colette.
Rupert Sanderson recently opened his first Paris outpost in the Passage des Deux-Pavillons, bordering Palais Royal. The shoe designer created a special orange python high-heel sandal, dubbed Pamela, for the store, retailing at 765 euros, or about $930 at current exchange.
