by Montmartre is known for its picturesque cafes and super cute stores. If you are in the market for authentic Parisian vintage, you have to stop by the By Flowers vintage store.
From hats to shoes, By Flowers has an ever-changing selection of classic Parisian vintage options in a cozy shop a stone’s throw away from Sacré-Cœur. The perfect escape for any tourist with their family and for locals alike.
By Flowers is possibly the most underrated vintage store in Paris for two reasons: (1) the great selection and (2) the fabulous, welcoming owners. Every time I stop in here there is something new and different. On my last visit to the neighborhood, I went by twice the same weekend and they already had new items!

About By Flowers Vintage Shop
By Flowers is a cozy shop located at 86 R. des Martyrs, 75018 Paris, nearby the Abbesses and Pigalle metro stops. This cozy shop doesn’t look like much from the outside, but on the inside, you’ll find excellent vintage finds.

The owners are wonderful too. You can take your time pursuing their collection and trying on potential finds. You will feel welcomed and helped throughout your whole experience here. The prices are typical of a great vintage shop, but the selection is superb!
The owners update their Instagram frequently too, you can check it out here and see if something catches your eye before you go! I’d recommend going fast if you like something that they post. Chances are, someone else will run to scoop it up too!
A lot of visitors to Paris go to the “kilo shop” and don’t get to experience true vintage shopping. If you go to a kilo shop chances are the clothes aren’t great quality and are super washed out. You will find the opposite here. By Flowers curates their selection to only the best and most unique items for its customers.
Ditch the kilo shops and stop by the By Flowers vintage store. You’ll walk away happy with full bags and a full heart.
