Fashion Street / Opera / Grignan Street
A stone's throw from Centre Bourse, the shopping center of the Old Port, Marseille also has its own street dedicated to fashion, and in case there was any doubt, just look at its name. In fact, it's Rue de la Tour, unofficially renamed Rue de la Mode in 1997. If you love shopping, this is the "trendy" corner of the Phocaean city where you can find designer boutiques and the most elaborate brands.
Between Place Charles de Gaulle, Place de l'Opéra, and Rue Sainte, the area is full of unique small shops, concept stores, and original boutiques. You'll find jewelry, designer clothes, decorative objects, and various accessories. Chic and trendy are the best words to describe this little fashion corner in the heart of Marseille.
Despite this, the neighborhood has managed to preserve its traditional shops. It also houses many hotels, bars, and restaurants. All of this creates a unique atmosphere, distinctly Marseille.
Here are some stores you will certainly enjoy:
La Sardine à Paillettes : fashion accessories, children's clothing. 9 rue de la Tour
Donna : women's clothing. 7 rue de la Tour
Diable noir : men's clothing. 5 rue de la Tour
Manon Martin : Jewelry. 10 rue de la Tour
Casablanca : clothing, accessories by designer. 6 rue de la Tour
Marianne Cat : men's and women's fashion, leather goods, perfumes, jewelry. 53 rue Grignan.
Frojo : watchmaking, jewelry since 1854. 17, rue Grignan.
