TLC Paris Concierge note: Come for the selection rather than a polished luxury boutique atmosphere. Thanx God I'm a V.I.P. is best explored without rushing, with designer labels alongside more accessible vintage pieces.

Founded in 1994 by Sylvie Chateigner, Thanx God I'm a V.I.P. has an interesting history connecting fashion with the Parisian music and nightlife scene.

The selection includes clothing and accessories from celebrated fashion houses such as Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent, Christian Dior, Hermès, Lanvin, Alaïa and Burberry.

The boutique is situated in the 10th arrondissement, within walking distance of Place de la République and Canal Saint-Martin. The surrounding neighbourhood offers an interesting contrast to the luxury shopping districts of central Paris, with independent boutiques, casual restaurants, cafés and a lively local atmosphere.
After exploring the store, visitors can continue towards Quai de Valmy and Quai de Jemmapes along Canal Saint-Martin, or discover the nearby streets around Jacques Bonsergent and Rue du Château d'Eau.

For TLC Paris visitors interested in luxury vintage shopping in Paris, Thanx God I'm a V.I.P. offers a substantial collection with a long-standing connection to the city's fashion culture.
