162 sqm Boutique on Rue de Passy, Paris 16th.
tl;dr
- Space
- A 162 sqm (1,744 sq ft) three level retail boutique for rent on Rue de Passy in the 16th arrondissement of Paris, with an 80 sqm street level ground floor, a 53 sqm first basement and a 29 sqm second basement. The character is classic Right Bank boutique retail, with an eight metre frontage facing one of the city's established shopping streets.
- Best For
- Strongest fit is a multi week pop up store or temporary retail takeover using the full ground floor and window display. Also available for hire as a fashion showroom with buyer preview and wholesale appointment rooms in the basements, a product launch or collection preview open to the street, a sample sale with stock held below ground, and a brand shoot location or content studio between selling periods.
- Standout Features
- Eight metre frontage with a dedicated window display bay sized for full retail merchandising, plus 82 sqm of basement across two levels that keeps stock, fitting and appointment areas entirely out of customer sightlines. Multiple entrances allow separate press and public flow on the same day, the ground floor sits flush at street level for move-in ready deliveries without a ramp, and a dedicated stock room and WC are already fitted so the space is vetted by Fashion Week Venues as usable without structural work.
- Location
- Métro La Muette (Line 9) and Passy (Line 6) are both roughly four to six minutes on foot, with Trocadéro (Lines 6 and 9) around ten minutes and RER C at Boulainvilliers nearby, in postcode 75116. Rue de Passy is a dense, affluent shopping street with Repetto, Bobbies, Uniqlo and Monoprix within 150 metres, so guests arrive into an established retail run and crews can hire loading windows on a calm, pavemented frontage.
- Availability
- Minimum rental period is 12 months as a standard lease, though shorter pop up and activation windows can be negotiated on request with the landlord through our team. Day rate is brief-based pricing rather than fixed, and we advise eight to twelve weeks lead time in Paris, extending to four months for the March and late September fashion week windows plus the pre-Christmas retail peak when spaces at this address typically book first.
- How to Book
- Submit an enquiry with your dates, format and build requirements and we reply within 24h with confirmed availability and a costed proposal, with no charge until confirmed. Permit paperwork, retail staffing and fit-out coordination are handled by the Fashion Week Venues team on the brand's behalf. Request availability for Rue de Passy now.

the neighbourhood
Heritage French houses, quiet-luxury labels, beauty and skincare brands, and family-run ateliers make up the working commercial fabric along Rue de Passy and the streets feeding off it. Within a two minute walk of this address you have Repetto, Bobbies, Le Chocolat Alain Ducasse, Librairie Fontaine on the Annonciation side, and Maison Sarah Lavoine down towards Place de Passy, with the Majestic Passy cinema anchoring the eastern end and Monoprix pulling steady daily traffic. Above the shopfronts sit accountants, private client advisors, small design practices and a scattering of by-appointment showrooms that never advertise. Rue de l'Annonciation, pedestrianised and food-led, feeds shoppers back up onto Passy through Rue Guichard, while Avenue Paul Doumer and Rue de la Tour carry the residential trade. Palais Galliera and the Musée Yves Saint Laurent sit a short ride east, which is why fashion clients keep circling back to this arrondissement when we shortlist spaces in Paris for autumn calendars.
Brands pick Passy over the Marais and Rue Saint-Honoré because the audience here converts rather than photographs. The Haut Marais showroom belt around Rue de Saintonge and Rue Charlot delivers density and editor proximity during fashion week, and Saint-Germain delivers prestige, but both come with saturation, higher square metre costs, and a walk-in crowd that browses without buying. In our experience placing brands in the 16th, the tradeoff is straightforward: you lose the fashion week critical mass and the spontaneous editorial drop-in, and you gain a local customer base with genuine spend, a calmer arrival experience for buyer appointments, and better value per square metre for a 162 sqm three level footprint. Transport works in your favour: Passy on line 6, La Muette on line 9, Trocadéro for the Right Bank hotel cluster, and RER C at Boulainvilliers for Roissy and Orly connections. Run the numbers against other districts with the city compare tool before committing to a central address by default.
Arriving here for a press day feels closer to a private appointment than a retail launch, and that is the point. The block moves in two clear rhythms: a school run and errand flow from around 8.30 until midday, then a slower, higher intent afternoon window from roughly 15.00 to 19.00 when local residents, nannies, and returning professionals walk the length of Passy. Saturday is the strongest single day. Evenings empty out early and Sundays are partial. The eight metre frontage and window display give you genuine presence on a street where most units are narrow, and the two basement levels handle stock, styling and fittings without cluttering the ground floor, which we usually treat as pure presentation space supported by retail staffing who speak French first. Be honest with yourself on fit: this is not a location for streetwear drops, queue culture, tourist volume, or brands whose entire model depends on unplanned foot traffic and viral street visibility.

the neighbourhood
Notre-Dame-de-Grace de Passy is a Roman Catholic Church located at 10 Rue de l'Annunciation in the 16th arrondissement of Paris. The old church was built in 1672 and rebuilt on a larger scale in the 1850s. The exterior and nave are very austere and modern, while the walls of the choir are entirely covered with murals.

who it suits
Brand Scale
This space fits an established mid-market to upper-premium brand with a 10 to 50 person team, four or more years of trading, and either an existing French wholesale base or a proven DTC customer list in Paris. The 12 month minimum term is the deciding factor: this is not a three day fashion week venue, it is a committed retail footprint. The 80 sqm ground floor with eight metres of frontage carries the selling and the brand story, while the 53 sqm and 29 sqm basement levels absorb stock, fitting, and back of house so the shop floor stays clean. Brands at this stage typically find that the split across three levels only pays off when they have the inventory depth and the staffing to run it properly. Where we see mismatches is when a young label with one seasonal drop takes a full year on Rue de Passy and cannot fill the basements or justify the frontage. Equally, a global flagship needing 400 sqm and a double height ceiling will find 162 sqm across three floors restrictive. If a shorter commitment is the requirement, other spaces in Paris are better matched.
Aesthetic Fit
A refined, quietly luxurious visual identity works best here: elevated ready to wear, cashmere and knitwear, leather goods, fine jewellery, children's premium wear, skincare, and home fragrance. The 16th arrondissement customer reads restraint as quality, and the neighbours confirm it, with Repetto, Bobbies, Maison Sarah Lavoine and Le Chocolat Alain Ducasse setting the tone within a few minutes' walk. Warm timber, pale plaster, brass detailing and considered lighting will sit correctly against a street level boutique with a single dedicated window display. What does not work is loud streetwear, neon and vinyl graphic build outs, or club style activations with heavy sound. This street is residential above retail and the audience skews family, professional and habitual rather than trend driven, so a disruptive shopfront reads as out of place rather than provocative. Brands wanting a full fit out in a quieter register should plan the branded store design around one strong window narrative rather than volume of signage.
Best Use Cases
First choice is a long-run branded boutique or extended pop-up shop: the 12 month minimum, stock room, WC and 80 sqm street level floor give a brand a genuine temporary retail space that behaves like a permanent store. Second is a Paris market entry test store for an international label, since the address, the eight metre frontage and steady local footfall produce clean sell through data without the risk of a ten year lease. Third is a combined retail and fashion showroom model, where the ground floor trades and the 53 sqm first basement hosts wholesale appointments and collection previews behind closed doors. Fourth is a product launch or brand activation with a press day component, using multiple entrances to separate guest arrival from operational access. Fifth is a seasonal sample sale or archive sale, with the 29 sqm second basement holding overflow stock and the window display driving passing traffic. Sixth is a content studio and retail experience hybrid, where the lower levels shoot campaign and social content between trading hours.
Budget Signal
This sits in the upper-mid tier for Paris retail, below Rue Saint-Honoré or Avenue Montaigne but firmly above Marais side streets and the outer arrondissements. In our experience the profile that gets the most from this space is a brand comparing the true annual cost of a Passy boutique against a year of repeated short-term activations elsewhere, because the per month figure here undercuts prime commercial locations on a like for like sqm basis while delivering a comparable customer profile. Against hotel event spaces you gain daily trading and a real shopfront rather than a one night footprint. Against co-working or shared pop-up formats you gain full brand control, exclusive frontage, and 82 sqm of basement storage that shared venues never provide. The trade off is commitment: this is a 12 month decision, so model the fit out amortisation across the full term before enquiring and run the numbers through our budget calculator first.
