In the heart of Paris, Gucci inaugurates the first Gucci Valigeria boutique dedicated to its ever-expanding world of travel.

Located at 229 Rue Saint-Honoré, nestled between Place Vendôme and Jardin des Tuileries, the first permanent Gucci Valigeria boutique is a two-floor space whose interiors draw inspiration from luxury travel during the Belle Époque. Intimate and refined, the décor evokes the atmosphere of an elegant vintage railway carriage as dark walnut furniture and finishes are contrasted by neutral-toned canvas surfaces.

The ground floor maintains the original reconditioned parquet while the floor above features a tartan loom-woven carpet. A capitonnée banquette is overlooked by a brass shelf that recalls the luggage rack of a traditional train and the interiors are complemented by reinterpretations of luggage carts envisioned for window displays.

“Gucci Valigeria is a powerful reminder of our Florentine roots and our timeless craft,” says Marco Bizzarri, President and CEO of Gucci.” It is a symbol of our legacy, reinterpreted through the ages for the travelers and modern-day explorers of every era. Paris’s Rue Saint-Honoré is the perfect location to house our first Gucci Valigeria boutique, offering a portal into our ever-expanding world of travel and discovery."

The Gucci Valigeria boutique showcases a curated selection from Gucci’s travel offering ranging from totes, backpacks, duffles all the wat to garment bags as well as vanity cases, hat cases, suitcases, and trunks—both in soft and hard-sided iterations including aluminum trolleys created in collaboration with Italian luxury luggage-maker FPM Milano.
