Liberty London – Merci Paris – The joining of 2 cool stores

Merci is a wonderful department store opened last year in Paris which has as its Creative Director Marie-France Cohen who is the owner and founder of Bonpoint one of the best French children’s fashion labels.

For this month they have a joint swap shop with Liberty which opened on Tuesday morning featuring an exclusive limited edition collection of fashion and homeware designed by Marie-France Cohen using her favorite Liberty designs selling throughout March.

The Paris store was reportably swamped when it opened with the best items selling out so swift visits to Liberty would seem to be in order, profits will be going to benefit a children’s charity in Madagascar so its all in a good cause too. The fastest selling item is the floral mini suitcase, truly a wondrous item, apparently on the stores opening day on Monday Japanese visitors were buying up to 5 each in different fabrics.
