Cannes all year round
Luxury boutiques in Cannes
Cannes is not a luxury destination only in May. All year round, between the palace hotels of the Croisette and the shopping streets of the centre, the town offers a fashion scene that is rare on the French Riviera.
Great international houses, couture, designers and concept stores: each district has its own way of doing luxury shopping.
Here is how to find your way, and where to discover pieces you won't see everywhere.
The Croisette, showcase of the great houses
Along the bay, between the Palais des Festivals and Port Canto, the Croisette lines up the boutiques of the great international houses, from Chanel to Dior, Louis Vuitton and Hermès, at the foot of the legendary Carlton, Martinez and Majestic hotels. People come as much for the setting as for the shopping: the seafront promenade is part of the experience.
This is the place for iconic pieces and full brand collections. During major events, the Film Festival above all, it is best to go in the morning to avoid the crowds; our guide to luxury shopping during the Festival explains the strategy.
The town centre, couture and designers
A few streets back from the sea, around rue d'Antibes, luxury takes another form: multi-brand boutiques and concept stores selecting designers you won't find anywhere else in Cannes. This is where Le Shop 17 stands, on rue Notre-Dame, with evening couture by Stéphane Rolland, hats by Maison Michel, bags by Jérôme Dreyfuss and tailoring by Dice Kayek.
The advantage of this kind of boutique: a tight selection, pieces in very small quantities and personal advice, far from the crowds of the big chains. Learn more in our guide to concept stores and designers in Cannes.

Our tips for a luxury shopping day
Start in the town centre in the morning, when boutiques are calm and teams are available, then head down to the Croisette for lunch on a terrace. For an important piece, an evening dress or a bag, a personal shopping appointment lets you prepare everything in advance. And for Italian or Belgian brands, a look at our size guide avoids unpleasant surprises.
