Carrousel du Louvre
Drop-off and pick-up on rue de Rivoli or via the Carrousel access depending on crowds. We scout the nearest authorised waiting zone to spare you the 200-metre walk between shows.

Private Chauffeur for Paris Fashion Week
Eight days, a hundred shows, one point of contact.
During Fashion Week, Paris runs on minutes. Our chauffeurs move you from show to show, from the Carrousel du Louvre to the Palais de Tokyo, without ever costing you a front-row seat, with a coordinator tracking your schedule hour by hour. Since 1983 we have carried fashion houses, editors and buyers, their teams and their garment rails.

The context
The event
Paris Fashion Week follows the official calendar of the Fédération de la Haute Couture et de la Mode (FHCM) and brings together more than 100 shows across roughly eight days. Four moments shape the year: Haute Couture in January and July, womenswear in February-March and September-October, menswear in January and June. Shows sometimes run every thirty minutes across venues scattered through the 1st, 8th and 16th arrondissements. The audience is specific: house directors, editors-in-chief, international buyers, contracted models and press officers working against the clock. This is pure transport logistics, where a badly placed car costs a missed entrance.
When
The calendar
January - Haute Couture and menswear
First wave of the year: women's Haute Couture overlaps with menswear ready-to-wear. Cold weather, tight slots, engine-warm waiting between salons.
February-March - Womenswear
The densest week. More than 100 autumn-winter women's shows, short rotations between the Grand Palais Éphémère and private mansions in the Marais.
June - Menswear
Spring-summer menswear season. Presentation evenings, after-shows and house dinners that stretch days well past midnight.
July - Haute Couture
Summer couture, a shorter calendar but highly demanding clients. Heat, tourist traffic, routes scouted in advance.
September-October - Womenswear
Spring-summer womenswear, the other major peak. International buyers and editors in force, with CDG and Le Bourget airport shuttles included.
Method
How we work
01
First contact and schedule
You send us your show schedule, or we build it from the FHCM calendar. A costed quote within 2 hours, fixed price per day or per assignment.
02
Scouting and shuttle plan
We map your venues, identify authorised drop-off zones and calculate real travel times between each show, including seasonal traffic.
03
Dedicated coordinator
A single point of contact reachable around the clock tracks your movements live, adjusts timing when a show runs late and redeploys vehicles.
04
Show day and execution
Chauffeur in position ahead of time, engine ready as you leave, crew and garment rails moved in parallel. You step out, you step in, you keep moving.
Where
The venues we serve
Palais de Tokyo
Avenue du Président-Wilson, in the 16th. High vehicle density during shows: our coordinator times arrival to the minute so the car is there as you step out.
Grand Palais Éphémère
Champ-de-Mars, facing the Eiffel Tower. Filtered, controlled perimeter: we work with accredited access points and the official FHCM drop-off locations.
Hôtels particuliers du Marais et du 8e
Intimate presentations on rue Saint-Honoré, place Vendôme, in the 3rd and 4th. Narrow streets, scarce parking: a V-Class waits as close as possible while a coordinator manages the queue.
Grand Palais
Avenue Winston-Churchill, home to major shows. Heavy press and public turnout: bypass routes prepared for the 2pm to 7pm peaks.

Three seasons working with them now. The coordinator knows our schedule better than we do, and the car is always there as we leave, even when a show runs twenty minutes over.

The fleet
Recommended vehicles
For editors and buyers running between shows, the Mercedes S-Class and the electric EQS offer the quiet and the working space they need. The BMW i7, Audi A8 L and Mercedes-Maybach serve house directors and front-row guests. For teams, garment rails and equipment, the V-Class, EQV and eight-seat Sprinter VIP carry up to an entire wardrobe without creasing it.
Frequently asked questions
How do you handle several shows in a single day?
A dedicated coordinator builds your route from the FHCM calendar, calculates real travel times between venues and positions the vehicle before each show ends. If a show runs late, they adjust the rest of the day and let you know. On-site waiting is included, so you never chase your car.
Can you carry teams and garment rails alongside passengers?
Yes. We run V-Class, EQV and eight-seat Sprinter VIP vehicles in parallel for crews, equipment and clothing rails. Collections travel flat or hanging as needed, crease-free, while the director vehicles carry the guests.
Do your chauffeurs speak English for our international guests?
All our chauffeurs speak English. During Fashion Week a large share of buyers and editors come from London, New York, Milan or Tokyo: welcome, instructions and conversation on the road happen without a language barrier.
Do you book by the day or only per trip?
Both. Most Fashion Week clients choose a full-day assignment with an allocated chauffeur, which guarantees the same car and driver from morning to the final dinner. We also offer single trips at a fixed price quoted in advance.
How far ahead should we book for Fashion Week?
The February-March and September-October weeks fill up fast. We recommend confirming three to four weeks ahead, especially for multi-vehicle assignments with rails. For last-minute requests, write to us: we return a quote within 2 hours and do everything availability allows.
