Panama hats and stylish hats, this 6ᵉ boutique turns heads
What if the most chic accessory of summer 2025 wasn’t a sandal or a bag… but a Panama hat by Borsalino? Behind a discreet façade on Boulevard de Grenelle, a confidential boutique attracts the most discerning Parisian women. Here’s why everyone’s talking about this address.
Borsalino Paris: Tuscan chic, a blend of tradition and attitude
Nestled at 6 boulevard de Grenelle, the Borsalino boutique doesn’t look like much. And yet, it houses one of the last bastions of high-end hat-making expertise. Inside, there’s no excessive stock or flashy window displays: this is silent luxury. Each hat is the product of a thousand-year-old manufacturing process – more than 50 stages, sometimes six months’ work – carried out by hand in the brand’s workshops in Italy, and in Ecuador for the Panama models.
Panama, the fake neutral with stylish power
It’s the model you’ll find on the best-informed heads every summer. Light, structured, airy: the Panama Borsalino is not a classic piece. It’s all about the fit, the line of the brim, the finesse of the hand-woven straw. Some customers come for their first made-to-measure model; others, to add to a discreet collection of unique pieces.
Worn with a white suit, raw jeans or a flowing dress, the Panama Borsalino immediately changes a silhouette. It imposes an allure, a mystery, an elegant tension. No wonder it’s featured on the cover of Vogue Italia or on the benches of the Jardin du Luxembourg.
An address that doesn’t close in August!
Good to know: the boutique remains open throughout the summer. A not inconsiderable detail in Paris, where many luxury addresses take the summer off. So you can have a model fitted, try it on at your leisure under the guidance of the staff – or place an order for an exceptional gift.
The discreet but passionate staff have mastered the art of tailor-made advice. Shapes, sizes, ribbons, materials: we guide you in choosing the hat that will fit you for years to come.
The Borsalino hat isn’t just an accessory. It’s a style manifesto, a discreet echo of the elegance of Lauren Bacall or Bianca Jagger. And the Grenelle boutique? It’s the confidential haunt of stylish Parisian women who reject ephemeral trends.
