Our Saturday night of Fashion Week SS26: a dive into the Parisian nightlife

From 9pm, Thoumieux with its new night-time concept: the Record Bar. Nestled upstairs in the legendary 7ᵉ arrondissement brasserie, this confidential bar offers a subtle mix of signature cocktails and old-school vinyl. We come here for an intimate, vibrant moment, between before and after, in an atmosphere that’s both warm and musical.

The transformation is clear: the mansion that used to host lunches and dinners is now adorned with musical and dancing energy. A fine compromise between brasserie elegance and nightlife effervescence. A true Left Bank nightlife spot, to be tested during Fashion Week.

L’Aventure vs Le Matignon: night-time duel

Adventure: the 16ᵉ’s well-kept secret

Under the aegis of the Beaumarly group, L’Aventure has established itself as a hybrid address: restaurant, club, soon to be 5-star hotel. The place seduces with its hushed ambience, decor designed by Martin Brudnizki and Vincent Darré, and a menu blending French and Japanese inspirations.

But it’s at night that L’Aventure really comes into its own: late opening hours(until 6am), DJ programming and a confidential, festive atmosphere. L’Aventure attracts a discerning clientele, often linked to the fashion and art worlds. Ideal after a fashion show or a discreet dinner.

Le Matignon: the energy of the Golden Triangle

Facing the Jardin des Champs-Élysées, Le Matignon also plays the double restaurant/club card. As soon as night falls, the room transforms and the atmosphere soars: subdued lighting, DJ sets, cocktails and electro beats.

It’s one of the favorite spots of Paris’s golden youth, fashionistas out and about and models passing through. Easy to get to, open until 2am, the Matignon offers a more accessible and festive atmosphere than L’Aventure.
