    Highlight of my trip!

    Being a fashion major, I feel like I died and went to fashion heaven! Sure to find something that blows you away! Such a magical place with treasures like Audrey Hepburn's hat collection and pieces that belonged to Marie Antoinette. Building itself is breathtaking!

    A nice treasure

    The museum is small but beautiful. Must see the Margiela exhibition. Those that are complaining about the price and not knowing the designers is ridiculous. It's not expensive and people should do their research on what they're paying and seeing. Duh.

    Go see the Martin Margiela's retrospective while it lasts

    Palais Galliera isn't large. Neither is the Martin Margiela's retrospective. But you can have a glimpse of all the designer's collections (from Spring-Summer 1989 to Spring-Summer 2009) and see what a talent he's. The exhibits include some of his iconic pieces. Highly recommended, especially for...More

    This is the neighborhood of grand and impressive
    Haussmann-designed apartments and buildings. National
    museums overlook the Eiffel Tower and embassies fill
    the avenues and streets. Locals head to the butcher,
    florist, or bakery on their daily rounds amidst luxury
    and splendor, all with a view over Paris and its most
