History of the Boutique

Joe Parrino, Sr. opened Fleur de Paris in 1980 to be a world-class boutique for special occasions, such as weddings, balls, luncheons, Kentucky Derby, Royal Ascot and the Academy Awards, focused on one-of-a-kind couture designs. Fleur de Paris may be the only designer that offers its couture customer the pattern to her original design, to ensure that it is never duplicated. The store also offers ready-to-wear clothes by designers from around the world.

Fleur de Paris chapeaux are justifiably famous in the world of hat-lovers. Many customers from the world over travel to this corner of Royal Street specifically for their hats and special occasion ensembles. Artistically crafted accessories include antique Austrian crystals that have been restrung and hand-knotted, antique style jewelry, as well as beaded and silk evening bags.

From everyday dresses to haute couture, silk and linen, cotton and lace, and uncommonly elegant fashion all gather together here in the tradition of the finest European designers. Joe Parrino and son Joseph welcome all women who appreciate a wardrobe inspired by romance, femininity and value.
