A shopping evening with Lorena Vergani and Leonard Paris to get the summer off to a good start

It’s hard to refuse a shopping party, especially when the invitation comes from Lorena Vergani and Leonard Paris. Lorena Vergani, a perfect example of a cosmopolitan personality who has made the capital his home town and playground, is today an emblematic figure in Parisian cultural life. She is also the companion of the gallery owner Emmanuel Perrotin. With Leonard Paris, a historic French house known for its floral motifs and light fabrics defended by its founder Daniel Tribouillard, Lorena shares an elegant and feminine style and a love for art and creation. So what could be better than to celebrate the arrival of the beautiful days at the 48 rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré boutique in the presence of its artistic director Christine Phung? The designers Chloé Perrin and Melanie Huynh, for example, left with a watercolour painted in front of their eyes with the orchid – the symbol of the house – and a pretty wink to summer already well established in the City of Light.
