Fashionistas: Try to remain calm. We know it’s not easy with Paris Fashion Week 2019 (otherwise known as #PFW or #PFW19) just weeks away. All those clothes, all those designers (Lagerfeld, Dior, Vuitton, Valentino, Chanel, Guo Pei, Schiaparelli, the list goes on). It’s enough to make a person crazy. Just remember, though, when the catwalk is over, and the lights go down, you’ll need someplace to spend the night and of course, sit down and post all those incredible Instagram photos. Here are some of our favorite Paris Airbnb homes for Paris Fashion Week.

8. From the Champs-Elysées to Chanel – $1,373 a night
OMG, you are going to look SO GOOD coming out of this Paris Airbnb!!! First of all, you will be right near the Champs-Elysées, which means you’ll be near Avenue Montaigne, one of the most elegant shopping streets in the world, let alone Paris. Think Fendi, Louis Vuitton, Dior, Chanel, Valentino, and even Ralph Lauren.
Not to mention the fact that you’ll be near great shopping on the Champs-Elysées itself (think Ungaro, Fendi, and even the best French macaron place on the planet, Ladurée!). This Paris Airbnb sleeps six within its two bedrooms so why not ask some fashionista friends to join you for PFW? There’s even a terrace from which you can see just the tippy tippy top of the Eiffel Tower!
7. La Vie En Rose (et Vert) – $79 a night
Want a fun, happy, charming little place to reflect your personality and make you feel as if spring has already sprung? This totes adorbs Paris apartment will have you singing “La Vie En Rose” in no time!

Speaking of that, you’ll be within walking distance to the Grand Palais and the Carrousel du Louvre where many major fashion houses show every year. And at $114, this place is a huge bargain!
6. The Glass of Fashion – $950 a night
There’s a lot to unpack here but can we just start with that floor-to-ceiling window? And how much fun is that bubble chair? And the artwork—how cool is that art work? Just the place for a creative spirit to have a great Paris Fashion Week! And the perhaps the greatest part of this is that it’s located in the 14th arrondissement in a charming section of Paris known as “Villa D’Alésia” which used to be where many famous artists (including Matisse!) used to have studios.
It’s relatively unknown and set back from all the bustling streets so you’ll have peace and quiet after a long, chaotic day going from runway to runway. With four bedrooms and four and a half baths, it’s the perfect place to rent with a couple of fashion-minded friends (there are some great street markets nearby and a Japanese garden in the back where you can have BBQs!).
And keep this in mind: this place is ten minutes away from Orly airport so you can be at the airport faster than you can say “couture”!
