Twins is first and foremost a duo of “Parisian globetrotter” twins, who, failing to find THE ideal concept store, created their “lifestore”.
A hybrid place where confidential fashion, easy-going design and coffee shop invite us to share their sense of hospitality.
Once through the door of 7, rue Béranger, you feel like you have been teleported into an idealized “home”. A cleverly decorated apartment, where two “friends” are waiting for us to transform a simple shopping trip into an experience in its own right.
Everything has been thought of to create an authentic and accessible atmosphere where we happily linger in front of their choice of fashion and decoration brands synonymous with the “French” style, because from design to creation or place of production, all the selected labels have a French origin.
Want to extend the exchange or sit down to work? The two accomplice brothers offer us a place at the counter where we can enjoy a coffee roasted by Terres de Café and pastel de nata as a warm and family reminder of the Portugal where they come from. If you don't have time, you can also shop their trends on their e-shop.

Victor Hugo, the writer with a thousand talents
Born in 1802, Victor Hugo became a social writer, a playwright, a poet, a novelist and a romantic designer. Nicknamed the man-ocean then the man-century, he is a political figure and a committed intellectual. He found success with Notre-Dame-de-Paris in 1831 and with Les Misérables in 1862.
The best tattoo parlors in Marais
Tattooing, an age-old practice, has long been the prerogative of convicts, dock workers, the underworld and sailors.
