La Folie is a place that seems to defy the dominant posh and aristocratic expectations of Courchevel. Instead, it gives the snowy town a new, farfetched character, adding to its overall mystique. Its aura is young, carefree and ready to party. Or eat. Or even shop. You can do just about everything at La Folie.
It is located at the heart of Meribel and can be reached only with skis, as it is found among the slopes and snows. This makes this little spot even more popular amongst tourists and locals alike!
The Collection
Although it initially started as a tourist attraction with performances by artists in breathtaking clothing, they soon decided to start their own clothing and accessories as well. As a place amidst the mountains and snow, their collection includes pieces that keep you warm and prepared for the cold weather.
The shop includes garments for both women and men. Find the warmest hoodies and puffed up jackets that are comfortable but never lose the key vibrant energy of La Folie, using bold colours. Spot them easily in a crowd by their logo printed on each of their pieces.
Stylish accessories for the coldest weather can also be found in the shop. This includes cosy hats in an array of shades as caps as well as personal accessories like phone cases to carry a piece of La Folie wherever you go.
Beyond The Fashion
But the magic of place doesn’t stop there–it couldn’t. Visitors are welcome to dive into the gastronomic perspective of their choice, as four restaurants operate during different times of the day and divide their focus. For meat lovers, The Butcher Shop is an obvious choice whilst bookings at the VIP corner can be made for those who want to live the full exclusive nature of the experience and overlook the crowd views. La Fruitiere and La Petite Cuisine operate until early evening for an energy bite.
The latest additional project of La Folie was an order of the Peaky Blinders. At least, that’s what they said when they announced the barber shop named after the successful series. So, for anyone that needs a haircut, you don’t need to space. Make sure to reserve your place at the Peaky Blinders Barber Shop and get ready for some old-England vibes.
Here For A Good Time
Evidently, La Folie is here for a good time proving so by both–the shows and parties organised as well as its consumer services and take on style and food.
For anyone who wants to visit Courchevel and for a while get away from its ski-focus, La Folie is the place to visit and spend hours.
