To mark its quarter-century anniversary, La Vall\u00e9e Village is stepping up its premium customer experience. All while continuing to cultivate its approach to accessible luxury…<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
For its 25th anniversary, the luxury outlet center <\/b>in Serris (Seine-et-Marne) is innovating in two ways<\/b> to enhance its appeal to its customers. Many French and foreign customers already frequent La Vall\u00e9e Village, which is ideally located near both Paris (accessible by RER) and Disneyland in Marne la Vall\u00e9e.<\/b><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
La Vall\u00e9e Village has just announced the opening in October of a new 300-square-meter VIP area called \u201cThe Apartment\u201d and a boutique called Watchfinder & Co., a global specialist in pre-owned luxury watches.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Even before this, La Vall\u00e9e Village already had plenty to offer.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Its more than 120 boutiques offer previous collections from prestigious brands (from Armani to Zadig & Voltaire, Balenciaga, Christian Louboutin, Givenchy, Guerlain, Jacquemus, Montblanc, Prada, and Sandro<\/b>) at reduced prices (up to 60% off). This positioning has earned it a place in the \u201cBicester Villages\u201d by Value Retail<\/b> group.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Founded in 1992, the British company Value Retail<\/b> designs, develops, and operates luxury outlet villages (Bicester Village, La Vall\u00e9e Village, Fidenza Village<\/b>, etc.) in a dozen countries (Europe, United States, China)<\/b>.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
With its French village charm<\/b> and cobbled streets, La Vall\u00e9e Village is a far cry from the basic collection of retail outlets often found on the outskirts of towns.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
And even the most demanding customers will now find something to make them feel truly privileged. As its name suggests, The Apartment<\/strong>, with its eight private suites<\/strong>, is inspired by a very elegant Parisian apartment<\/strong>, combining custom-made furniture, fine materials, and designer d\u00e9cor with a touch of art.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n But the ultimate feature of the space, accessible free of charge at any time to members of La Vall\u00e9e Village’s loyalty program<\/strong>, is the team of personal shoppers<\/strong> who will do everything they can to transform the shopping experience into an unforgettable moment. Provided their services<\/strong> have been booked by phone or email<\/strong>, they will help privileged customers choose a selection of clothes and accessories based on their style and desires, which they can then try on at their leisure.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n But the Personal Shoppers<\/strong>, all of whom are multilingual and sometimes trained in makeovers and color analysis<\/strong>, can also accompany shopping enthusiasts to the boutiques that are likely to satisfy them. Finally, the most fashion-conscious VIPs can also sign up for workshops organized regularly to complete their knowledge<\/strong> and better find the looks that suit them.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n To complete this tailor-made and comfortable experience, La Vall\u00e9e Village also offers valet parking, a multilingual concierge service, and refreshments to keep everyone’s spirits up!<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n In addition to this VIP area, La Vall\u00e9e Village also unveiled another major first on October 10: the opening of a Watchfinder & Co boutique.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n For the specialist in pre-owned luxury timepieces, part of the Swiss Richemont<\/b> group since 2018, this is a major first in a French outlet mall and its third location in France<\/b>. After opening its historic boutique<\/b> at the end of 2020 at 33 Rue Boissy d’Anglas in Paris’s eighth arrondissement<\/b>, Watchfinder inaugurated a space at Printemps Haussmann<\/b> in mid-2022.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The new store in La Vall\u00e9e Village currently offers more than 400 vintage watches<\/b> (some dating back seven decades!) for sale, all authenticated and bearing the hallmarks of illustrious brands (Breitling, Cartier, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Omega, Rolex, TAG Heuer<\/b>). Potential sellers can also have their timepieces appraised, sold, or exchanged.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n To ensure confidence in every purchase, Watchfinders’ certified watchmakers carry out a 60-step verification process.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n In 2024, the Val d’Europe shopping center,<\/b> home to La Vall\u00e9e Village, is expected to attract around 40 million visitors<\/b>, according to EpaMarne-EpaFrance<\/b>. And it’s a safe bet that La Vall\u00e9e Village’s latest announcements will further enhance the destination’s upmarket image, and probably the average basket size of its customers…<\/p>\n <\/p>\nMultilingual Personal Shoppers and makeover experts<\/h2>\n
