LONGCHAMP LANDS IN MYKONOS: A Chic Cycladic Escape

There’s a new reason to fall in love with Mykonos this summer—and it comes wrapped in French elegance and Cycladic charm. Longchamp, the iconic Parisian maison, has officially landed on the island, unveiling an exclusive new boutique that blends Mykonian spirit with timeless Parisian sophistication.

In the Heart of Chora
Tucked away in the vibrant heart of Chora, near the island’s old port, the boutique is more than just a shopping destination—it’s a summer sanctuary. With whitewashed walls, handcrafted ceramic details, and natural materials like wicker and wood, the space feels like a refined Cycladic home, infused with Longchamp’s unmistakable identity. Think lime-washed coolness, breezy sophistication, and soft seating in the maison’s signature green that invites you to take a pause from the heat of the island.

French Heritage Meets Island Soul
As you step inside, you’re immediately greeted by the maison’s most iconic pieces: the structured lines of Le Roseau and Le Foulonné, displayed with effortless elegance. Wander further, and you’ll discover the Le Pliage collection reimagined for island life—presented in a Cycladic-inspired library that showcases fresh new hues like brick, moka, and celadon. The Épure line, minimal yet refined, brings just the right amount of elevated flair for those sunset strolls or candlelit dinners by the sea.

A Touch of Mykonos Magic
To celebrate the opening, Longchamp has introduced an exclusive collector’s piece: Le Pliage du Monde x Mykonos, a limited-edition tribute to the island’s beloved symbol—Petros the Pelican. This whimsical and meaningful creation captures the soul of Mykonos and makes for a perfect memento of summer days spent by the Aegean. Available only at the Mykonos boutique, it’s a true ode to local heritage with a French twist.

A Boutique with a Sweet Surprise
And because summer in Mykonos should be all about joy, from July 19 and throughout August weekends, an adorable ice cream cart will be waiting outside the boutique, ready to treat visitors with something sweet and refreshing. A playful detail that perfectly reflects Longchamp’s spirit: authentic, optimistic, and full of joie de vivre.

A Few Words About Longchamp

Founded in 1948, Longchamp started as a leather-sheathed pipe maker and has since grown into a global symbol of effortless French style. Under the creative direction of Sophie Delafontaine, the brand continues to redefine what it means to be a modern Parisian woman—fluid, free-spirited, and cosmopolitan. With a strong focus on craftsmanship, sustainability, and family heritage (now in its fourth generation of Cassegrain family ownership), Longchamp remains one of the few luxury houses that truly marries tradition with innovation.

So whether you're strolling the stone-paved alleys of Chora or soaking in the sun on Psarou beach, make sure to stop by the Longchamp boutique—a serene hideaway where Paris meets the Aegean, and summer gets a little more chic.
