Europe started to be a great way to enlarge the Abercrombie Family, after the United Kingdom (London), Milan and Copenhagen, Abercrombie & Fitch opened last year, the 19 of may 2011 in the Capital of Love and Capital of light : Paris.
I have been following the A&F brands for 3 years now and since then I think the opening of the Abercrombie and Fitch Flagship in Paris was one of the most wanted opening of the brand history.
As C.E.R posted it in 2011 (you can read the post here) the flagship opened at No.23 Champs Elysées in the most touristic and glamourous part of Paris. Next to the richest places and shops, the building, old piece of French architecture has a garden with a 6 days/week gardener to make it look constantly beautiful.

Now A&F is expanding Hollister Co. over France, since the 29 of September 2011 the brand has been opening 7 stores around the country (3 in the Paris Metropolitan area). You must be wondering if they did open an EPIC store yet, but no, I can’t confirm for sure this information, but a big store (probably an epic store) of 1200m² (12,916 sq ft) will be opening during spring 2013 not so far from the current Abercombie & Fitch flagship (15e arrondissement, Beaugrenelle Paris).
In short, since 2011 the A&F expansion in France has been huge, the fans can now enjoy the A&F Hot guys and the hottest Lifeguards in the most important and biggest cities of France, and what I can assure you is that it’s not going to stop!!!
For the next HCO opening in France, rendez vous in january 2013 in Nice!
See you next week guys, same day, same place for new article!
