Tucked along the storied Rue Saint-Honoré, Nimette unveils Le Salon, a serene new destination that redefines the art of cultural connection. Dedicated to Japanese craftsmanship and contemporary design, the Paris-based thoughtful concept invites guests into an intimate, appointment-only world where fashion, art, and dialogue intertwine.

Bathed in natural light and imbued with quiet elegance, Le Salon is a space to pause and discover an environment where the tactile beauty of Japanese creation meets Parisian refinement. Within its walls, a handpicked selection of designers such as Anrealage, Taakk, Akiko Aoki, and Osakentaro sits alongside archival pieces from Comme des Garçons, offering an experience that feels both exclusive and deeply personal.

At its core, Le Salon reflects the vision of founder Nima, who describes the project as a bridge between worlds “Nimette was born from a desire to create a bridge between Japan and Paris – a safe and relaxing space where creativity is preserved, celebrated, and reintroduced to a global audience. Le Salon is not only about fashion, but also about community and cultural exchange.”

Marking the beginning of a new chapter, Le Salon will soon host a series of events spanning literature, art, and design — extending the dialogue between Japan and Paris far beyond the realm of fashion. With this opening, Nimette affirms its place as one of the city’s most thoughtful and quietly revolutionary cultural voices.

To mark the debut of Le Salon, Nimette hosted an intimate breakfast during Paris Fashion Week, gathering editors, designers, and close friends of the maison within its serene Rue Saint-Honoré space. Amidst freshly brewed matcha and delicate Japanese pastries, guests explored the inaugural curation between contemporary Japanese design and timeless Parisian refinement. The morning set the tone for Le Salon’s vision as a meeting place where creativity unfolds slowly, with intention and grace.
