This lovely small street runs through part of central Lausanne, with Rue de La Paix on the east and Place Saint-François on the west. One of the city’s premier high-end shopping locations, the street is bustling with cafes, shops, alleyways, charming buildings, and cobblestones. It’s a pleasure to walk through and a nice place to rub elbows with locals. Many stores on this street, which is one of the oldest in the city, sell goods from international luxury brands.
Launched in 1987, Maniak is a cavernous clothing store that carries mostly trendy workwear and costumes and costume accessories. There’s an alternative rock hipster vibe to the place, and it’s just as likely to stock work wear as it is to carry band t–shirts and leather jackets. Think Carhartt and Schott jackets, Dickie’s jeans and shirts, and Freitag shoulder bags. Several rooms are dedicated to costumes, where visitors can find masks, feather boas, faux leather, angels wings, and pretty much anything one would want to create any kind of costume.
Manor (La Placette) est l'un des supermarchés du centre ville. On y trouve de tout, des habits aux fournitures de bureau et des disques à l'électroménager. Une librairie généraliste dépend de l'ensemble. Au sous-sol, un supermarché bien fourni propose des produits frais (poissons, viandes, légumes) et des produits de consommation courante. Il existe également un bureau Ticket Corner qui vend les billets pour divers spectacles dans toute la Suisse.

Métropole is a shopping center in downtown Lausanne and the largest of its kind in the city and the surrounding region. White-walled, air-conditioned passageways here run past 50 shops on five storeys, including a supermarket, health and manicure salons, pet shops, and dozens of others. The facility is vast and contemporary, and it occasionally coordinates promotions with parallel community activities like circuses, sporting events, and concerts. The retail mall hosts Recyclub, a series of free courses for families on reducing domestic trash.
Il y a beaucoup de grands magasins à Lausanne, mais celui-ci se distingue par le fait qu'il est un peu plus haut de gamme que les autres. Tout comme Globus, le bâtiment en tant que tel n'est pas très attirant. Une fois à l'intérieur pourtant, vous vous sentez comme à la maison. C'est comme si vous étiez entrés chez quelqu'un. Le magasin est d'une élégance subtile et parvient tout de même à vous rappeler que vous êtes là pour acheter. Vous y trouverez des vêtements de stylistes comme Max Mara, Armani, ou encore Agnès B., ce qui devrait satisfaire toutes les tranches d'âge.
Charles-Emile Moinat is an antique dealer and interior design store that has been a family business for several generations. The store, which is inside a pretty building near the waterfront of Lac Lèman, has an impressive collection of antiques including beds, clocks, outdoor furniture, lighting, paintings, mirrors, and many one-of–a-kind items. There a sort of regal elegance to the shop and the aesthetics of the furniture. Visitors are more likely to find a sophisticated 19th Century former family heirloom than a mid-century gem. The store draws antique hunters and designers form Lausanne and abroad, and also offers interior design, carpet and curtain installation, and picture hanging services.
This gallery calls itself a “cultural concept store” that mixes modern design with contemporary art, and carries an impressive collection of 20th Century furniture, lighting, and vintage design.

There are also exclusive pieces from top designers, and licensed recreations of 20th Century design icons.
