Ronnie and Katie - always available but never intrusive - will point you in the right direction, or assist in finding exactly what you are looking for among well sized, well ordered racks of designer evening wear; custom fur coats and jackets; day dresses and suit ensembles; and tops, sweaters and jackets with labels such as Lanvin, Chanel, Cavalli, Dior and Pucci, to name just a fractional few. And this luxe boutique carries fashionable designer pieces in all sizes, from smalls to extra larges.
The shop highlights only the best designer items from Paradise Lost’s most fashionable consignors, including names like Cartier, Tiffany, Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Hermes, Gucci, and Prada, with special focus on limited editions and other one-of-a-kind items.
Accessories abound among hats, belts, shawls and scarves, kid gloves and designer sunglasses with such names as Tom Ford, Escada, Kokin, Gucci and more.
Upon entering, one is greeted by three elegantly attired mannequins (the boutique’s “Three Graces”), beyond which, a wall of Chanel bags, shoes, scarves, and jewelry
The shop’s six foot shoe wall is bursting with showstopping designer shoes, with names like Jimmy Choo, Louboutin, and Cavalli.
And - when you have found exactly what you have been searching for - you can pick up a gift for a favourite girlfriend or for the man in your life. Whether a Strongwater frame, an Hermes necktie, a delicate Limoges Box or a Rolex watch - you can make someone else very happy too!

A Michelin Star for Blue Bay Restaurant On October 5th, 2015, seven Great Chefs from the Société des Bains de Mer Group made a date to come and blow out the 10 candles on the Monte-Carlo Bay Hotel & Resort’s birthday cake: an encounter at the summit of fine dining with Michelin-starred Marcel Ravin as conductor-in-chief of this celebration on the slightly off-the wall concept, “the Drunch”. The “Drunch”, the brainchild of Michelin-starred Chef Marcel Ravin, somehow resulted in an unequalled blend of the influences of the Caribbean and the spirit of the Riviera. Thanks to the talent and creativity of Chef Marcel Ravin, the Monte-Carlo Bay Hôtel & Resort now boasts membership in the club of elite gourmet restaurants. This honor recognizes the efforts made by Executive Chef Marcel Ravin, who accepted the challenge from General Manager Sergio Mangini to earn a Michelin star. Originally from the Caribbean, Marcel Ravin has been brilliantly running the restaurant Blue Bay in Monaco since 2005. This first Michelin star for the gourmet restaurant Blue Bay, which celebrated its 10th anniversary this year, is an honor and the harbinger of a creative future, propelling the gastronomic restaurant among the top restaurants in Monaco.
