PARIS, LA Magazine - " From City To City "


PARIS, LA is an independent bi-annual magazine based in Paris, and edited in English. The editorial line aims to establish a creative path between the two cities and by extension between France & USA. PARIS, LA covers contemporary culture content in direct connection with fashion, art, writing, photography, music, and cinema. The magazine features interviews, portraits and photo essays on, with and by artists we truly love and want to support.
PARIS, LA was founded by editor and creative director Dorothée Perret (former Purple director 2003-2007) at the end of the year 2008.



"PARIS, LA is born of shared perspectives. It’s a project, like a love story, that comes from the feeling of being in one place, thinking about another. A place between two cities, between scenes, between people, that exists only in the space of our imagination. In Paris, dreaming of the Pacific. Speaking French in LA. And it’s as true as a clear blue sky above us."
