Concept
You love fashion and you’re looking for inspiration? You just really want to treat yourself and move forward by judiciously upgrading your wardrobe? Once Upon A Time is offering city-trips in two of the world’s most fashion-forward cities: Paris, clearly the fashion capital of the world, and Brussels, the European capital on a very human scale, recognised for its Belgian designers and creativity in general… Over the course of two days, you’ll be guided by a fashion stylist who will shower you with highly personalised advice, as well as expanding your horizons.
We’ll visit original boutiques, young designers’ workshops, surprising little shops but also exhibitions, emblematic places and other locations that are off the beaten track. Once Upon A Time’s Fashion Tours are, however, more than just city trips. They are unique experiences that you can share with others in a small group of up to 6 people. They’re unique in the sense that you fill out a questionnaire before embarking, so that everything can be tailored to your specifications. And in order for you to fully enjoy the experience, Once Upon A Time will take care of everything, whether that’s making reservations at a great restaurant, booking tickets for that not-to-be-missed exhibition and, of course, your stay at one of the coolest hotels in town.
Customise your tour
We’re all divergent in our own ways and Once Upon A Time has, therefore, prepared 4 different programs, adapted to a variety of styles and requirements: two Fashion Tours in Paris and two in Brussels. Choose the one that suits you best or individualise it even more! Yes, we do offer a number of options adapted to your wishes and your budget. If you’d rather partake in this experience by yourself, with your significant other or with a few close friends, we are always there to further assist you in getting it just right! All you need to do is determine the length of your trip, the number of people who’ll be joining in and the program, which we can always improve on together. That’s it, we take care of the nitty-gritty details for you.
Whichever you choose, you’re guaranteed to go home bubbling with new ideas, quality pictures from your make-over, interesting addresses and a bunch of unforgettable memories.
