Galleries Lafayette only respond one
month out to your reservation. They
ask your nationality & your hotel
while in Paris. I was there last
week w/my reserv. believing it was a
"hot" ticket and noone else appeared
to have said reserv.
Also, folks, there is a fashion show
at Printemps at 10 a.m. on Tuesdays
which is right next door to Galleries
Lafayette Por Homme.

I'm also trying to get tickets for the June 1 fashion show at GL -- no word back after 3 weeks... hoping since I'm about in the 1 month window now - i'll hear back. If so, guess I'll see cb and mrkindallas there! Anyone know if small children are OK? We're trying to get tickets for my mom, self and my 4yo dd. CB - pls post if you hear back and then i'll email for 3rd time.

I did the GL fashion show a year ago. I really don't think most small children are going to like it. The older couple near me got up and walked out. It was VERY loud and that upset them. (Their daughter who was closer to my age stayed and took notes) It was a fun show, but not something I can imagine my four year old niece liking at all LOL!

CarolA-thanks for sharing your experience. can you tell me more about it - other than very LOUD? For some reason, i can envision my DD really having fun going along - she loves to dressup, try on clothes that scare me, and prance around in heels!! going to be a handful as she gets older i think!

VeeBee, I did get a confirmation e-mail today. However, I did ask for a reservation for 4, and they sent me a confirmation for 2. Sooo, am not sure about that... I sent another request for 4, but if only 2 are possible, my daughters will just go. I'm sure my husband would not be too sorry to miss it!

cb - thanks for letting me know. If i don't hear by tomorrow - i'll resend my request. Assume you used the GL website link?

I did use the website. They reconfirmed my reservation for 4 today! Good luck!
