Paris Muse

Ralph Lauren, the billionaire American fashion designer, has a collection of some 60 stunning automobiles, many of which reside in his massive garage in New York. He’s long had a close relationship with the city of Paris — in 2010 President Sarkozy made him Chevalier de la Légion d’honneur — and now at the Musée des Arts décoratifs you can see 17 of the most legendary automobiles in his collection.

Included in this car fetishist’s dream come true is perhaps the most legendary of the legendary automobiles: a Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic. It’s one of only two in the world and is considered by many the greatest automobile ever.

• Time: 11:00-18:00. Late opening until 21:00 on Thursdays. Closed on Mondays
• Price: Adult rate: €9. Reduced rate: €7.5
