Following the popular The New Paris, Lindsey Tramuta explores the influence that the women of Paris have on their city's rapidly evolving culture.
The New Parisienne focuses on one of the city's most prominent features, its women. Unveiling the veil of the mythologized Parisian woman—white, slender, always elegant—Lindsey Tramuta demystifies this oversimplified archetype and recreates the women of Paris as they truly are, in all their complexity. The book features 50 activists, creators, educators, visionaries, and subversive figures—such as Leïla Slimani, Lauren Bastide, and Mayor Anne Hidalgo—and reveals Paris as a blossoming cultural center of female power.
Both these women and Tramuta herself suggest favorite destinations and women-owned businesses, including beloved shops, art spaces, bistros, and more. The New Parisienne highlights "Parisian-ness" in all its complexity, emphasizing those who resist tradition, make a name for themselves, and transform the city.
