While Paris celebrated its Champions League victory, the Maisons du Monde store on Wagram Avenue was entirely looted during the night. Not a single item was left untouched, every piece of furniture, every cushion, every candle was taken.

Despite the destruction, the brand responded swiftly. The store has already reopened, thanks to what it described as the dedication and composure of its staff. The company acknowledged the gravity of the incident but subtly noted that the thieves were seemingly drawn by more than material goods. 'We thought we were selling furniture. We were obviously selling much more than that: inspiration,' the statement read.
The message, while condemning the act of looting, underscored a broader point: 'style is not stolen, it is lived.' It reflected a tone of resilience and subtle pride in the influence their designs hold, even in times of turmoil.
Maisons du Monde took the opportunity to thank its teams and to welcome customers back, this time, with an open invitation to 'celebrate in style, without breaking in.' The brand's statement closed with an affirmation of continuity: the Wagram store remains a symbol of enduring taste and creativity, no matter the chaos that surrounds it.
