Opened in 2012, the Docks fashion and design centre is set on the banks of the Seine. The place, nicknamed "the green caterpillar", really looks like the docks, though very modern ones. Its main feature is certainly the exhibitions of famous designers (Comme Des Garcons, Balenciaga), runway shows by young and (yet) unknown fashion designers, showrooms and receptions. You can easily spend a whole day here: start with yoga at Wanderlust, have brunch on the terrace of Moon Roof restaurant overlooking the Seine, visit an exhibition, and after inspecting the boutiques, have a cocktail or two and dance a bit at Nuba (a place by the owners of Baron) or Wanderlust. The Docks are never empty, so come here either in advance or some time after the beginning to avoid the queues.
