Avenue Louise - Boulevard de Waterloo: Glamour & Elegance in Brussels
Paris has the Champs Elysées, Barcelona the Ramblas, New York has Fifth Avenue and Brussels has avenue Louise and boulevard de Waterloo!
In the 19th century all the great capitals had their promenade for the middle classes. Léopold II, Belgium's "Builder King", created his own and called it after his eldest daughter.
Since then, avenue Louise has become the muse of designers. As you draw closer to the "Louise bottleneck", Belgian and new labels take precedence.
International labels are widely represented alongside these 100% pure Belgian products. Opposite boulevard de la Toison d'Or is boulevard Waterloo, which indisputable has become the most stylish in Brussels.
The biggest fashion houses have chosen this area, lined with mansions, as home to their exclusive stores.
