Episode 5 – Designer and textile enthusiast Rebecca Devaney ventures to the famous Marché aux Puces de Saint-Ouen, the sprawling flea market on the northern edge of Paris. There, she meets Paule Deram, whose specialized textile boutique is a treasure trove of vintage fabrics, rare linens, and forgotten textiles with rich histories.

As they explore Paule’s carefully curated collection, Rebecca delves into the stories behind antique French toiles, hand-embroidered pieces, and aged textiles that inspire contemporary design. Their conversation reveals a shared passion for preserving textile heritage and the tactile beauty of fabrics that have stood the test of time.
