store in The Ladies’ Paradise. Both the idea for Zola’s paradise and The Crystal Palace was to inspire and dazzle the consumers into feeling as though the goods were commodities and therefore a priceless necessity. Karl Marx explains this commodity fetishism as ‘a definite social relation between men themselves which assumes here, for them, the phantasmagoric form of a relation between things’ (1976, p.165).
