What’s Chic in Paris?

Now you may ask yourself what’s chic in the most iconic fashionable city in the world; Paris! I recently went to Paris as of Spring Break 2024 and here is what I noticed:

 

Colors:

The colors in Paris were all very neutral and not super bright! Lots of people were wearing all black outfits ranging from that iconic baggy pants big sweatshirt look to a more sleek skinny jeans and cardigan!

 

Pants:

Jeans, jeans, and more jeans!! Almost everyone I saw was wearing jeans! Ranging from skinny jeans to flare jeans! Most of the places I went I only saw blue jeans but black jeans definitely had an influence there too! 

 

Tops:

So many sweaters!! Sweaters definitely take Paris by storm during the winter! There were lots of different styles of sweaters but the main ones that I saw the most were slightly oversized and more neutral colors than bright ones!

 

Shoes:

Boots are all the rage in Paris right now! Black boots definitely had more of an impression over there rather than bright ones! But just as black boots had quite a big impression, I saw just as many cream boots! The boots that were I saw most people wearing were mostly small and dainty not very big and clumpy! A quick note about sneakers: I noticed a lot of people wearing flatter white sneakers with a hemmed just above-the-ankle pant leg and a statement sock!

 

Jackets:

No hoodies! In all the time that I was in Paris I didn’t see a single person wearing a hoodie, so leave those out of your suitcase! Trench coats were certainly the style over there! I saw far more cream/beige colored trench coats than any other color!!

 

Overall style:

Leave your athletic clothes at home unless you plan to work out!! I didn’t see a single person wearing athletic clothes out on streets! 

The most common feature I noticed is that French women embrace what makes them unique. They do not try to hide it. Rather, they exaggerate and confidently strike out into the world.
