Cool French Clothing Trends to Know in 2025

The effortless edit: what’s trending in Paris and beyond

French fashion isn’t just timeless—it’s always two steps ahead of the curve. In 2025, the style scene in Paris has evolved from classic chic into a more relaxed, sustainable, and subtly rebellious space. Here's what the cool French girls (and guys) are actually wearing this year—and how to get the look without guessing your size.

1. Oversized Tailoring with a Feminine Edge

Blazers and trousers are boxy but never sloppy. The French twist? Cinched waists, rolled-up cuffs, and delicate jewellery to offset the masculinity.

Style it with:

Silk camisoles or ribbed tanks
Loafers or strappy kitten heels
Tousled hair and red lips (always)

Get the look from: Sandro, The Frankie Shop (Paris flagship), Sezane, Isabel Marant

2. 90s-Inspired Minimalism, But Make It Luxe

French brands are perfecting the 90s revival with sleek silhouettes in elevated fabrics.

Trending pieces:

Square-neck slip dresses
Bias-cut skirts
Longline cardigans
Tonal layering in beige, ivory, slate

Top picks: Rouje, Ba&sh, A.P.C., Lemaire

3. Utility, Reworked

Think boiler suits and cargo trousers but in luxe fabrics like cotton poplin or brushed wool, styled with sculptural heels or silk scarves.

4. Statement Outerwear as Uniform

From belted trench coats to military-inspired dusters, the French are masters of making one piece do all the talking.

Key colours: Dusty olive, espresso brown, soft grey

Where to buy: Claudie Pierlot, Maje, Soeur, IRO

5. Flat Shoes are Fashion Again

Ballet flats, fisherman sandals, buckled loafers—French cool-girls have swapped out heels for hyper-practical flats, styled with wide-leg trousers or silk skirts.

Best French shoe labels:

Repetto
Carel
Bobbies
Jonak

6. Vintage-Inspired Denim

No rips, no logos, no fuss. Just straight-leg, slightly cropped jeans with a perfect high waist and a clean finish.

Go-to brands: A.P.C., Sezane, Musier Paris

📏 French denim sizing is not the same as UK sizing—Tellar helps you convert it

7. Sheer Layers & Second Skin Tops

Think mesh turtlenecks, organza shirts, and semi-sheer dresses—always layered tastefully, never too exposed.

Worn with:

Structured tailoring
Minimalist heels
Delicate gold jewellery

Brands doing this well: Coperni, Jacquemus, Courrèges

8. The "No Effort" Dress

Wrap dresses, button-front midis, and tiered cotton poplin dresses dominate. French women don’t over-style—just throw it on with clean skin and a swipe of red lip.

Look to: Rouje, Sezane, Ba&sh

🟢 Don’t guess your dress size—check it on Tellar.co.uk

9. Neutrals + One “Off” Colour

French outfits typically stay neutral—until they don’t. One flash of cobalt blue, chartreuse, or vermillion red keeps the outfit elevated without being loud.

Styling tip: Add it with a shoe, scarf, or silk bag.

10. Sustainable Fashion That Doesn’t Shout

France is at the forefront of quiet sustainability. Expect upcycled denim, vintage-style silhouettes, and materials that look expensive but last.

Top sustainable French brands:

MaisonCléo (made to order)
Veja (sneakers)
Balzac Paris
Sézane (B Corp certified)
