People in Paris Will Wear These 4 Fall Basics to Look Chic

Parisians are known for their effortless approach to style. As a result, elevated basics are typically front-runners for many French women we follow because basics are easy and no-fuss in nature. Classic basics like white button-up shirts and straight-leg jeans have consistently been wardrobe anchors for people in Paris (and will continue to be staples), but there are other fall basics that Parisians will wear to look chic and elegant.
Below, you’ll find the already-popular fall basics French women will surely wear over the next few months to create those cool and effortless silhouettes. You’ll notice everything from a trending jacket to a can’t-miss sweater style. Keep scrolling for more, along with shopping inspiration as you start building your fall wardrobe.
1. Cuffed Jeans
Classic straight-leg jeans will continue to be front and center (you'll see outfits featuring the cut below!), but relaxed denim with cuffs (either pre-cuffed or those you cuff yourself) will also be a popular choice among Parisians for a cool vibe.
2. Denim Shirt
Aside from timeless white and striped button-up shirts, denim shirts will be another choice to create those no-fuss silhouettes.
3. V-Neck Sweater
A V-neck sweater inherently feels elegant and effortless. This ensemble featuring the knit with a skirt is beyond chic.
4. Longline Trench/Coat
About outerwear, a longline trench or coat is always elevated. You could wear anything with a long coat and give off that chic vibe.
