You already know how muchBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing editors love the effortlessly chic aesthetic that makes French people so renowned for their personal style, so it should come as no surprise that I'm also obsessed. If there's one group of people that I'd trust with my closet, it's French women.
I recently went on aReplica Store deep dive and realized that I have been shopping for the same brands as of late. In my efforts to search for a new source of inspiration, I started wondering which brands French women would shop at on the brand's website. After a few moments of that thought pattern, I decided to just ask someone who lives among them myself.
I hit up a Parisian friend, Franziska Nazarenus, in the DMs to get the scoop, and my first question was, Do French women love Nordstrom as much as we do? Her answer was a big yes, and she let me know a few of their favorite brands on the site—seven to be exact.
1. Maje
"Maje is the epitome of a real French-girl brand. I love the feminine, playful, and simple and timeless fashion."
Shop the brand:
You'll wear this so much.
Tweed? Yes, please.
These trousers have won me over.
The perfect addition to my collection of fall dresses.
2. Ba&Sh
"Their (fashion) motto—a brand truly made by women for women—says it all. I own several Ba&Sh pieces that I could wear every day."
Shop the brand:
Bring on the cardigans.
An instant classic.
Everyone knows how much I love a matching skirt.
Stunning.
3. Other Stories
"I can definitely recommend Other Stories for the typical French-girl look."
Shop the brand:
Three-quarter sleeves always have a way of looking elevated.
Sweater season is in full force.
You might be afraid of wearing color, but no one can be afraid of wearing a skirt like this.
Officewear chic.
4. COS
"Basics are the basis of your wardrobe, and COS is known for timeless, high-quality, and affordable pieces."
Shop the brand:
If you don't have a COS handbag, now is your time.
These are incredible.
I adore an LBD.
No matter how cold it gets, I'll always be wearing a skirt.
5. Isabel Marant Étoile
"Isabel Marant is a luminary in France. Her designs are unique and at the same time wearable in everyday life. I especially love the brand's cool, chic vibe."
Shop the brand:
Stunning knit.
I'm in love.
Suede-boot weather.
I love chunky knits.
6. Courrèges
"Courrèges is now an absolute cult brand in Paris for its iconic jackets and dresses—pieces I (and thousands of Parisians) swear by."
Shop the brand:
A good jacket goes a long way.
This top will live in my mind rent-free until it's in my closet.
We love her.
Yes, please.
7. Comme des Garçons Play
"[This is] one of my favorite streetwear brands when it comes to sneakers. Their Converse collab with the bright-red heart on the side of the shoe is iconic."
Shop the brand:
A Comme des Garçons piece many people already own.
You can never go wrong with these.
Because stripes are so French.
A classic.
