Marion Cotillard and Isabelle Huppert give us a lesson in Parisian style on the red carpet

Marion Cotillard and Isabelle Huppert showcase authentic Parisian style, moving away from stereotypes to reveal subtle elegance.

The American vision of the “French girl” style often diverges from reality. Instead of berets and bold red lips, true “French girls” like Marion Cotillard and Isabelle Huppert demonstrate that Parisian elegance is far more understated and sophisticated, as seen during their recent red carpet appearance.

Cotillard dazzled at the César Révélations photocall in Paris wearing a sheer dress from Chanel’s Pre-Fall 2025 collection. The design featured gold detailing on the sleeves and skirt, paired with a black bra, thong, and tousled hair. She completed the look with coral lipstick, a nod to Parisian fashion with a casual, relaxed air.

Huppert, on the other hand, embraced this discreet take on French chic with a fitted black dress complemented by simple makeup and silver jewellery. Her black nail polish added a touch of boldness to her elegant look.

Far from the fantasies about French style, Cotillard and Huppert show us that true elegance lies in simplicity and sophistication. Parisian chic at its finest.
