French fashion brands to wear on repeat this Spring-Summer: Master the It French girl style

As a French fashion blogger based in the USA, people often tell me how much they love French fashion brands. Indeed, French fashion luxury labels (Chanel, Hermes, Givenchy, Dior, Celine, Chloe, etc.) are internationally famous and have been on trend for decades. The French girl style is a regular topic in international magazines. But French style cannot only be assimilated to luxury labels. It is actually a matter of versatility, timeless elegance, modernity and quality. Moreover, French women have access to a plethora of stylish fashion brands at different price points, which definitely help them to achieve the coveted French style.

I have rounded up some of my favorite French fashion brands to wear this Spring Summer: Balzac Paris, Sezane, Isabel Marant, Jacquemus, Chanel, Chloe, Zadig & Voltaire, Longchamp, Ba&Sh, Tara Jarmon, Maje, Iro. I hope you will like them as much as I do. 

French brands to wear on a daily basis: from affordable quality brands to luxury labels.

 

Sezane – Every Day Quality Parisian label

Best French fashion brands to wear every day Spring Summer 2020. Discover the latest French fashion labels inside the French girl's closet: Iro, Balzac Paris, Sezane, Tara Jarmon, Ba&Sh, Isabel Marant, Longchamp, Maje and more. Blog post by the French fashion blogger Julia Comil based in Los Angeles - French style topic - SezaneThe concept: Sézane is the first online Parisian fashion label. The label offers a modern Parisian collection with a retro flair. Founded eight years ago by Parisian Morgane Sézalory, Sézane e-store has gathered a cult following. Items rarely go on sale, and usually, only best-sellers are released. Sézane knows very well its suppliers. Indeed, some of their shoes are made in the same factories which work with luxury brands and because of Sézane’s business model they can have a different price point.

Now available in the US, Sézane is definitely an online experience to try. Do sign up to its newsletter as the products are regularly sold out. 

Must-Have: I bought their suits, tees, blouses, and shoes on repeat. I love how the pants fit on a petite silhouette like me. The dresses are very romantic and perfect for this Summer.

Balzac Paris – Every Day Quality
