French girls have that unique “je ne sais quoi” sexy look that is always on, whatever they are doing. Whether it’s that effortless chic that they possess or something else, French girls and brides look jaw-dropping, and may brides in the world wanna look like that. Let’s discuss some tips to pull off such a look on your big day and consider some real French bridal outfits.
Don’t Be Too Put Together
What’s great about French fashion is that one never needs to try too hard. In fact, the secret lies in the details. The look is to always have one thing undone as a French woman has always had an air of sensual mystery about her. “Undoneness” can come through effortless hair. So ditch complicated updo in favor of loose waves. Doing so might even help you spend less time in the makeup chair or more time sipping mimosas with your ‘maids!

Avoid Diamantés
If you can’t already tell, French girls are pretty easy going—or at least dress like it! That means sparkles, jewels and other flashy embellishments have no place in their wardrobes, especially a bridal gown. Let the fabrics shine instead.

Keep Your Makeup Minimal
If French women are notorious for one thing, it’s their idea of beauty. The typical French girl doesn’t care much about makeup. So do as the French do and don’t fuss too much about perfecting your wedding day makeup.

Dress For Yourself
Last, but certainly not least, dress for yourself! Part of what makes French fashion so idyllic is because the women are unapologetically themselves. French women are very independent when it comes to fashion. They care very little about what others think of their style. Famous Parisian brides like Brigitte Bardot, Françoise Hardy & Jane Birkin continue to be iconic today because they were original. As a bride, you should be your own muse. Get inspired by true French chic!
