Not Wedges, Not Pumps—This Is the Latest Heel Trend That Fashion Icons in Paris Are Embracing This Season.
Although Margot Robbie just arrived in the French capital on Monday, she is making sure her stay is as stylish as the fashion and people that inhabit the city. For her inaugural appearance, she donned a romantic outfit that exuded Madame Du Barry vibes, featuring a dreamy midi skirt from Gold Coast label With Jéan (the same place she's from) paired with a black corset that would have certainly garnered Catherine Earnshaw’s approval. Following that, for a casual coffee outing, she sported a relaxed coastal look reminiscent of Queensland's renowned beaches, including a knitted tube top from Frankies Bikinis, denim shorts, and suede sandals by Tory Burch. Now, after a flurry of fashionable moments filled with references, she has appeared in a quintessential Parisian outfit.
As a Chanel ambassador, Robbie has years of experience in showcasing the French brand's most exquisite couture pieces, making it only natural for her to adopt this chic style for her latest look. This particular ensemble included a white, mod-inspired minidress, a wide-brim hat, and cut-out heels, the latter being the modern alternative to the classic slingback. While it’s worth noting that this outfit was part of her costume for the upcoming Oceans Eleven prequel, it highlights the elegant power of minimalistic and timeless designs. From Christian Dior’s New Look to Yves Saint Laurent’s Le Smoking jackets, the finest French pieces are those that transcend specific decades or trends, continuously offering sophistication through their effortless appeal and refined tailoring. As filming progresses, we can anticipate seeing the Oscar nominee in more glamorous outfits, especially when the production moves to the Côte d'Azur for scenes set at the Monte Carlo casino. Although the press tour is still a ways off, one can easily envision what Robbie and her long-time stylist Andrew Mukamal are planning: Grace Kelly elegance, hints of femme fatale allure reminiscent of Alfred Hitchcock’s iconic icy blondes, and selections that Coco Chanel would have chosen for her starry clientele of yesteryear. Until then, you can recreate this fantasy by assembling a similar look with these stylish items.
