‘All for one and one for all’ is the motto of Athos, Porthos, Aramis, and Artagnan, four characters from the book “The Three Musketeers” by Alexandre Dumas, the most famous French writer of the nineteenth century.
Few people outside of France realize that Dumas based his characters on four historical figures who were part of the King’s musketeers (mousquetaires du roi). These high-ranking elite soldiers were skilled in using muskets, a type of firearm, and are often depicted wearing distinctive uniforms with feathered hats and swords. ( source )

These holy warriors are usually depicted wearing a white tunic with a red cross on the chest and a white hooded cloak. Some costumes also include chainmail armour and accessories such as a sword, shield, or gauntlets (a type of glove.)
14) Marie Curie
Do as Sheldon did on the Big Bang TV series and dress up as Marie Curie, better known as Madame Curie in France. She was a Polish naturalized French physicist and chemist famous for her work on radioactivity and the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, which she won in 1911 for discovering the elements radium and polonium.
To become Marie Curie, forget about a white lab coat which she rarely wore. Instead, you’ll need to wear a long black dress — period clothing from the late 19th century. In photos, she usually has frizzy hair, which she coiled into a bun or chignon. Throw in some laboratory props like a test tube, flask, or beaker — made of plastic, and voila.
You could also get creative with the symbols from the periodic table of elements she discovered, “RA” for radium and “PO” for polonium.
15) Coco Chanel
Coco Chanel was a famous French fashion designer known for popularizing women’s clothing inspired by menswear.

Famous French couple’s Halloween costumes
Here are some French Halloween costumes that would be great for couples.
17) Marie Antoinette and King Louis XVI
Put a regal twist to your French Halloween costume by dressing up as Marie Antoinette and King Louis XVI, the ultimate French power couple. They were the last king and queen of France until they lost their heads, literally. Both were beheaded during the French Revolution. Some gruesome variations to this costume are to add elements that reflect their beheading by adding dripping, dripping blood to their neck, tattered clothing and tarnished jewelry.
Marie Antoinette Halloween costume: Her signature look included a white powdered wig, regal gown, ribbons, and the distinctive touch of Rococo makeup and beauty marks. Don’t forget the cake. Marie Antoinette is often given credit for saying let them eat cake .
King Louis the 16th costume: To achieve his extravagant royal look, you’ll need a long ornate coat, also known as a tailcoat, Knee-length breeches, white stockings, and a white ruffled dress shirt with cuffs. In terms of shoes and accessories, you’ll need a pair of buckled shoes and a cravat, a type of neckband similar to an Ascott. Don’t forget the powdered wig and maybe a big gold ring.
18) Mona Lisa & Leonardo Da Vinci
The Mona Lisa, painted by the Italian artist Leonardo Da Vinci, which is displayed at the Louvre Museum in Paris, is one of the most recognizable paintings in the world and a national treasure of France. In French, the painting is called “La Joconde” from the Italian “La Gioconda” because it’s believed that the woman in the painting was Lisa del Giocondo.
Mona Lisa Costume: You could dress up as the Mona Lisa painting, which you could buy online or make at home. Another option is to dress up as Mona Lisa herself. You would need a dark-coloured dress and to fix your hair to match Mona Lisa’s style in the painting. Apply your makeup to create a pale complexion, and outline your lips so you can recreate her mysterious smile. A fun little accessory would be to include a bag with a print of the Mona Lisa on it.
Da Vinci costume: To dress up as Leonardo Da Vinci, you’ll need a long, scraggly white beard and, of course, a beret or peasant cap, which were signature accessories of artists during the Renaissance period. Choose earthy-toned Renaissance clothing such as a robe or tunic. Don’t forget to wear Renaissance-type boots or shoes. And just for fun, wear a pair of Mona Lisa socks.
Stereotypical French costumes
There’s no end to French clichés that can be turned into French Halloween costumes.
19) French maid costume
The exaggerated stereotype of the sexy French maid is a fun alternative to other seductive costumes. French maid uniforms typically consist of a short black dress with a white apron and some sort of headpiece. Add a duster to complete the ensemble.
20) French Ballerina
Get ready to Plié and pirouette in a French ballerina costume. You’ll need a ballerina leotard, tutu and some comfortable ballet shoes you can wear outdoors. Don’t forget to slick back your hair into a bun and apply some sophisticated and dramatic makeup.
21) French mime Halloween costume (a great couples costume)
French mimes, short for “pantomime,” have historical roots in France that date back to the ancient Romans and Greeks. These silent performances use exaggerated facial expressions and gestures to tell a story and convey emotion, which means you don’t have to talk to anyone if you dress up in a French mime costume.
What do mime artists wear?
French mime costumes typically consist of a horizontally striped black and white shirt, Black Pants, suspenders, a beret and sometimes white gloves. Don’t forget the mime makeup for Halloween, which consists of applying thick white face makeup and red lips, which emphasizes their expressions more.
22) Air France flight attendant
Join the “Mile High Club” and show off your love for travel and France by dressing up as an Air France flight attendant.
Air France uniform
Air France uniforms typically include a navy blue suit or dress and a light blue or red scarf to match the airline’s brand identity. You can also add gloves and a retro pillbox hat that you can make out of cardboard and fabric. You’ll need to look up some pillbox hat tutorials on Google.
23) French sailor costume
Dressing up as a French sailor is an easily recognizable symbol of the French maritime culture.
There are so many ways to put together a French sailor costume, but it typically includes a navy blue and white striped shirt paired with either white or blue pants or shorts and a white sailor hat. You can keep it traditional or add some flair and go for a sexy French sailor theme.
24) Rude French waiter costume
An easy homemade French costume would be to dress up as a rude French bistro waiter.
You’ll need a waist apron, a white shirt, which you could pair with a black vest , and some props, such as a wine bottle opener and maybe a drink tray.
Add some finishing touches, such as a fake moustache and a rude attitude, and you’re good.
25) A French man cliché
Stereotypical French man costume is easy to put together. It’s based on cultural clichés and iconic imagery associated with France.
- Striped Shirt: The Breton striped shirt, known as a “marinière.”
- Suspenders: Suspenders or braces can add a traditional touch to the costume.
- Baguette: Carrying a baguette (French bread) or a bottle of wine can be a humorous prop.
- Blue or Red Scarf: Like the ones worn by French labourers
- Black Pants
- Red, navy blue or black A-line dress or skirt:
- Nice shoes:
- Fake cigarette:
26) A French woman cliché
Funny French food-inspired Halloween costumes

28) Baguette costume

The Nutella obsession is real.
30) French Mustard Bottle

In French culture, Marianne is the goddess of liberty and the national emblem of the French Republic. She represents the French values and motto “Liberty, Equality, Fraternity”.
She is often depicted wearing a red Phrygian cap, aka liberty cap, a white dress, a brown belt and carrying a French flag . An example of this is in the French painting “Liberty Leading the People” displayed at the Louvre.
34) Rooster (le coq Gaulois)
Every true Francophile knows that the rooster (le coq) has been the unofficial symbol of France since Roman times. It’s used on souvenirs, jerseys, and flags and was even used as a symbol during the French Revolution.
35) French Coq hat
A French cockerel hat (coq hat) is a type of headdress that is often worn by supporters of the French national football (soccer) team, especially during international tournaments. The coq hat gets its name from the Gallic Rooster (le coq gaulois), which is the unofficial national symbol of France, symbolizing the fighting spirit and pride of the French people.
36) Elegant French Paris Eiffel Tower dress
If you want to embrace a French theme for Halloween without wearing an actual costume or need an outfit for a French-themed party, look for accessories and clothing printed with French icons.
37) Soccer player for the French team
Soccer, which is called “football” in French, is a big deal in France. Show your spirit for French teams by dressing up as a French football player. (Kylian Mbappé is one of France’s most well-known professional footballers.)
38) French Mardi Gras girl
Embrace the lively spirit of Mardi Gras and the Carnival season by wearing French flag -coloured clothing and accessories. For a touch of class, add some rose-coloured glasses to represent the French expression “La Vie en Rose,” made famous in Édith Piaf’s f mous French song . The song conveys the idea of seeing life through rose-coloured glasses.
39) French flag face
Don’t forget to decorate your face like the French flag .
40) Statue of Liberty costume
If you’re looking for a French-themed costume with a twist, look no further than the Statue of Liberty. Although most people associate her with the United States, she was actually designed by a French sculptor and built in France, then shipped off to the US as a gift.
The entire costume can easily be created at home. You’ll need a green dress or green toga-type robe to mimic the weathered oxidized copper of the statue. There are plenty of online tutorials that show you how to make the torch and crown with construction paper. And don’t forget the tablet she’s holding with the inscription “JULY IV MDCCLXXVI” (July 4, 1776), which you can make from foam or cardboard.
41) Human French flag costume
What better way to honour France and show your patriotism than to dress up as the ultimate symbol of France, the French flag ? All you have to do is find anything with a blue, white and red flag motif.

No BS guide on what to wear in France (from someone who’s lived here a decade!)
France · travel
France can be intimidating to a lot of us, especially before our first trip when we’re left to base our opinion on other people’s stories. I know this to be true because France intimidated me before I moved here! From the language to the people to the culture, it can all be dizzying for someone who has never been to France.
One question I get regularly is about how to dress in France. I’ve gotten so many emails over the years from people asking if they need to buy anything special to fit in as a tourist. You’re curious about what French people actually wear, so this post is long overdue. Let’s get into how to dress in France (and what to wear in Paris and NOT wear). How do women dress in France? Read on…
How to dress in Paris (what to wear in France)
First up, when reading articles about how to dress in France and Paris fashions, I see a lot of content out there that paints French women and their fashion style with the same brush.
It’s well-meaning advice that answers “How do women dress in France” that’s not necessarily wrong, but it leaves very little room for people who don’t dress the fashion-forward way being described. It can even be stressful for someone who is not very fashionable and thinks they need to be in order to enjoy their France vacation.
I’m here to help and can get you squared way on what to wear in France. Read on…
The French fashion advice I see time and time again about what to wear in Paris is also not super practical for those of us who are going to be walking a lot and doing touristy things.
I’m pointing this out because it’s important to take all how to dress in France fashion advice (even mine!) with a grain of salt. Yes, generally speaking French people tend to dress up a bit more than Americans — especially in big cities like Paris — but no one is going to shame you for your fashion choices as a tourist if you don’t look like the Parisian women around you.
Besides, fashion is deeply personal, so keep your own preferences in mind.
Next, let me repeat something I say this a lot on my blog in varying contexts because it applies here in this post about “how to dress in France” too. Not all French people are the same . They don’t dress the same way and not everyone cares about fashion or looking put together.
French people are also not all secretly judging tourists’ fashion choices and really don’t care what you wear. It’s important to feel good in your own skin. Emily in Paris’ fashions aren’t real life for 99% of people out there and are definitely not for tourists.
Above all, I think it’s important to wear what you like and what you’re most comfortable wearing.
How do women dress in France? Well, French fashion is diverse
It might surprise you that there is a lot of diversity in how people dress — especially outside of big cities. French women dress for their own personal style (or lack there of), region and climate, budget, activity, and a whole lot of other factors.
A point I want to stress is that French people don’t all dress any one way and they’re certainly not all upper middle class fashionistas. French fashion style is so diverse.
For the record, you will see the French in sneakers. In shorts. In baseball caps. In casual clothes. In track suits with dirty sneakers. And believe it or not, I regularly see French folks in workout wear hitting up my small-town grocery store after the gym — still in yoga pants and athletic shoes. The times are a-changin’!
There are loads of French people who dress sloppily and couldn’t care less about labels or looking put together or trendy. Just like in the U.S., you’ll find more fashionable looking people — “sharp” as my mom would say — in big cities. Paris is a bit like New York, in that you’ll see more fashionable, style-conscious people than in smaller towns.
The South of France tends to have a bit more of a relaxed style. You’ll see all kinds of beachwear along the coast and people in flip-flops at beachside cafes. This stands in stark contrast to Paris fashions.
But despite what you see in the movies, not all French women are slim fashionistas rocking the latest designer everything. So don’t let that outdated French fashion stereotype stress you out at all.
How to dress like a French woman
What I’ve noticed is that for most people, French style is less about name brands and more about how the overall outfit comes across. You don’t need expensive designer clothes to fit in with locals in France and dress like a French woman. Do some women love designer labels? Of course. But if you’re looking to fit in, just keep some simple overarching French style tips in mind.
First, a lot of French women are more discreet in their style, in terms of colors, cuts, and accessories than the average American. How to dress in France is all about being understated, to an extent.
When in France, think neutral colors, nothing too short, low cut, or flashy. But again, this is speaking generally and you do what feels right to you . There are always exceptions to these French fashion style rules. You’ll find French women who love short colorful dresses, stiletto high heels, with tons of flashy jewelry, and a bright designer handbag. But it’s not the norm and it’s not the way to fit in.
First and foremost, let me mind you of Rule 1, as a tourist you’ll want to dress in a way that’s comfortable for you and your plans. Ultimately, wear things that make you happy. But no 6-inch stiletto heels when you visit Mont St. Michel and the cobblestone streets, OK? Your ankles will thank me. 😉
If you want to dress like the locals in France, there’s a lot of variety here. As a tourist going on a hike, if you want to look like a French one, go to Decathlon and buy anything by the brand Quechua . The French are known for these backpacks and jackets and I love my Quechua windbreaker. Tom’s dad loves his backpack. Anything Quechua will have people pegging you as a French tourist.
As long as you don’t wear white socks up to your knees with dirty old sneakers and Birkenstocks and a big neon fanny pack complete with a t-shirt and baseball cap with an American flag, you won’t stand out. But if that’s your jam when visiting the Eiffel Tower, go for it. Rule 1 is key when wandering the streets of Paris. 😉
But honestly, no one is going to care what you’re wearing as long as you’re clothed and dressed appropriately (don’t go to a Michelin-starred restaurant in your flip-flops and cut off jean shorts, though. There’s a dress code in that case). That may seem obvious, but man oh man, do I have stories…
French people are not going to approach you and tell you that what you’re wearing is what NOT to wear in Paris. Everyone’s too busy to pay attention. Again, that might seem obvious to some of you, but trust me when I say I’ve gotten a bunch of emails over the years asking this.
As a tourist in France, you’re just passing through. It’s OK to be a tourist and look like one, complete with hiking boots, a windbreaker and a backpack. French folks are tourists too sometimes. And if anyone judges you, it’s no biggie, ok? You won’t see them again.
Something else to keep in mind when deciding on how to dress in France is that your sightseeing outfit is going to be different than what a French woman is wearing to her office job or someone grabbing a late night meal with friends in her neighborhood or someone going out to a nightclub.
As a tourist, dress for the activity you’ll be doing. Fashion will look different at a nightclub, a dinner party, desk job, sightseeing, etc.
So now that my big intro is out of the way, it’s time to jump into my French fashion advice on how to dress in France…
There are some overarching French style principles you may want to take into account if your goal is to fit in or look more French, no matter if you’re 20 or 70 years old.
Style tips for what to wear in Paris (and France in general):
My disclaimer: There’s nothing wrong with trying to fit in or NOT fit in with the French. Style is personal and it’s OK to wear the things you like. That said, by sticking to my tips below on how to dress in Paris, you’ll show you’ve done your homework on French culture . But you do what feels right for you.
In addition, figuring out how to dress in Paris is often a matter of practicality and safety . Fitting in instead of calling attention to yourself via your style of dress will help deter pickpockets, scammers, and thieves.
1. Less is more
The French are masters at looking chic without being over the top about it. You don’t need to have perfectly coiffed hair, a full face of makeup, and be dressed to the nines to fit in with the French.
Less is more when it comes to personal style and learning how to dress in Paris. A few versatile, high-quality pieces that fit well go a long way. No need to overdo it and look like you’re trying too hard. Effortless is the key word here.
2. Wear neutrals
While you will see French people wearing colors, neutrals are way more common. Or neutrals mixed with a bit of color and not an all-red outfit. Think shades of black, white, brown, gray, and beige instead of bright colors. Floral patterns and other more simple patterns — nothing too busy — are popular for tops and dresses .
3. Don’t be too flashy This might be my most important fashion tip for how to dress like a French woman. Don’t be too flashy! This goes for the clothes themselves and also your accessories like jewelry and handbags.
Remember what I just said above about how less is more. French fashion style is more classic than trendy. Anything overly attention grabbing would be seen as a bit of a faux pas to some and a definitely a bit out of touch.
Wearing bright red heels, a colorful short dress, a ton of jewelry and heavy makeup with a brightly colored handbag would be a bit flashy for everyday French taste. You really don’t see people dressed like this at the farmers’ market or running errands.
This also means that it’s best to leave your overly revealing outfits at home along with your expensive jewelry. Anything too short/tight/lowcut will get you the wrong kind of attention. Think elegant sexy and not in-your-face sexy. Leave those short shorts behind.
When it comes to jewelry, opt for some affordable pieces from my new fave Quince ( full review here and use this link for a $20 off Quince discount code ). You can still look put together but not worry about losing a pricey piece. Quince has affordable prices and top quality.
These gold vermeil earrings are gorgeous. Same with the matching ring (just $39 bucks). BaubleBar also has super affordable jewelry perfect for a trip to Paris (like this trendy paperclip bracelet ).
4. Keep it neat
The French tend to look put together, even in simple outfits. This means making sure you’re wearing clean shoes, clothes that are ironed (or atleast not wrinkly) and that fit well (properly tailored!) and nothing overly sloppy looking. Think tailored shorts and nice sandals with a button-up tank instead of denim cutoffs, plastic flip-flops, and an old tee.
5. Elevate your casual style
Generally speaking, especially in bigger cities like Paris, French people’s everyday casual attire for running errands and socializing is bit more dressy than what you’d see in the U.S.
It doesn’t mean everyone everywhere dresses up, but it’s safe to say that dressing up a bit is totally normal in France even if you’re just running errands. When you’re having doubts and not quite sure what to wear in Paris, you can opt for something a bit more dressy and you’ll fit in with everyone else just fine.
Something else to note when learning how to dress like the French is that most people do not wear athletic wear or loungewear out and about unless it’s just a quick errand on the way home from the gym or park. Athleisure is becoming more popular though but throw on joggers with fashionable sneakers and a moto jacket (like my picks below) and not old running shoes and a hoodie.
Next, don’t be afraid to throw on a blazer over your jeans instead of a sweatshirt or wear a more tailored pair of pants. Pull on your leather ankle boots instead of old sneakers.
Women of all ages love the blazer over a button-down shirt look, or even as a way to class up a t-shirt. Believe it or not, striped Breton shirts aren’t just for tourists.
A quick word on sneakers: The French do wear them but athletic shoes are generally reserved for the gym.
For both men and women, go for a pair of Adidas Originals Stan Smith , vegan French brand Vej a, or Converse style sneakers instead. This European style of sneaker is also popular. I have a pair in red. Comfortable walking shoes are a must.
6. Add a scarf
How do people dress in France? With a light scarf! When in doubt, no matter the season or your gender, add a scarf of some sort. It’ll keep you warm and double as a fashion accessory. Go neutral or more colorful but just make sure you have one.
Tie or loop it around your neck and voilà, your outfit is complete. A scarf really is a must when learning how to dress in France if you want to fit in. Leave your wooly winter scarf at home in the spring and summer and grab a casual French scarf like this affordable one instead.
A silk scarf and cotton blends are popular and a cashmere option during the winter months is a solid pick too.

What to pack for Paris
When I’m traveling, I like to pack versatile, unfussy pieces in dark colors that can go from day to night with just a change of shoes. Sweat-wicking fabric is also a plus.
Next, always be prepared for the unpredictable weather. Unless it’s in the middle of summer and you’re in the South of France, layers are a must. Even in May, temps can still be quite cool and you can have some rainy days, so when deciding what to wear in France, be prepared for everything when you plan out your Paris outfits.
We visited the Mont St. Michel in June and the wind was whipping in the 40s F. My scarf and hooded jacket came in handy. So be prepared for the weather even if you think it “should” be warm.
Example of what to pack for Paris in spring weather:
// Quince Italian Leather Quilted Crossbody bag . I have this in the color pictured and the leather is great quality. It’s the perfect size for a small wallet and a few essentials. (Get $20 off w/my Quince discount code link!) Belt bag , aka the modern fanny packs, are also functional and look great worn as a cross-body bag.
// Quince cashmere scarf. I hate when wind blows down my neck and this scarf gets the job done. It goes from winter to early spring beautifully.
// Athleta Everlasting tank . Available in a bunch of colors, this lightweight tank is a perfect layering piece and can be dressed up or down. Think of it as a button-down shirt but in tank form.
// Halogen Long Cardigan . A lightweight cardigan is a springtime must and this one fits the bill. And here’s a shorter option from Lands’ End.
// Cole Haan Trench Coat . A lightweight coat like this one is perfect for whatever the day brings.
// Quince Moto Jacket . If you like shorter options, you can’t go wrong with a leather moto jacket. Consider this my Paris leather jacket pick. It’s versatile and will last for years!
// Veja Esplar sneakers . Super popular French brand with both men and women.
// Nisolo Chelsea Boots . Classic and sustainably made, these leather ankle boots will last you for years to come.
// Athleta B rooklyn Ankle pant . Lightweight with enough stretch to move, these pants will soon became your favorite travel pant and can be dressed up or down.
// Madewell Curvy Vintage Fit jeans . For the jeans lovers out ther, if you haven’t checked out Madewell jeans, they’re worth a look!
What to wear in France in the spring:
If you’re curious about how to dress like a French woman, you’ll want to keep some general style categories in mind as you’re putting together your Paris packing list. The brand isn’t super important. Think classic, versatile pieces in neutral colors.
Light coat or jacket. Every tourist needs a spring jacket — whether you’re trying to emulate Parisian fashion or not. A trench coat is a good pick or if you’re into a shorter option, a moto jacket works well. If you’re going to be quite active and going hiking and that sort of thing, go with a windbreaker/light jacket like this one. I’d recommend bringing two jackets — one that’s more stylish like the trench or moto and one that’s more functional for daytime hikes.
Light pants. While you can never go wrong with jeans, I like to be able to move a bit more and go with a lighter option nine times out of 10. Athleta is one of my favorite brands not only for activewear but for travel clothes. In addition to the Brooklyn Ankle pant above, the Venice joggers are amazing. I have them in two colors along with these as well .
I’m not a fan of skinny jeans or jeans in general if I have a lot of walking to do or will be super active — especially in warmer months. They don’t breathe well and can chafe in all the wrong places. If you love jeans, black jeans would be my pick. Or better yet, go with some of my active pant picks from Athleta above. Black pants for the win — they won’t show sweat or stains as easily.
Up top, I like a tank top and then either a long sleeve top like a cardigan you can easily take off or a sweatshirt, depending on the temps.
If you’re more at ease in a dress , knee-length and below the knee midi dresses in floral patterns are really popular — both with sneakers and sandals. Maxi dresses are also popular, so feel free to pop one into your luggage.
Ultimate travel essentials for your trip to Europe >>
Shoes. Comfortable shoes are a must, especially on days where you’re walking everywhere. Ballet flats look cute but I’d save them for a short stroll in your neighborhood when you’re only going out for a drink or coffee, not a day where you have a lot of walking to do.
These were my sneakers/tennis shoes picks from above:
Adidas Originals Stan Smith , vegan French brand Vej a, or Converse style sneakers instead. This European style of sneaker is also popular.
I love these zip-up Ugg high-top sneakers and have them in black. Second pair actually (just without the shearling). LOVE.
To elevate your look, why not try some boots. You can’t go wrong with a style like the Nisolo Chelsea boot . I have them in brandy.
Regardless of what shoes you choose, make sure they’re broken in ahead of time. There’s nothing worse than blisters from new shoes.
Scarf. My cashmere scarf from Quince is 10 out of 10. Here’s a lighter scarf option. Everyone has a scarf pretty much all year round so rock whatever style you like best. You’ll fit right in.
Hat/visor. If you try to stay out of the sun like me, something to protect your face is a must. I have this visor .
Umbrella. You never know when it might rain. My Totes travel umbrella has never steered me wrong.
Bag. I’ve been a fan of Pacsafe’s anti-theft products for years. Their bags have special tech like RFID blocking and slash proof straps that’ll safeguard your belongings. I’ve had my Pacsafe backpack for five years and it’s still going strong.
For a classic purse, you can never go wrong with the classic French brand Longchamp. Their zip-closed Le Pliage bag comes in a variety of sizes and colors and is perfect for your France trip any time of year.

Recap of what not to wear in Paris (if you want to fit in)
–Overly flashy jewelry. Leave it home. –Plastic flip-flops that you’d see at the beach (unless you’re at the beach) –A very brightly colored outfit –Super revealing clothing –Athletic shoes and athletic wear meant for the gym

Diane, I always enjoy your posts. They’re fun and informative. And, in response to your post on fashion…. My favorite light rain jacket in the states is bright pink. I get lots of compliments when I wear it. But, after more than a few visits to Paris and the rest of France, I never bring it along when I travel. Just too bright. Plus, I’m not a kid. I’m in my 60s. The ultimate compliment in France is being spoken to in French by a stranger, as if I’m a local. I don’t think that would never happen in my bright pink raincoat!
April 19, 2023 at 6:04 am
Thank you so much, Kathy! I appreciate that and am so glad you find my content helpful and fun. 😉 I can’t say I see too many bright pink rain jackets but I’m sure they exist and if you love it, definitely wear it!!
August 5, 2023 at 1:27 pm
Oh, the fun of fashion! I live in Languedoc, in the far south of France, and things are quite relaxed here, so let me give you an example. Last night we went to a little music event at our village square. We sat on the bar terrace with a 1 euro glass of wine and enjoyed one of my favorite pastimes: people watching. So it is August, but the weather was not very hot and a strong wind was really quite cool. I’d worn a fleeze! In August! Anyway, here comes one of our inhabitants strolling along — a man with a pony tale, his beard braided, wearing floppy pink harem pants. A woman stood out because she’d put on her winter coat against the breeze, a coat complete with big furry collar. in August, in the south of France. I love this place! Okay, this was kind of unusual, and most people just wear very ordinary clothes, but it is definitely not high society Paris here.
September 24, 2023 at 9:16 pm
I’m going to Paris in October for a week and after 3 days walking around NYC my feet were SO SORE so I was going to bring my Birkenstocks with me to Paris (hopefully it isn’t rainy!) because they truly are the most comfortable shoes I own. So these will be a dead giveaway?
September 24, 2023 at 9:25 pm
Hello, I don’t think Birkenstocks in and of themselves will mark you as a tourist. They are really popular now among the French. But wearing them in October might be seen as a bit unusual since they’re typically worn in the summer. There are tons of tourists in Paris, so you definitely won’t stand out. Have a great trip!
October 3, 2023 at 10:00 pm
I’ve often read advice to foreign tourists not to wear sportswear, hiking shoes and so on in Paris because it flags them as tourists.
In fact, it’s no issue to wear sportswear such as Quechua: most people would think you are a French local or tourist, or perhaps from one of the neighboring countries where Decathlon is popular. I wear hiking shoes when visiting Paris, they are very good for walking in the street, Métro staircases and so on.
What flags people as tourists is highly visible foreign brands that are not so usual in France (e.g. Under Armor), especially combined with bright colors.
February 26, 2024 at 8:14 am
Bonjour Diane,
Thank you for your excellent take on French fashion. Interesting, fun and useful. Great example of clothes, shoes, accessories and even brands French brands.
Until then keep them coming!! Bonne journée, Robert Ps: Life is meant to be lived. You should put that in a t-shirt, frame etc Hallelooo!!

10 French Halloween Costumes You’ll Love
By: Author David Issokson
Posted on Published: September 28, 2023 - Last updated: April 29, 2024
The most frightful time of the year is approaching fast. For Francophiles or anyone looking for original Halloween costumes, we’ve found ten fun and unique ideas to add a French twist to trick-or-treating. Six for women and four for men, with all the relevant information.
Marie-Antoinette Halloween Costume
If she were alive today, France’s last queen might have said, “Let them eat Halloween candy.”
The wife of the unfortunate Louis XVI met her fate on the guillotine in Paris with grace. One of the most famous French women lived a life of excess, epitomized by the (probably untrue) story of her telling the hungry masses to “eat cake. ” It all came to a bloody end in 1793, as the French Revolution claimed its most famous victim.
To get you started, you’ll want to get dressed up in a costume for the period with a wardrobe fit for a Bourbon queen. Blood stains are optional.
See prices and reviews
Could there be anything more ghoulish than a queen who lost her head?
French Lady Outfit
With cliches dialed up to 11, nobody will doubt you have dressed as a French woman for Halloween with this costume , complete with beret, striped top, scarf, and baguette.
It’s a classic caricature, but not without accuracy. After all, a white striped top is an iconic Frech fashion item, known as a marinière or Breton shirt.
Worn by sailors ( marins ) based in Brittany ( Breton ), it was later popularized by fashion designer Jean Paul Gaultier, becoming an everyday clothing item known more simply as a tricot rayé (striped top).
Of course, berets, sunglasses, and scarves are enduring fashion items straight from the French Riveria. Fellow revelers may even think you forgot to dress up.
The fake baguette will give it away (a real one would get eaten). And yes, you will see underarm baguettes across France. Although rarely as a French Halloween accessory.
Moulin Rouge Dancer Apparel
Cancan your way into Halloween with the classic cabaret dancer costume .
The Moulin Rouge is emblematic of the Parisian Belle Epoque, aided by the paintings of Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec , who occasionally depicted the glitzier side of the once notorious red-light district.
The Moulin Rouge popularized the cancan dance that became symbolic of cabaret. And whether you can lift your legs to the sky or not, this French Halloween costume will stand out.
Mona Lisa Halloween Costume
La Gioconda, AKA Mona Lisa, is the star exhibit at the Louvre Museum. Her impenetrable smile graces the most famous painting in the world. And the most bizarre Halloween costume on this list.
Art fans will know the most celebrated painting in France is actually Italian. Painted by the Renaissance legend Leonardo da Vinci and brought to France by King François I.
This déguisement (fancy dress costume) can be flung on with little effort. All you need to complete this instantly recognizable French Halloween costume is an enigmatic smile.
Joan of Arc Dress
Jeanne d’Arc (Joan of Arc) is arguably the most famous of all French women .
The so-called Maid of Orléans inspired the French army to lift the siege of Orléans, starting a chain of events that would lead to France reversing their losses during the Hundred Years War .
Burned at the stake by the vengeful English army aged only 19, she left a legacy that has never been forgotten.
The Joan of Arc costume reflects her pious beliefs (she claimed God spoke to her directly) and is sure to start a conversation at any Halloween party.
French Maid Outfit
Few Halloween costumes are more suited to adults-only parties than a French Maid outfit .
How the sexy French Maid outfit became a fetish could fill a Netflix documentary series. However, the black uniform with white trim started life as a simple outfit worn by maids in France during the 19th century.
Later, it became an essential part of the burlesque wardrobe and a playful attire that would start tongues wagging. If that sounds like your Halloween, this outfit with a dress, apron, and headband is the ticket.
Napoleon Bonaparte Halloween Costume
The Little Corporal was a giant of history and probably the most famous of all Frenchmen .
The former artillery commander from Corsica left an indelible mark on French and European culture as an all-conquering General who became an all-powerful emperor.
You won’t have to drop hints about who you’ve come as this Halloween. This Napoleon costume comes with all the finery of his preferred battlefield ensemble as a Colonel of the Grenadiers. It is an image captured in many paintings.
The red, white, and blue of the Tricolor are on full display, from the trousers to the medal-adorned jacket topped with golden epaulets.
Don’t forget to tuck your hand in for that essential statesmanlike finish, keeping one free for the Halloween punch.
Frenchman Costume
After the French woman’s costume, we had to include one for the guys.
This unmistakable Frenchman’s Halloween costume tones down the vivid colors. Otherwise, the marinère , beret, and scarf are all present. But instead of a baguette, you get a mustache to complete the effect.
It’s a humorous and affectionate nod to a French stereotype that has never got old.
Vincent van Gogh Costume
This Dutchman became an honorary Frenchman, moving first to Paris and the South of France in the last few years of his tragic life.
Many of Vincent van Gogh’s works ended up in the Musée d’Orsay in Paris, including pieces from his final artistic burst shortly before his suicide. Poignantly, fame only came after his death, preceded by a life of poverty and overwhelming mental health problems.
This Vincent van Gogh Halloween costume is a work of art in its own right. A hat, shirt front, jacket, and tie apparently draw inspiration from the impressionist’s self-portraits with hints of his best-known paintings, including Starry Night. It’s a surefire conversation starter.
French King Costume
Our 10th and final French Halloween costume idea steals from centuries of gallic history.
It might not be fit for un roi de France , but this French king costume could be a trick-or-treat highlight. Not least because it is modeled on Louis XVI, who lost his head on the guillotine alongside his wife (and earlier entry) Marie Antionette. A matching Halloween ensemble made for couples.
This dazzlingly white outfit features a jabot neckband, pants, and a resplendent jacket with gold trim. A wig and stockings are available for the full effect. Red wine stains will only enhance the look. After all, this Frenchman met the bloodiest of ends.
With that sobering thought, we sign off and wish you a Joyeux Halloween.
If the bloody history of the French monarchy tickles your curiosity, our list of French Halloween vocabulary may interest you and provide further spooky ideas!

16 of the best and weirdest French Halloween costumes
Looking to add a Gallic flavour to your Halloween party? Whether you’re aiming for classic French style, or something stereotypical – even borderline offensive – there’s a costume out there for you.
France’s most famous Frenchman, today recognised as one of history’s greatest hat wearers and generals; a man who intimidated the British so much they pretended he was short to feel better about themselves. Costume made in Britain and available in sizes ‘Small’, ‘Tiny’ and ‘Weeny Weeny Poo Pants’.
Image: halloweencostumes.com
Available to buy at halloweencostumes.com
Marie Antoinette
“Let them eat Halloween candy!” This Halloween dress up as France’s most-famous queen, either sexy-style with a short skirt and candyfloss hair, or as a headless victim of the revolution . You decide!
Image : halloweencostumes.com
Fancy some swordplay this ‘Ween? Then what about being one of the heroes of the classic Alexandre Dumas novel, The Three Muskateers ? Ladies love nothing better than a man in an eighties Cher wig and a fake beard. Good luck.
Moulin Rouge dancer
Want to to flash your undergarments this Halloween? Well yes you can-can! Outfit comes with authentic tiny hat, absinthe and syphillis.
Joan of Arc
A woman who led an army to war – and got to do it while apparently wearing yoga pants. Let’s hope they’re flame retardant.
French maid

Available to buy at halloweencostumes.com and eBay.com
Mime Artist
Is this the perfect costume? Sensible trousers? Check. National stereotype? Check. Character allows you to not talk to people at parties? CHECK! Bonus: sparkly beret! You cannot lose.
Why overthink it? Sometimes you just want to be a French man with a moustache wearing a beret and a stripey shirt. Simples.
(Also the reviews are gold: “ it’s a stereotype costume, but I have some French heritage, so I owned it”, “ I bought this beret for my husband and he has such a large size head that he has to go to specialty shops to purchase “, and “The moustache is a small patch of fur… I didn’t wear it.”)

Wear this and you will definitely be the most beautiful architectural monument in the room (just as long as that slut the Statue of Liberty doesn’t show her face).
French Poodle
Who’s a good girl? You is. Yes you IS. I mean she doesn’t look like a dog but those Halloween cats aren’t convincing either. You’re not going to offer them some cat food then be all, “Oh my God, I’m so sorry, I thought you were a real cat.” Nope, this is a sexy dog and – for one day a year – that’s absolutely fine.

The Mona Lisa
Don’t tell me she isn’t French. 1) Lives in central Paris. 2) Wears black. 3) Completely unreadable facial expression means I can’t tell if she hates me or not. SHE’S FRENCH.

Marine Le Pen

French Style: Venetian Carnival Costumes in France
- French Style , Rhône Alpes
Thierry Quique is a man with a rather beautiful obsession – the Venetian Carnival.
In 2010, whilst Thierry was out walking with a friend in the lovely medieval village of Yvoire, Haute-Savoire, he had one of those “Eureka” moments. It was, he felt sure, the perfect setting for a Venetian Carnival parade. The beautiful and ancient town much admired by tourists and officially classified as one of the most beautiful villages in France – it was absolutely right for dressing up in the style of carnival which he had admired for so long. The mystery and magic of the Carnival, everything from the silk gloves to the plumed hats, the silent parades – appeals to Thierry’s creative side and the town of Yvoire not far from Annecy, famous for its Venetian Carnival – it seemed to him a match made in heaven.
Thierry explained to all of his friends what he wanted to do and persuaded many of them to join in with him. An avid photographer and admirer of the style of Venetian Carnival, he was gratified that so many of his friends wished to support his dream and Rêveries Vénitiennes was born.
Since their first Carnival in 2011 it has become a passion for the members of the group who promote the Venetian Carnival style around France. They are invited to visit towns where their stunning costumes are guaranteed to be a crowd-pleaser and wow onlookers.
Members of Rêveries Vénitiennes dress for events in gorgeous, sumptuous gowns and suits, filled with exquisite detail, sequins and beads, these unique costumes take many hours of hard work to design and make. Traditional porcelain masks hide their features. These men and women who adore the style of Venetian Carnival costume meet at organised locations to parade in all their fabulous finery, gathering crowds of admirers and hordes of photographers wherever they go.
The Venetian Carnival history is an ancient one – the word carnival is from the Latin for “Farewell, meat!” As Lent required people to fast, all perishable food such as meat had to be used and this created an excuse for a party – particularly in the rather licentious and party loving town of Venice.
The history of the Venitian Carnival tradition really began after 1162 when pigs and bulls were slaughtered for a feast. Just over a century later, the donning of masks is mentioned in documents of the day. The wearing of masks at the Carnival allowed participants to behave in ways they might not had others been able to identify them. It allowed people from different social backgrounds to meet and created a feeling of anonymity. The masks are traditionally made from porcelain, leather or glass; no one really knows where the idea came from.
The heyday of Venetian Carnival was in the 1700s when the “Grand Tour” was at its peak – rich young noble men enhancing their education with a tour of historic sites of Europe took full advantage of the pleasure of Carnival. After that the Carnival became less popular until a revival in 1979 and it is now a major attraction in the Venetian Calendar.
The Venetian Carnival in France is also becoming increasingly popular thanks to people like Thierry Quique. The Venetian Carnival at Annecy attracts thousands of visitors every year and is a firm favourite on the French tourist calendar.
If you’re interested to join Thierry and his group or to know where they will be parading next – see the website for Rêveries Vénitiennes.

As a hub of sorts including fashion, cuisine, art and architecture, Paris is what many people think of when it comes to French culture. Yet that is a rookie mistake… because life outside of the City of Lights is very different and varies by region. Prepare to set sail on a wondrous journey through the enchanting realm of France culture, where each step uncovers a dazzling tapestry of customs and traditions that have shaped this exquisite nation. From the iconic streets of Paris to the quaint countryside, every corner of La Belle France beckons with its own unique allure, inviting you to immerse yourself in its rich heritage.

Saratov: The city that almost came up overnight

Once one of the Russian Empire’s largest cities, Saratov is home to a conservatory, one of Russia’s most famous and oldest circuses and perhaps the finest art collection in provincial Russia. Throw in long pedestrian avenues, the legacy of the Volga Germans and the mighty Volga River and you start to see the fuller picture of this city that was literally built over night.
Saratov is a great place to feel the immense grandeur of the Volga River. Saratov offers an unusual collection of architecture from the pre-revolutionary and Soviet period and its large center makes for an excellent place to take an aimless walk through centuries of Russian history literally living on top of each other.
The city which was built over night
Ukek, a Golden Horde city, was situated nearby until Tamerlane destroyed it in 1395. Saratov was founded in 1590 and soon became a popular stop between Europe and Asia. Located 858 kilometers southeast of Moscow, it was one of three lower Volga cities founded as forts to protect recently acquired territories at the Empire’s edge over a five-year span (1586-1590), along with present day Volgograd and Samara. Saratov was actually constructed significantly north of the city. The wooden buildings were disassembled, sent downstream and erected quickly allowing Saratov to appear practically overnight.

By the early 1800s Saratov had grown to be a significant port city and the railroad arrived in 1870. The city experienced a boom during World War II as many factories and institutes were relocated here, although it was closed during Soviet times as it was the site of a military aircraft manufacturing plant.
Saratov and neighboring city Engels (combined metro area today of over one million) were home to hundreds of thousands of Germans in the 18 th , 19 th and early 20 th centuries. Originally invited by the Tsars to spur agricultural development in the area, the Volga Germans went on to hold prominent regional roles. Many were deported to Central Asia and Siberia during World War II, with many of those that remained immigrating to Germany in the 1980s.

The bridge connecting Saratov with its twin city across the Volga, Engels, was the longest in the Soviet Union when completed in 1965 at 2,826 meters long. The architecture is quite diverse on the Volga waterfront with luxury apartments mingling with log cabins. Make sure to see the Balneological Clinic for an example of an old sanatorium. There are numerous cafes along the river, as well as a pedestrian zone. From the River Port at St. Naberezhnaya Kosmonavtov 7a it is possible to take a cruise as far south as Astrakhan, as far north as St. Petersburg and all major cities on the Volga River, as well as Moscow. Cruises operate from early May until mid-September and a schedule can be found here: rech-vokzal.ru .

Surprisingly, Saratov went three full centuries before a promenade was built along the river. One of the main attractions here is a statue dedicated to the first man in space, Yuri Gagarin. Gagarin first moved to Saratov to continue his studies in 1951 at the Saratov Industrial Technical School. He studied tractors and spent his weekends volunteering at a local aviation club where he learned to fly. He also worked part time on the Volga docks.
A walk through the city center
The city’s main artery is Moskovskaya St., which leads from the Volga through the heart of the city, however, Saratov’s soul can be found on Prospekt Kirova, one of Russia’s first pedestrian zones. Until 1917 it was known as Nemetskaya St. in honor of the large German population. Many sights are located here, as well as dozens of bars and restaurants. Several statues dot the landscape including a bronze statue of an accordion player and one of a young man waiting for his love with flowers as inspired by this song about Saratov .

The Leonid Sobinov State Conservatory opened in 1912 at Kirova 1 not far from the entrance to the charming Park Lipki. At the time it was only the third in the country as Saratov was then the third largest city in Russia and the largest on the Volga (16 th largest today).
The Nikitin Bothers Circus at the top of Kirova (away from the Volga) was the second stationary circus in Russia (the first is in Penza). This is probably the best place in town to see tigers and clowns under the same roof. Across the street is the Kryty Rynok, a covered market built in 1916. Behind the market is an example of a classic Soviet movie palace, Pobeda; it opened in 1955. If walking away from the circus towards the Volga there are well-preserved examples of proletarian communal buildings constructed in the 1920s on the left.

Also of note on the street is the cinema Pioneer at Kirova 11. It was previously a Catholic Church serving the German population. Partially destroyed during the Soviet period, a fragment of the original wall can be seen inside.
One block parallel to Kirova is Teatralnaya Square. Here is the Saratov Academic Theater of Opera and Ballet , built in 1875. Across the square is Radishchev Museum , featuring one of the finest art collections in provincial Russia. Named for the controversial 18 th century writer who grew up nearby (and whose grandson provided the initial collection), this was the first art museum in Russia to open its doors to the public. Today it counts numerous famous Russian painters in its collections including works by Repin, Shishkin and Falk.
The bridge out of the past to the future

One of the city’s most famous residents is Nikolai Chernyshevsky (1828-1889). A socialist, philosopher and writer, he is best known for his 1863 utopian novel, “What is to be Done?” It tells the story of Vera Pavlovna, an emancipated woman and the ascetic revolutionary Rakhmetov, who sleeps on nails and eats raw steak. The book had an enormous influence on Lenin; today the main public university is named for him and his museum is located at Chernyshevskogo St. 142.
Park Pobedy is the city’s largest and is located at about three kilometers from the Volga. It hosts the National Village of the Peoples of Saratov Region, an open-air architectural and ethnographic museum.
