7 Things I Want From Reformation After Seeing These French It-Girl Outfits

From what I hear, there's nothing like autumn in Paris. I'm sure it has to do with the light, leaves, and perfect air temperature. I hope to find out why firsthand one of these days, but for now, I'll just be over here staring wistfully at stylish French women's fall outfits. Something else I've been doing is staring wistfully at Reformation's new fall arrivals, and yes, quite a few of them happen to be very "autumn in Paris."

If, like me, you enjoy modern-day Parisian style and Reformation, you couldn't have clicked on a better link. Below, I shared seven standout French-girl outfits I recently came across, along with the key trend to buy from Reformation if you want to emulate the look. If we can't be sipping espresso in a sidewalk cafe in the 11th arrondissement, we canat least dress like we are.Keep scrolling for the chic fall outfit inspiration and to shop the most Parisian trends at Ref.

Polo Shirts

Polo shirts are *the* preppy basic trend of 2025, and French women have embraced it with open arms. I have a feeling this is a trend that Ref will continue leaning into as the season marches on.

Checks

Classic check print is suddenly everywhere, and of course, Reformation is finding cool things to do with it. I think we can expect the French to put a pause on polka dots for now to make way for plaid this fall.

The transitional piece the French are choosing to pair with flats instead of pants is long skirts. Whether you dress them up or down, you're guaranteed to look elegant.

Dark Denim Everything

Speaking of elegant, when it comes to denim, it doesn't get richer than a dark wash. In fact, I predict dark denim will trump lighter washes in Paris for the foreseeable future.
