I Asked My Chic French Friend What She's Buying From Zara This Month—These 17 Pieces Got Her Approval
From elegant wool coats to perfectly cut denim, these Zara finds have French-girl style written all over them. Click here to shop.

I spend a large portion of my professional life dissecting French fashion. There's a certain effortlessness to the way French women dress that's difficult to put into words, but after years as a Shopping Editor, I like to think I've cracked the formula. And after one look at Zara's new-in section, I knew I'd found a whole host of pieces that wouldn't look out of place in a chic Parisian wardrobe.
From pintuck-detail poplin shirts and straight-leg denim to V-neck wool jumpers, sleek leather bags and gathered loafers, Zara's latest collection is a masterclass in expensive-looking French style. The outerwear is particularly strong, too, with elegant wool coats and timeless jackets that could easily pass for designer.
Of course, you don't need to live in Paris—or have a designer budget—to master the look. Below, I've handpicked the chicest pieces from Zara's new-in section that capture that elusive French-girl aesthetic. Keep scrolling to shop my edit.
