Despite only touching down in the French capital on Monday, Margot Robbie is ensuring her visit is as fashion-forward as the designs and denizens that call this place home. For her first outing, she wore a romantic ensemble that had Madame Du Barry energy in a dreamy midi skirt from Gold Coast-based brand With Jéan (coincidentally where she’s also from) and a black corset that would’ve earned Catherine Earnshaw’s tick of approval.
Then, for a casual coffee run, she followed that with a laid-back coastal look that would’ve felt right at home if she were frolicking along one of Queensland’s famous beaches, wearing a knitted tube top from Frankies Bikinis, denim shorts and suede sandals by Tory Burch. Now, after delivering a whirlwind of fashion moments that are littered with references, she’s stepped out in an archetypal Parisian silhouette.

As a Chanel ambassador, Robbie has spent years dressing up in the French maison’s finest couture creations and signature designs, so it’s only fitting that she embraces this sophisticated uniform for her latest outfit. The look in question consisted of a white, mod-esque minidress, a wide-brim hat and cut-out heels, the latter being the new-season successor to the timeless slingback.

Though it would be remiss of us to say that this look was all Robbie’s own, she was wearing this as part of her costume whilst filming the upcoming Oceans Eleven prequel; the outfit did remind us of the sleek power that lies in wearing minimal and timeless pieces. From Christian Dior’s New Look to Yves Saint Laurent’s Le Smoking jackets, the best French pieces are ones that don’t adhere to a certain decade or trend cycle, continually offering a sophisticated touch through their effortlessness and polished tailoring.
With filming for the movie currently underway, we can expect to see the Oscar nominee out and about in more glamorous ensembles, especially when the production heads to the Côte d’Azur for scenes set at the Monte Carlo casino. Though we’re far off the press tour, it’s easy to imagine exactly what Robbie and her long-term stylist Andrew Mukamal are planning: Grace Kelly elegance, touches of femme fatale allure that nod to Alfred Hitchcock’s famous icy blondes and pieces that Coco Chanel herself would’ve selected for her starry clients back in the day. Until then, relive the fantasy by re-creating this look yourself, courtesy of these stylish pieces.
