We’ve already outlined the trends for autumn 2021 in our trend report, which covered all the noteworthy looks you need to know. However, if you’re short on time, we’ll sum it up—they’re somewhat eclectic.

We just thought it would be interesting to find out what these knowledgeable French fashion types are gravitating towards when it comes to autumn’s top trends. Scroll on to see what they said.
