Isabel Marant’s customers have been dressing like quintessentially stylish French girls since 1994 – long before dressing Like a French Girl became a global phenomenon. The designer’s easy jumpsuits, short skirts, and comfortable shoes embody the sort of impossible, laid-back confidence best worn with a sexy red lip and a Parisian accent.

Marant has mastered this formula so thoroughly she’s able to make the unlikeliest of styles seem somehow bohemian. Take, for example, these diamond earrings from the spring 2019 collection. Diamonds are not exactly compatible with the free spirit of French beatniks, but Marant designed hers to look like delicate little kites. Perhaps with some imagination, they could be considered bohemian for a night at the disco.
