Looking for some French style inspo? Check out these classic fashion-forward films and TV shows.

Paris' prominent influence on fashion has been here for decades. From esteemed designers to chic Parisian street style, French fashion's impact has no limits. From&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/film-tv/audrey-hepburn-biopic-rooney-mara-apple-tv-plus" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Audrey Hepburn</a> in Funny Face to <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/gossip-girl-blair-waldorf-leighton-meester-reboot-2022" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Leighton Meester</a> in&nbsp;Gossip Girl, if you're looking for some French style inspo, here are six fashion-centered films and tv shows that birthed some of the best onscreen costume moments.

Funny Face

Audrey Hepburn, 1957

Audrey Hepburn's wardrobe in&nbsp;Funny Face&nbsp;is the epitome of French fashion. Along with the film mostly taking place in Paris, Hepburn's entire wardrobe for the film was created by the coveted designer <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/audrey-hepburn-givenchy-little-black-dress-history" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Givenchy</a>. Hepburn and Givenchy actually went on to build a life-long friendship and have collaborated several times throughout their respective careers. The designer is also responsible for the actress's iconic black dress from the opening scene in <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/jewelry-moments-chanel-cartier-breakfast-at-tiffanys" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Breakfast at Tiffany's</a>.

Emily in Paris

<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/film-tv/netflix-renews-emily-in-paris-seasons-3-and-4" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Emily in Paris</a> is the modern fashion series giving everyone all the French inspo they could need. The show displays a fresh take on classic French fashions. It's colorful and flirty just like the cast. Hopefully, with the upcoming third season, we'll have even more French style inspo to add to the list.&nbsp;

Yves Saint Laurent

This French biopic follows the career journey of renowned designer&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/art/yves-saint-laurent-fashion-exhibition-paris-six-museums-louvre" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Yves Saint Laurent</a>. From his time as Artistic Director for <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/christian-dior-iconic-styles-bags-shoes" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dior</a> to the final show of his career. Along the way, the film shows his creative thought process and the muses he meets to inspire his craft. The film is a glimpse into the mind of YSL and how the designer came to be. Of course, the biopic fleets through some of his most iconic designs, like the timeless <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/artist-piet-mondrian-yves-saint-laurent-dress-history" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mondrian dress</a> and his sleek power suits. This film is a must-watch for Parisian style.

Gossip Girl

<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/best-gossip-girl-fashion-moments-blair-waldorf-serena-van-der-woodsen" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Gossip Girl</a> is a series about lies, gossip, and, most importantly&ndash;fashion. The show takes place in one of the largest fashion capitals and sometimes goes off location to film in another. The Paris episode is loved by many and produced some of the best looks during the series run. While the show isn't on anymore, there's nothing wrong with a quick rewatch binge. &nbsp;

The Collection

The Collection follows a Paris fashion house post World War II. After the war, Parisian fashion seemed like an afterthought. It was the age of revivals. The series tells of two brothers rebuilding their business from scratch. In the midst of the dramatic twists and turns, the show was still able to convey the glitz and glamour of French fashion.&nbsp;

Moulin Rouge

Moulin Rouge tells the story of two forbidden lovers&mdash;an English poet and a cabaret singer. The musical details their secret affair and Satine's (<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/five-things-you-may-not-know-about-nicole-kidman" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Nicole Kidman</a>) complicated life at the Moulin Rouge lounge. The period costumes are stunning and add to the film's glamorous yet tragic story.&nbsp;
