Let me just state two things before we go any further: The Frenchman, who has been credited with bringing a much-needed fresh and youthful aesthetic to Paris Fashion Week, is self-taught and was merely 19-years-old when he launched his label.

From oversized and slouchy tailoring in vivid colours to updates on classic accessories like straw bags and hats: here’s how to work the new-new French Girl look.
