Audrey Tautou and the Eternal Chic of the French Girl: How to Infuse a Boyish Cut with Sex Appeal

If the perennially tousled Lou Doillon and Caroline de Maigret are the embodiment of the modern, laid-back parisienne, Audrey Tautou is a testament to the timeless appeal of the classic garçonne. Spotted at the Longchamp flagship store opening in Paris, the actress’s ruffled pixie radiated the same tomboyish appeal as her wide-leg Marc Jacobs pants and crisp white Isabel Marant shirt. Red lips, flushed cheeks, and exaggerated lashes added a feminine note, offering convincing evidence that the key to Tautou’s gamine sensuality is a perfectly counterbalanced sense of androgyny.
