The elder half of our favorite Fanning duo just stepped out in full-on French girl style in Paris. Clad simply in an oversized white button-down, dark-wash straight-leg jeans, and black leather ballet pumps, Dakota Fanning perfectly captures the “je ne sais quoi” vibe that is innate to those who dwell in the City of Light.

Recently nominated for a 2026 Emmy award for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie for All Her Fault, perhaps Fanning jetted off to Paris for a weekend of celebration and shopping. A habitual fixture of Paris Fashion Week alongside younger sis, Elle, the classic American beauty looks at ease in such a quintessentially French outfit. She knows accessories are essential, perfectly pairing her ballet heels with an Hermès Birkin bag.
